Hollywood actress and POP singer, Selena Gomez, has revealed why she would be deleting her Instagram account.
In a now deleted post she shared on her Instagram story a few hours ago, she stated how she feels disturbed over the current state of the world.
In her first post, she highlighted how she has been away from her social media because she couldn’t take seeing the poor ones going through the results of the war and hardships that broke out.
Following a huge backlash she received after her post, Selena had revealed that she would be deactivating her Instagram account of 430m followers.
“I’ve been taking a break from social media because my heart breaks to see all of the horror, hate, violence and terror that’s going on in the world. People being tortured and killed or any act of hate towards any one group is horrific. We need to protect all people, especially children and stop the violence for good. I’m sorry if my words will never be enough for everyone or a hashtag. I just can’t stand by innocent people geting hurt. That’s what makes me sick. I wish I could change the world. But a post won’t,” her lengthy post read.
In a follow-up post, she wrote, “I’m taking a break and deleting my Instagram. I’m done. I do not support any of what’s going on.”
The singer is the most followed female Instagram user in the world. A quick peek shows she is still on the platform.
