New Delhi:
Selena Gomez broke into tears after US President Donald Trump announced illegal immigrants. The singer-actor expressed his feelings in a video on Instagram stories, which were later removed.
In the clip, Selena, dressed in a black dress, appeared at home because she recorded the message.
He said, “I just wanted to say that I am very sorry. All my people are being attacked. Children. I do not understand. I am very sorry, I wish I could do something, but I could not. I don’t know what to do. I will try everything, I promise. ,
With his message, he added “I am sorry” to his video and a Mexican flag.
While the video was removed shortly after, a fan page shared it by a fan on X (East).
