From mother to daughter

Selena Gomez’s mother, Mandy Teefey, has finally opened up about the musician’s controversial decision to work with Woody Allen, who has been accused of sexual misconduct.

The Same Old Love hit-maker’s mom Mandy said she tried to convince her daughter it would not be good to work with the filmmaker on ‘A Rainy Day in New York’ but it fell “on deaf ears”.

Writing a comment on Instagram, Mandy noted, “No one can make Selena do anything she doesn’t want to. I had a long talk with her about not working with him and it didn’t click. There is no fall person here. No one controls her. She makes all her own decisions. No matter how hard you try to advice. It falls on deaf ears.” —ANI
