Selena Gomez Calls Social Media Dangerous

Selena Gomez says social media is a dangerous influence in modern society.

The 26-year-old singer and actress discussed the effect of Twitter and Instagram on young people while promoting her film The Dead Don’t Die Wednesday at the Cannes Film Festival.

“Our world is going through a lot,” Gomez said at a press conference. “I would say, for my generation specifically, social media has really been terrible.

“It does scare me when you see how exposed these young boys and young girls are. They are not aware of the news,” she added. “It’s dangerous for sure. I don’t think people are getting the right information sometimes.”
