Selena Gomez Covers The September Issue Of InStyle Magazine

Selena Gomez is on the cover of the September issue of InStyle magazine. The young singer is on the cover to promote her collaboration with COACH. Highlights are below.

On returning to fame after her time away: “I was in the countryside and never did my hair; I took part in equine therapy, which is so beautiful. And it was hard, obviously. But I knew what my heart was saying, and I thought, ‘OK, I think this has helped me become stronger for other people.’ When I came out, I was asked to go to the American Music Awards, and everyone around me was like, ‘Do whatever makes you comfortable.’ I didn’t want my fans to have a negative view of taking care of yourself, so I just went in head-on, and I’ll tell you, the first time stepping on that carpet was so overwhelming. I felt like my back was sweating.”

On being happy with her relationship with The Weeknd: “I really am. It’s great. I don’t depend on one area of my life to make me happy. It’s really important for me to love and nourish my friends and family and to make sure that I never get influenced by a guy. I’ve wanted to be in a strong headspace for years, and I really wasn’t. Before, I was so young and easily influenced, and I’d feel insecure. You want someone to add to your life, not to complete you, if that makes sense. I’m lucky because he’s more of a best friend than anything else.”

On the bag she created for COACH: “Coach’s executive creative director, Stuart Vevers—he’s an angel. He was just so open at figuring out our collaboration. If I’m working in film or writing or producing or fashion, I want to be surrounded by the best people so I can grow. I’m really proud of what I created.”

Below the jump you will find new behind the scenes videos from her shoot, the first look at her COACH bag, and another photo from the shoot. To check out more from her interview click here. Selena’s issue will be available on August 11!

As @LauraBrown99 writes in the issue, @SelenaGomez has a particularly potent power: Her celebrity comes not just from what she creates, how she looks, and whom she dates but from how she has suffered and picks herself up.
