Selena Gomez: "I never really said I want to be a role model but it happened"

In a recent interview, Selena shared that she realizes that young girls look up to her, though she never sought out the opportunity.

“I never really said I want to be a role model. But then when it happened I was so down for it. I’m human, I’m not perfect. I make mistakes all the time, but I guess my job is to keep those mistakes to myself, which I’m already fine doing and just try to be the best I can be for those kids.”
