The most-followed woman, musician and actor on Instagram, Selena Gomez informed that she is stepping back from social media for a moment. 

Gomez, 31, with 430 million Instagram followers has been reported to announce that she is taking a hiatus last Monday on her Instagram Stories.

“…because my heart breaks to see all the horror, hate, violence and terror that’s going on in the world”. 

In her writing, she also mentioned that, “We need to protect all people, especially children, and stop the violence for good.”, and how her virtual voice on social media platforms would not be able to solve any conflicts. 

“I’m sorry if my words will never be enough for everyone or a hashtag. I just can’t stand by innocent people getting hurt. That’s what makes me sick. I wish I could change the world. But a post won’t.”

The star later shared a photo of her younger sister Gracie Elliot Teefey and wrote that she would “do anything for children and innocent lives”.
