Selena Gomez’s song about closure from Justin Bieber
During a 2020 interview with NPR, the Only Murders in the Building star opened up about writing her hit song Lose You To Love Me, which was also her first number-one song on the Billboard Hot 100. She explained that the pop song gave her a sense of closure which she did not receive after her previous relationship ended. Gomez added that she wrote it as a self-love anthem as she dealt with heartbreak and tried to love herself again after the split.
The Come and Get It hitmaker said she was “very proud” of the 2019 song and that it has a different meaning to her as compared to when she wrote it. “I felt I didn’t get a respectful closure, and I had accepted that, but I know I needed some way to just say a few things that I wish I had said,” she divulged. The former Disney actress continued, “It’s not a hateful song; it’s a song that’s saying I had something beautiful and I would never deny that it wasn’t that.”
