Selena Gomez confirms she is working on new music

Selena Gomez is a singer and actress who stars in the documentary My Mind & Me, a personal story about mental health, which was seven years in the making. She was on The Tonight Show on Monday night (December 5), starring Jimmy Fallon, to talk about her busy schedule. And she confirmed that there is more music to come. Gomez says she wants to change the subject and get back into the party atmosphere.

Does the new single suggest there's more music coming? “This is necessary”she tells Fallon. “Finally.”

The singer's last studio album was 2020's Rare, which, like its two predecessors, reached number one on the Billboard 200 chart.

“I’m so used to writing sad girl songs.”she tells Fallon, noting that the recording session is taking place in New York City. “But I’m ready to have fun and I think people will enjoy it.”

In addition to the new musical project, Gomez also confirmed that filming for the third season of Only Murders will begin in January.

And he also took the opportunity to describe his moment “oh my God” when Meryl Streep came to say “hey” and kiss your hand (“it was such a surreal moment”).

The artist spoke at length about her charitable and advocacy work, and the purpose it gives her. “I know I won’t stop this fight until the day I die. I think mental health is incredibly important and should be focused on.”

Gomez stuck around to play a round of “Egg Roulette” with Fallon, a game in which the host and guest take turns cracking eggs on their own heads without knowing which ones are cooked and which are raw.

If she was having flashbacks, it could be blamed on playing “Hot Ones” with Fallon in 2019, an eating game, she says, that ended with her throwing up in her dressing room.
