Selena Gomez boasts an impressive pop résumé: 3 Billboard #1s ("Come & Get It," "Lose You to Love Me," and her feature on "Taki Taki") and 11 Top 10 hits, including smashes like "Good for You," "Same Old Love,"and "Calm Down" (Remix). Her albums, from Stars Dance to Rare, have debuted in the Top 10, with Revival going platinum. Known for her understated vocals and minimalist production, she's evolved far beyond her Disney roots. But with streaming-era dominance and no album Grammy nods, does she qualify as a true MPG?

 

 



 

 
 

No. She had a cute moment during the Revival era and in the mid 2010's, but, MPG she is not. 

Yes.

 

Major Petty Girl

2015-2020 yes

 

(Not particularly among the A-lists, but def a lite MPG like Gracie right now)

No but she is on the following tier and has many successful collabs/droplets

I love her = she's a MPG

I hate her = she is not

? 

I'm ngl I don't feel like she particularly evolved at all. Her acting was better in Wizards than Murders (IMO)… her singing was better during Disney… she's not terrible but it almost feels like she got worse which may be due to her health issues. Ik she had a good run of hits during the second half of the 2010s, but nothing really wows me in terms of artistry or talent. She's a household name but not really as a musician.

Gracie lowkey wishes 

She's a B-List pop girl… wouldn't put her up there with Rihanna and Taylor but she's definitely right under them. 

Didn't she say she was quitting music like less than 6 months ago?

 

Massively pretentious girl? Yes.

 

Main pop girl? No.

You just made that up 

not anymore 

Of course. She's so famous to not be one and no one in the real world would question that if asked, only stan world. 

Just today i saw a viral tiktok about how she finds success in everything  Rare beauty was everything she needed to be solidified in every girls head. 

 

And talking about music ofc she's not only famous, she's also very stable on her music success. 117k in 2015, 116k in 2020 and 120k in 2025 Billboard album debuts. Not everyone could be that stable with albums in 5 and 5 years AT ALL. 

She was also #1 overall in Monthly Listeners on Spotify during droplets era and that's hard, not even 10 female artists got there. 

 

she's in a very particular spot that doesn't put her high with the big girls like Gaga, Bey, Taylor and etc but her name is always there. even her flops are still bigger than most of her peers flops

Selena Quintanilla will always be. 

Miss Gomez is a cute girl.

Non-MPG Selena Gomez:
117k in 2015, 116k in 2020 and 120k in 2025 Billboard album debuts

#1 on Hot 100

#1 on Billboard 200 (3 albums)

#1 on UWC

#1 on Global Spotify

#1 on Monthly Listeners - Spotify

#1 on Apple Music

#1 on Artist 100

Insenely famous

 

 

imagine if she was 

11 top tens?

She's pop girl, but not a main pop girl

 

That being said, she had a cute moment with the locals this year with Bluest Flame, and it's kinda mad how big Calm Down was too

No. Even Hillary Duff and Jessica Simpson are more likely to be called MPGs since they have multi-platinum albums. Selena's album stats are abysmal. Her biggest era (Revival) is at 6 million CSPC.

If she can have her own Oreos, then yes she's a MPG 

She can have all the hits she wants but shes not an album seller which is one of the things that could get you to a MPG status. Also she lacks the ambition on music, she always said it's not her passion so it's lowkey impressive all of her achievements with little talent and effort while other girls work hard and can't even get close to her "flop" numbers
