MY MIND AND ME LYRICS SERIES
There’s no mention of her well-received return to TV on the popular Hulu series Only Murders in the Building, of her similarly endearing cooking show Selena + Chef, or her and her mother’s role in producing the controversial series 13 Reasons Why there’s only a brief reference to 2021’s Revelación, her first Spanish-language album. Pop star documentaries are almost always more interesting for what they leave out rather than include, but My Mind & Me, directed by Alek Keshishian – whose 1991 Madonna film Truth or Dare set the mold and remains the gold standard for the genre – is an especially intriguing amalgamation of choices. Talking heads who don’t appear for the rest of the film attest to the absolute hell Gomez was in.Īnd then, cut – to 2019, as Gomez recuperates from a blistering three years of tumult alluded to but not explored: a 2017 kidney transplant due to complications from the auto-immune disease lupus, a breathlessly covered reconciliation and final breakup with Justin Bieber, reconciliation with her family post-psychosis, another stay in a treatment facility with the diagnosis of bipolar disorder. The Revival tour was cancelled after 55 performances, as Gomez entered a psychiatric facility. The footage has all the hallmarks of a tour documentary – a relaxed, more profane version of Gomez in costume fittings and tour rehearsals a moment in which she cracks from the pressure, panicking through tears to friends and crew that nothing is good enough a montage of cities and stages and poses and cheers and crying, overwhelmed fans.
