In addition, Selena highlighted how her involvement in charity work gives her a sense of purpose.
She’s prepared: “I’m so accustomed to writing melancholic songs centered around heartbreak because I excel in that genre, however, I am eager to incorporate more upbeat elements,” Selena expressed. “I genuinely believe that people will enjoy it.”

Jimmy expressed his adoration for a specific part of the documentary, wherein Selena revisited her hometown and her former residence.

Selena and Jimmy decided to kick off the show by playing an exciting game called Egg Roulette. They took turns picking an egg from a carton and smashing it against their foreheads, not knowing whether it was hard-boiled or raw. The challenge was to avoid smashing two raw eggs, as the first person to do so would lose the game.
Selena eagerly grabbed the first egg and bravely smashed it on her forehead, only to discover that it was perfectly cooked. It was then Jimmy’s turn, and luck was not on his side as he ended up with a messy raw egg dripping down his head.
Selena, feeling a mix of anticipation and apprehension, reached for the next egg. “I don’t have a good feeling about this one either,” she admitted. To her dismay, her instincts were correct as she ended up with another raw egg, causing the yolk to ruin her bangs.

Fresh egg: She reached for a fresh egg which was uncooked, causing the yolk to create a disheveled mess in her bangs.
Selena let out a disgusted scream as she realized that her last egg was still raw and had splattered all over her hair, leaving cracks all over it.
