The singer dropped her new Spanish-language single, "De Una Vez," on Thursday, sharing the long-anticipated music with fans. "De Una Vez disponible ya. Este es el comienzo de algo que durante mucho tiempo había querido explorar. Espero que te guste tanto como a mí," she wrote on Instagram. "De Una Vez is out now. This is the beginning of something I’ve wanted to explore for so long. I hope you love it as much as I do." Gomez has been outspoken about embracing her heritage in her new music, and enlisted popular Latin creators to help convey her vision, teaming up with GRAMMY-winning producer Tainy, joined by Albert Hype, Jota Rosa and NEON16. She also enlisted the duo of Los Pérez—Tania Verduzco and Adrián Pérez—to direct the accompanying music video. The video features Gomez in a pink floral dress, with a crown of flowers and a glowing Immaculate heart, as she makes her way through an old-fashioned house that's full of colorful memories and magical symbolism. The lyrics are indicative of the performer's strength and growth as well, as she sings, in Spanish, "It doesn't hurt like before, the wounds have healed / I'm stronger alone / I have no regrets about the past, time with you cut my wings / I'm cured from you." Fans have been speculating about new Spanish-language music from Gomez for a while, and now it's finally a reality -- marking her first song in Spanish since 2018's "Taki Taki" and her first solo Spanish-language project since 2014's "Más," from her album For You. Gomez spoke with Apple Music's Zane Lowe about the song's release, opening up about how learning to be "patient with my choices" during the pandemic lockdown led to her being able to full embrace the Spanish-language project.

Selena Gomez is paying homage to her Hispanic heritage.
The superstar, a Texas native named after Tejano singer Selena Quintanilla, followed in her predecessor's footsteps by singing in Spanish on her new single "De Una Vez," out now.
"This is the beginning of something I’ve wanted to explore for so long. I hope you love it as much as I do," Gomez announced on Instagram Thursday.
Gomez's single was released with an accompanying music video that features the star in a pink floral print dress with a flashing heart that grows and glows on her chest as her broken heart mends over time.
In Spanish, she sings: "It doesn't hurt like before, the wounds have healed. I'm stronger alone. I have no regrets about the past, time with you cut my wings. I'm cured from you."
While talking about her new single with Apple Music's Zane Lowe, Gomez said she's wanted to create a Spanish project for over a decade because "I'm so, so proud of my heritage." In fact, Gomez believes she sounds better in Spanish.
"I actually think I sing better in Spanish," she said. "That was something I discovered. It was a lot of work, and look, you cannot mispronounce anything. It is something that needed to be precise, and needed to be respected by the audience I'm going to release this for."
She continued: "I think Spanish came very naturally to me. So there were obviously moments where there were specific timing, there were cues that were so quick that I had to learn that were challenging, but as far as being able to say, and speak, and roll my Rs, and do all of that, that's already in me, thank goodness."
Although Gomez says the pandemic taught her how to be "patient with my choices," she believes now is the "perfect timing" to branch out and explore music in another language.
"You're starting to listen to half-English, half-Spanish on the radio more than ever," she said. "And it's a really exciting time. And I think that I just hope that people understand how much I put my heart into this, and how amazing I feel about it."
This marks Gomez's first Spanish project since she was featured on DJ Snake's 2018 hit single "Taki Taki," alongside Cardi B and Ozuna.

Inspired by the same old love? Selena Gomez dropped a new track, called “De Una Vez” — and fans think it’s about her ex Justin Bieber. The Rare Beauty founder, 28, unveiled the Spanish-language single and its accompanying music video on Thursday, January 14. “This is the beginning of something I’ve wanted to explore for so long,” she wrote via Instagram. “I hope you love it as much as I do.” Selenators wasted no time in trying to decipher the song’s inspiration and hidden meaning. “De Una Vez,” which translates to “At Once,” appears to be about overcoming heartbreak. According to a translation from Genius, she sings: “I’m cured of you, I told you already / I don’t feel you here anymore, I don’t feel you anymore / You never knew, you didn’t know how to value me.” Why Selena Gomez Fans Think Her Song De Una Vez Is About Justin Bieber Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber.

Though Gomez has not confirmed what inspired her single, some fans are convinced that it is about the 26-year-old “Yummy” crooner. “Selena Gomez singing songs about Justin in Spanish so Justin can’t understand it smh,” one person wrote, while a second fan asked, “Is it just me or is #DeUnaVez by Selena Gomez yet another song about Justin Bieber?” A third user tweeted, “So you’re telling me Selena Gomez’s new song is about Justin Bieber AGAIN??”

Selena Gomez’s soft, romantic makeup in her “De Una Vez” video was made using Gomez’s Rare Beauty line, of course, and came together through a collaboration between Gomez and her longtime makeup artist Melissa Murdick. “Selena has an eye for beauty, obviously, so I typically approach her with some of my own ideas—thank goodness for Pinterest boards—and see what input she has from there!” Murdick says. For “De Una Vez” specifically, Murdick pulled runway images from Dolce & Gabbana spring 2014, Alexander McQueen’s spring 2016 runway, and more as the two pinned down the final look. “Selena’s look was meant to be a bit romantic,” Murdick said. “I wanted her to look very beautiful and feminine to match the overall feel of the video. I love how it all came together!”
