Selena Gomez And Stacey Abrams Collaborate On Discovery+ Music Documentary
According to Deadline, Selena Gomez and Stacey Abrams have joined forces to produce an upcoming music documentary for Discovery+, which began production on Wednesday (Dec. 14).
Won’t Be Silent, directed by Kristi Jacobson, is set to celebrate music by female artists who have had a global impact on various issues. “The powerful women we will be highlighting are not only talented, but they have been at the forefront of pushing culture forward and holding a mirror up to political and social injustices,” Gomez said in a statement obtained by the publication.
“Throughout history, women in music have used their art to raise awareness of issues affecting our country and the world. “Won’t Be Silent” is a tribute to the musicians who have made a difference in the world through their timeless music, according to Abrams.
Gomez’s latest project follows her recent introspective documentary, My Mind & Me, which details the star’s years-long struggles with mental health, lupus, heartbreak, and the highs and lows of fame.
“It’s okay to feel inadequate and to perceive yourself as complicated and complex. “It’s just about having a healthy relationship with how you talk to yourself, how you seek help, how you talk to other people,” Gomez said of what she hopes people will take away from the film at the film’s Los Angeles premiere. “I hope this starts a chain reaction of people saying, ‘Hey, I want to say something about my mental health. I’d like to talk about it and seek assistance.’ That is one of the most courageous things anyone can do. Even if this film only affects one person, I will consider myself the luckiest girl.”
