The Rare Impact charity fund was inaugurated by Selena Gomez in 2020. The main purpose behind the establishment was to care for the young generation’s mental health issues. What the charity raises in the form of money, goes to this sole cause of mental well-being.
The organization is also aided by Selena’s own company. The singer’s cosmetic company Rare Beauty embeds one percent of total output directly into the Rare Impact fund. The cosmetic brand was founded in 2019 by Selena herself.
Lionel Messi has been a soccer wizard for a long time in this era. The Argentinian made his debut for his country in 2005. He has played a respectable sum of 176 international matches for Argentina and netted over 100 goals for his country till now. The 36-year-old also won the FIFA World Cup 2022. He helped his nation to lift the trophy after a gap of 36 years.
Selena Gomez’s reaction when she saw the shot of Lionel Messi being saved
On her visit to a Major League Soccer (MLS) match between Los Angeles FC (LAFC) and Inter Miami, the pop singing sensation was amazed to see Argentina’s number ten’s skills. Selena gave an astounding reaction when Inter Miami’s Leo dribbled his way past LAFC defenders and took a shot at goal, which was saved.
However, the 36-year-old later made up for his miss. Inter Miami’s number ten made a stellar run again and assisted his striker Leonarda Campana in the last stages of the match. Also after the match, Selena Gomez had something to say about Leo. When asked if she wanted to leave a missive for the player she said, “I love you very much.”
Of course, fans all around the world are going gaga over Selena’s visit to the game. Her in-game reaction is doing rounds on social media. It remains to be seen if fans are further blessed with such moments, with the singer’s visit to a Leo’s match again.
