Selena Gomez's 5 Most Memorable Movies and TV Shows

Selena Gomez is a truly multitalented multimedia star. Not only is she an excellent singer and dancer, but she can act too! In fact, many of us got to know her first through TV and not her music career.

Tay-Tay-s BFF has certainly grown up right before our eyes, from a Disney teen star to one of the most recognized Latina actresses and singers in the world, and she's also a TV and movie producer, giving us many great shows like "Only Murders in the Building" and "13 Reasons Why" from behind the scenes.

Our 5 Favorite Selena Gomez Movies and TV Shows

For now, we are not looking at shows that she only produced but not starred in, but titles that she actually made an appearance in and left an indelible impact. These are her five most iconic roles, and they are not arranged in order:

Wizards of Waverly Place

For many of us, we got to know who Selena Gomez is because of Disney Channel's "Wizards Of Waverly Place," and her role as Alex Russo is still one of her most iconic to this day. According to L'Officiel, the show ran for four seasons spanning over five years, with its final episode becoming the most-watched final episode of any Disney Channel show, even winning an Emmy. However, this is just the beginning of Selena Gomez's career.

Spring Breakers

This is the role where Selena Gomez finally shed her teeny bopper persona and starred in one of her most provocative roles ever, "Spring Breakers." She plays Faith in the film and was certainly a much different role from her usual roles, which used to be much more family friendly.

The Hotel Transylvania Series

As for her family-friendly roles, her role as Mavis in the Hotel Transylvania series has proven to be one of her most iconic, even though it's just a voice-acting role. She voices a vampire who falls in love with a human, and according to Collider, her best performance in the series may be with "Hotel Transylvania 2" as her character deals with the complications of raising a half-human, half-vampire baby.

Selena + Chef

Selena Gomez cannot just sing, act, dance, and produce, but she can cook too! In her many roles, she finally gets to be herself here as she does what she actually loves, and that is cooking.

According to Screen Rant, this series came from the COVID-19 lockdowns, with Selena showing off her cooking skills and actually showing off her natural likeability by just being herself. This show has certainly reversed the opinions of many regarding her.

Only Murders in the Building

We cannot talk about her most iconic shows without what is probably her most popular work yet, "Only Murders in the Building." The series follows three true crime-obsessed strangers, and Selena Gomez has certainly shown that she can keep up with two of comedy's biggest legends, Martin Short and Steve Martin. She plays the straight man of the trio, Mabel Mora, and her two larger-than-life co-stars have certainly not overshadowed her in the role.
