Selena Gomez — How Selena Returned To Social Media

Selena had since returned to the world of social media but, not every social media platform is suitable for the star of “Only Murders In The Building.” She revealed that she’s on TikTok only.

“The only thing I have on my phone is TikTok because I find it to be a little less hostile. There are wonderful things about social media—connecting with fans, seeing how happy and excited they are and their stories. But usually that’s filtered through [for me now].
