The personal assistant to Selena Gomez
Personal assistants to celebrities have a lot of responsibility, especially if you're the assistant to Selena Gomez and you're in control of all her social media accounts. In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, Gomez revealed that she turned over control of her social media platforms to her trusted personal assistant after a breakup. In short, the actress and singer didn't want to see all of the mean comments that were pouring in.
Apparently, a lot of people had some very specific feelings and opinions about what was going on, and Gomez would rather not see it. So, the solution was to have her personal assistant take control of the social media until things calmed down.
