Who Says


I am not really a fan of these teen Disney girls. I just saw this music video of Selena Gomez's song called, Who Says and then the beat is kind of catchy plus the message of the song. I just read on Tumblr that this song is dedicated to Demi Lovato who, as far as I know, went to rehab because of some psychological disorder thing. I am not sure of that, though. There are many people hate Demi because of it. Okay, I am not making any sense with what I am saying because I, myself, don't know if what I am saying is true. In any case, my point is, it's really nice of Selena to dedicate such a song to Demi. The message of the song is really nice and I think many teens nowadays could really get a lesson from it. It's not about having the best look, the in-style clothes you wear, the thousands of money you have, or how many Blair Waldorf minions you have. It's about being you, the beauty of you. Many girls have been insecure with their looks, complaining how fat they are, how imperfect their faces are, because they want to be like those "perfect" fashion models. And their peers are keeping them down. It's one of the sad things that teenagers nowadays feel. I admit, I feel the same about myself. But I'm not ugly. I embrace the imperfections in me and doing so, I can say I am beautiful. It's the true standard of being beautiful, accepting yourself and being confident about yourself that you can do everything more than other people can. And that is what the song is about. I guess Selena wants to tell Demi that no matter how many people hate her, no matter what they say about her, no one can ever tell her she can't do it because she really can do it, everybody can.

Here's a little part from the lyrics:

wouldn't want to be anybody else. You made me insecure, Told me I wasn't good enough. But who are you to judge, When you're a diamond in the rough. I'm sure you got some things, You'd like to change about yourself. But when it comes to me, I wouldn't want to be anybody else. I'm no beauty queen. I'm just beautiful me. You've got every right, To a beautiful life. Who says, Who says you're not perfect, Who says you're not worth it, Who says you're the only one that's hurting. Trust me, That's the price of beauty. Who says you're not pretty, Who says you're not beautiful, Who says.
