After a series of viral moments at the MTV VMAs 2023, Selena Gomez took to Instagram to express her desire to avoid future internet controversies.
In a heartfelt message on her Instagram Story, the multi-talented singer-actress declared, “I will never be a meme again. “I’d rather sit still than be dragged for being myself.” She signed off with the words “Much love,” emphasizing her commitment to authenticity.
Despite her resolution, Gomez inadvertently became a prominent meme during MTV VMAs 2023. Cameras captured her seemingly concerned reaction to Olivia Rodrigo’s explosive performance of her chart-topping hit Vampire.
Additionally, online attention was drawn to Gomez’s presence as she posed for photos during Demi Lovato’s career-spanning medley, which involved rearranged renditions of past hits transformed into hard rock anthems. Some viewers also noticed a less than enthused expression on Gomez’s face when controversial pop star Chris Brown’s name was announced.
