"I vaped nicotine a lot," Selena Gomez says in an Instagram clip featured on Good Morning America. Her message to anyone considering it is brief: "It's just not worth it."

The singer's account is at the center of a GMA report that reached roughly 93,000 views in 13 hours, far beyond the channel's usual start for a Short. The segment brings her own explanation of her changing voice into a conversation often shaped by other people's observations.

ABC News correspondent Hanna Battah introduces the clip, in which Gomez directly connects her nicotine vaping with the change. "I'm not gonna be able to change my voice," Gomez says.

Battah then turns to vocal care, outlining steps including quitting, staying hydrated, avoiding smoke and vapor, and resting the voice. The report ends with an important update to the struggle described in its title: Battah says Gomez has stopped using nicotine.
