Selena Gomez responds to ’13 Reasons Why’ controversy

Selena Gomez has come out in defense of controversial TV drama 13 Reasons Why.

The 24-year-old actress and singer is an executive producer on the Netflix series, which has received widespread criticism for its graphic depictions of teenage rape and suicide.

We stayed very true to the book. Thats initially what [author] Jay Asher created, a beautifully tragic, complicated yet suspenseful story, and I think thats what we wanted to do, Gomez told the AP.

We wanted to do it justice and, yeah, [the backlash is] going to come no matter what, she added.

Its not an easy subject to talk about.

Ed Sheeran Will NOT Shit-Talk Katy Perry On Behalf Of Taylor Swift In Public Anyway!

Ed Sheeran is staying out of it!

The British crooner is very vocal about his friendship with Taylor Swift, so you’d think he’d have a strong take on the songstress’ most notorious case of Bad Blood.

But alas, the Galway Girl performer claims he doesn’t really know much about Tay’s longtime feud with Katy Perry!

In an interview with EW, the musician admitted he’s “supportive” of his friends privately but made it clear he wants to stay away from the dramz in the public eye!

When asked about his stance on the Katy/Taylor beef, he explained:

“I’ve learned one thing from this industry and it’s to stay away from drama. I can be supportive to my friends privately, but I want to stay away from it publicly. And I don’t know enough about it to get into it, but I’m always available to be supportive when it’s needed.”

More than fair. Why on earth would he want to get dragged into that mess? Especially since he and Katy seem to be on (relatively) good terms.

But based on his answer of being supportive “privately,” we wouldn’t be surprised if Eddy and Tay had some serious one-on-one smack talking sessions over several margaritas. Maybe they even wrote a song about it!

Can we at least have that visual, Ed?
