Selena Gomez Pushes Back Against 'Absurd' Fraud Claims Recent allegations of fraud against Selena Gomez and her mother, Mandy Teefey, are the latest example of the perils of family businesses in the entertainment industry.
The case involves Wondermind, a mental health platform that Gomez cofounded with her mother five years ago. Investors claim they were misled about Gomez's level of involvement in the company.
Gomez allegedly promised to be actively involved as head of marketing but instead left day to day operations to others. This has led to a lawsuit seeking nearly $1. 2 million in damages.
