Selena Gomez has hinted that she's getting ready to retire from making music after one more album.

Selena Gomez expressed during the podcast, "But I was doing my TV show [“Wizards of Waverly Place”] at the same time and I just found it really fun so I just kept going,” she added. “But the older I get, the more I’m kind of like, ‘I would like to find something to just settle on.'”

The 31-year-old, who has been involved in various aspects of entertainment, including acting and singing, mentioned that she feels she has one more album left in her before she shifts her focus to acting. She expressed,  “I do feel like I have one more album in me, but I would probably choose acting. I am gonna wanna chill because I’m tired.”

Selena Gomez has released three albums since her first solo project in 2013, with her latest one being Rare in 2020. Despite her success in the music industry, she hasn't gone on tour since her 2016 Revival tour. This tour was cut short due to her mental health struggles related to her lupus diagnosis, leading to a challenging time for the singer. In her Apple TV+ documentary, My Mind and Me, her former assistant Theresa shared a scary moment when Selena expressed not wanting to be alive.
