Containment doesn’t stop stars from continuing to make plans. The proof is Selena Gomez who’s about to start cooking. You’ve read correctly, the singer, actress, and producer is taking on a new challenge: to animate a cooking show from home. She will be joined in video by several great chefs. A program that will be broadcast on HBO Max from May 27, 2020, the date of the platform’s launch in the United States.
Selena Gomez behind the stove
You met her in The Wizards of Waverly Place on the Disney Channel (since available on Disney+). Then Selena Gomez, in addition to her acting career, became a world-renowned singer. And more recently, she also became producer of the 13 Reasons Why series and the documentary Living Undocumented. Now, the star is adding new things to her skills: animation and cooking. She will be presenting a cooking show on the HBO Max platform from May 27, 2020.
“We are really happy to have Selena since the beginning of HBO Max and to see her adventures in the kitchen,” said Sarah Aubrey, original content manager for HBO Max, in a press release relayed by Deadline. “Like many of us, she tried to improve her cooking skills during the containment,” she said.
Yes, it was during the containment that Selena Gomez filmed herself from her home. In the show, she will give you simple recipes to make at home. The girl who confessed to being “emotionally abused” by Justin Bieber when they were in a relationship will be joined at a distance by another chef in each episode. Together, they will cook all styles of food from home. And they will also give you some tips on how to make your dishes better. A program that will have 10 episodes.
“I’ve always proclaimed loud and clear my love for food”
In the same release, Selena Gomez confided that she has been a gourmet since she was a child: “I have always proclaimed my love for food loud and clear. I think I’ve been asked hundreds of times in interviews what my other career would have been, what I would have done, and I’ve always said it could have been fun to become a chef.
“I don’t have any training though,” she said, but “like many people, in containment at home, I find myself cooking a lot more and experimenting in my kitchen. Thanks to the confinement, the performer of “Good For You” has improved in the kitchen and will share this with her many fans.
Apart from this brand new project, Selena Gomez is also continuing with her music. On Instagram, she had an improvised studio set up in her home to record tracks during the containment.
