Selena Gomez Reveals All On Her Body Shaming Comments-‘Crying My Eyes Out’
Gomez has been open about her battle with lupus since 2014 and how the drugs she takes for it affect her body’s changes. After being diagnosed for three years, Gomez received a kidney transplant from her close friend Francia Raisa.
During her appearance on the Apple series, the star expressed her deep appreciation towards the kindness and generosity shown by the actress. In her comments, Selena made her feelings clear about feeling impacted. She said: “I lied.
“I would go online and I would post a picture of myself and say [the negative comments] don’t matter, I’m not accepting what you’re saying — all the while being in the room posting that, crying my eyes out.” The artist has a history of taking breaks from social media in response to negative comments from online trolls.
Recently, she took a short break from the internet after being in the news for some controversy involving Hailey Bieber. During the course of this process, it was alleged that Hailey had questioned why Selena had not told her fans to not mock Hailey. That is why she has previously stated wanting a break.
Her following comments confirmed as much: “I’m gonna be taking a second from social media because this is a little silly. I’m 30, I’m too old for this. But I love you guys so much, and I will see you guys sooner than later. I’m just gonna take a break from everything.”
The response on social media was clear. Large numbers of people came out to question her comments, with some suggesting that she was looking for attention. One person wrote: “She doesn’t seem to be who she seems to be either.”
