Rest easy, Instagrammers —
Selena Gomez’s profile is back!
The photo-sharing app’s most-followed celebrity set social
media ablaze after making her account private on Tuesday, but it turns out the
singer didn’t mean to lock up her pics in the first place.
A source confirmed to Access
Hollywood that Sel did not mean intend to go private. Once
the “Wolves” singer was made aware of her blunder, she quickly
switched back the settings.

The sudden profile change meant Selena’s 130 million
followers still had access to her snaps, but the rest of the world was out of
luck. Now, users can freely follow the
superstar again.
Initially, fans were
concerned when Selena allegedly shared a cryptic post before shuttering her
account.
Posting a screenshot of her recent Billboard interview to
Instagram Story, Sel wrote “Never will I let another human guess my words
ever again. Or invite them in my home. That is so hurtful.”

“The most ‘ridiculous’ part of that is no one knowing
my heart when I say things,” she added.
Social media speculated that
the 25-year-old superstar was upset that the interview alluded to her rekindled
romance with Justin Bieber — needing another break from the spotlight to cool
off.
While Selena’s account is back, she has yet to post anything
about the mishap on social media.
