- Selena Gomez opens up about her weight gain and how it's related to her lupus diagnosis while going live on Instagram. In the message, the star sends a heartfelt reminder to fans while also calling out body shamers.
NO MA'AM MS. GOMEZ YOIU DO NOT NEED TO EXPLAIN ANYTHING ABOUT YOUR BODY! YOUR TRUE FANS ARE HERE FOR YOU. YOUR mental health and physical health is much importnant! WE love you
It's okay to inform people how doesn't know.
Gay
I agree with you
I find this so cruel. Leave her alone. Selena is so beautiful inside and out and weight has nothing to do with who she is.
YAAAAS QUEEN! It's rough being a photogenuc, white, heterosexual woman in a first world country! 🙄🙄
People who can't love you at your worst don't deserve to have you at your best
Amen to that. Couldn’t have said it better. 👏🏽
Ooof. Louder for the peeps in the back! 🙌🏼
Facts!
Amen xx
@You Are Rich 💎 Good for you sweetheart xxx
I’m 34 and I honestly look up to her. So graceful, kind, humble, strong. What a great role model.
Ok
Ok….
She really is ♥️🙌🏽
Well you definitely won't be able to look past her

As someone who also struggles with Lupus and weight gain, I applaud Selena. Thank you for speaking out that body shaming someone without knowing the circumstances is not ok. It’s a daily struggle to deal with this disease, the last thing we need is to be bullied about our weight. The much needed medicine I take all have the side effect of weight gain.😢 Just be kind to people cause you never know what someone is dealing with.😊💜
Seriously. The minute my rheumatologist says prednisone I want to cry because I know what comes with that. It’s SO hard and people have no idea what our lives are really like with this disease!
Watching her explain how it feels when she wakes up had me tearing up because that's exactly how I feel almost everyday for the last 20 years battling Lupus. Criticizing someone's fluctuating weight when that person is fighting an incurable disease is pretty sh!tty. Treat people the way you would want to be treated. I'm glad Selena is bringing more awareness to this terrible disease. If you saw me in person you would never know that I'm sick. You would never know that I've been a size 00 all the way to a size 8 and back. I have more stretch marks from prednisone than from all 4 of my pregnancies combined. I've been to the brink of death and back atleast 3 times, so I've never been the one to really care about what other people think but I would never say something mean or criticize someone's weight. Just be kind to one another.
You’re not alone❤ I took (a high dose) prednisone for half of high school on and off and it was debilitating. I had moon face and it was just awful and I still carry that with me today decades later. I hope you know that you’re not alone and please reach out to others with lupus or chronic conditions and join a support group if you can. I’m sending all good things your way- you can make it through, even a day at a time.
Try NAC, quercetin, zinc, vit D, A and B1. These are must haves for fighting this.
Same here
There's nothing wrong with her weight. She's beautiful the way she is. My heart absolutely breaks for her diagnosis. She should continue to look after herself and not care what anyone has to say. Who cares what the haters say? You’re Selena Gomez! Girl, you are badass!!
And yeah! who cares what haters say! she can drink alcohol and destroy her kidney that was given to her as much as she wants too! Go queen 👑 Slayyyyy 💅💅 And leave that said friend who gave her the kidney in the dust! Yeah totally normal and a good person!
Aww who hurt you? If I remember correctly I got made fun of by some Feline now when it's you? Are hurt😅😅? Aww are you okay?
Aww who hurt you? Why so Defensive
I am 190 I always been 145 my whole life at one point lower than that I've gained over 50 lbs in the last 4 years and now that I am engaged I am wanting more to be healthy again. ruclips.net/user/postUgkx5VQ5nUzHu6i0O5_u7ipyLnCz0lbsSvr0 I am not fat but I am thick and have muscle. I am very close to how you were but a lil smaller but I am so sick people making comments to me like I'm huge or like you said having shorts that used to be so cute on me and now I can't even find a pair to fit me. I used to love shopping now I don't even want to go to the store and if I do I pick the biggest size don't even try it on and deal with it. I went from size 5 to size idk because I don't even want to know the real number. I hate looking at pics of myself now or me before. thank you for your video it's time to make a change.
Aww who hurt you? If I remember correctly I got made fun of by some Feline now when it's you? Are hurt😅😅? Aww are you okay?
Aww who hurt you
I hope she takes care of herself
I really like this mature version of Selena. Lupus is a chronic, unpredictable, and often debilitating illness. Anyone who suffers from chronic pain knows how it doesn't just affect your body, it really messes with your mind, too. She handles this with such grace and is willing to share what it looks like for her. Her honesty will no doubt help others who are also experiencing this and similar ailments.
This girl is so amazing! It takes so much courage to be so honest, vulnerable and open especially given the industry that she's been working since a little kid. We need more people to step up and show their true inner battles instead of having people that are shiny and "perfect" all the time (and miserable inside). Thank you Selena for your strength and courage, it is so helping me and so many people around the world!
I could not have said this better 👌🏽💯
I cannot believe that people who know her condition and that she had an organ transplant can‘t understand that there will be side effects to medication. She is incredibly beautiful inside and out.❤
You can't blame people for forgetting her condition and organ transplant, Ms. Gomez made a documentary and forgot to mention her condition, her organ transplant and the friend who is forever scarred for giving her an organ. My respect for Selena is gone after that.
Ya i lost some respect after knowing how she disregarded the friend that HAVE TO donated organ to her.
Exactly
@@jenniferraposo142 agree.
@@jenniferraposo142her whole life doesn’t constantly need to be about her lupus and her organ transplant. She’s allowed to display other aspects of her life
People can be so RUDE. Please, leave this beautiful, highly talented Woman alone. She deserves to stay in a place of physical & mental PEACE!! Have some respect!
Sending her ✨Love, Light & Healing✨
Blessed-

People are selective over their rudeness.
Half the women complaining in the comments about body positivity and saying do people not realize shes got health problems blah blah blah are probably the same women who sit there bullying, body shaming, dehumanizing, devaluing, mocking any disabled guy for things they can never help about their bodies from penis size to height to going bald to disabilities, chronic health problems etc.
Double standards. You can bet at least half of these women sit penis size shaming men to mental ilness come every friday lol
@Harsh Patel Nope, Selena is grateful and should never be trolled. Oh oh, you're just a little loco! Like boats in Acapulco, you're just riding the wave! Sheesh!
As a victim of Rheumatoid Arthritis I know our meds really mess up our bodies, but we need the medication..it hurts so bad. I've had this since I was 18, I'm 48 now, I wish I could give everyone suffering from this or Lupus or any disease a big hug because it is so hard. God bless
What medication are you on for your rheumatoid arthritis? I ask because I have a lot of bad arthritis pain too
@@lauraangel6774 I take 3 Methotrexate a week and Humira injections weekly...so far so good... I was taking methotrexate 6 times a week but the side effects were too much like tiredness... they work together really well though 👍
Hey I got diagnosed with RA at 17 and I’m now 22. I take humara biweekly and methotrexate once a week. I used to take an injection but I couldn’t tolerate it so i recently switched to pills. Although I’m having allot of pain with my hip but my doctors brush it off. I have popping and grinding with pain as well as when walking or any other activity. Did you ever experience anything like this? What was it like for you? Im Scared that i will need a hip replacement early in my life.
@@Elizabeth-jk2np Yes, that popping and grinding, my jaw still does grind and I'm 48 now but my hips and knee and ankle pain are like nothing now compared to when I was your age, id rather have my body NOW then it was when I was 22 lol minus the older woman body problems! My joints got better with age then they were years ago, I went into remission many times over the years just by diet change! Now I'm eating junk again so I'm in a little more pain now but look up anti inflammatory foods AND foods that cause inflammation, this was a big help to me growing up
People should never be judged or shamed for their weight! No form of body shaming is acceptable. Wishing Selena great health 💛💫
Right? Whether she has lupus or not, she shouldn't be shamed either way
Autoimmune diseases are horrible . I have multiple sclerosis myself and was on meds that caused me to put on weight too and hair loss also occurred . It’s ok because most of us really embrace it and we are fighters . Wishing everyone the best and Selena keep on being you . ❤
Take care.

@@Jasmyne444 ThanQ lovie! I'll pass it on.
Honestly I'd rather be chubby and hairless than dead. Selena doesn't need to address any of the ridiculous comments about her weight. She's dealing with a serious medical condition that can literally kill her. A little bit of water weight is the least of her worries.
@@rurubelle2920 Well said!
She doesn’t owe anyone any kind of explanation but the fact that she addresses the negative comments and talks about the medication etc. is also setting a good example for others who may not take their prescribed medication due to the side effects. Medication compliance is a huge issue. She keeps it real and is a great role model. She’s beautiful inside and out❤
True. I kinda wish these celebs didnt have to explain or overly explain their situations to anyone not personally involved.
Perception alone, her direct openness and honesty about her journey with her medication has created a reawakening for people including myself, those who have their own medication history or a negative perception of it and have convinced themselves that it is all around bad or that they don't need it.
She should've addressed the negative comments that She received when She did what She did to FRANCIA RAISA, too, but She put on a STIFF NECK and Let her BIG EGO OUT and acted like You know What!!
@@12567NoYouCannothuh?
Considering how she treated her ‘’friend’’ who literally gave her a kidney, I don’t think she’s beautiful on the inside.
Good for her. There's so many people on these meds and they feel so bad for what it does to their bodies. She's a great example to shine on and be you!
Nobody should ever have to explain their body whether they’re skinny or big everybody’s body changes everybody’s gonna gain weight everybody’s not gonna look the same as they were in their 20s. If people have a problem with it then they have a problem with themselves. Selena Gomez will always be beautiful we all love Selena Gomez. She’s amazing. She doesn’t need to owe anybody an exclamation for her weight gain she’s beautiful inside it out.
So well said
I admire her confidence. I am currently in a similar position. I have found it difficult to accept my weight gain due to medications.
Can’t imagine what you’re going through you have my full support 💪🏾 and empathy and know this please: You’re taking care of yourself and there is no better medicine for the soul than the love you’re giving to yourself. Don’t worry babe, you do you and regain full health as soon as possible and don’t worry about ppl focusing on shallow things, they don’t have better things to do.
im an atheist so i don’t pray,
but i’ll send a ton of positive energy to you. 🫂 ❤
You got this beautiful!! 😊
@@BanOF-ug6yq thank you so much. This touched my heart ❤️
Same here as well.
@@BanOF-ug6yq That was such a great reply. I was crying reading that. You are living proof words matter xx Thank you
Me too sweetheart. Those who matter to you don't mind those who don't matter to you some how mind. Let them live there lives and we live ours. Sending much love to you. Xxx
She’s always shared her light and talent. I’m humbled by her sharing her struggles. It’s powerful
She’s beautiful regardless of her weight. She sounds exhausted. The roundness of her face makes her look even younger.
Her speaking out is amazing and such a strong message! Also the fact so many cares about if someone gains weight… bro mind your own life and focus on what’s important.
We need more people like Selena.
I think she can replace Rebel Wilson as fat amy in the next pitch perfect movie.

Yes we do
BEAUTIFUL FACE AND SEXY BODY FADE BUT A KIND HEART CAN STAY UNTIL DEATH
She seems like such a genuine and honset person. I have come to respect her so much for holding true to herself and sharing her struggles to help others. Kille em with kindness always Selena.
Always loved her REAlness
People are just jealous they can never be that beautiful inside or out. She's young and out of this world gorgeous.
Selena is such a beautiful young lady whether she has gained weight or not. No one should ever have to endure shaming or insults like this. She is a strong and resilient person for standing up for herself and others in this way! She deserves all my praise and respect.
Hi Selena, I was diagnosed with Lupus and Fibromyalgia and I understand exactly how you feel. I would be in pain at night while trying to sleep which can be debilitating. I feel like I've been in a boxing match. Listen to your body, when you need to take a break do it because no one knows your body better than you. And when people come at you with nonsense just pray for them. I'll keep you in my prayers 🙏 ❤️

I have stomach pain currently. Is it related to fibromyalgia? And when did u decide to finally get diagnosed?
She doesn’t have to explain ANYTHING to anyone that questions her ability to survive in any way,, STAY BLESSED, STAY HEALTHY SELENA
She is looking great. For all the people who are not aware or informed about this illness please get informed!!! It’s not easy. My mom has lupus and it’s not easy! Her body has changed drastically and she lives in CONSTANT PAIN! People plz STOP judging, EDUCATE YOURSELVES.
Gomez u look great, nd girl I totally understand u, I see mom every day go through each pain, every change in her body. I feel hopeless sometimes not being able to help her. Ur young and BEAUTIFUL IN ANY SHAPE AND FORM. 💪
I've never been a big follower of selena or her music but especially with things coming to surface with all this petty high school drama going on, she really shines and i see why she is such a well liked celebrity by so many. I cant even imagine what she's been thru and nobody deserves to be shamed for things they cant control about their own body, or anything for that matter
I too suffer with lupus & struggle with weight gain. It’s easy to add weight but so hard to lose even when dieting or meal prep bc it’s too painful to exercise much. Most meds make you gain even without eating big meals. So if you know, you know, if you don’t, don’t say anything. ❤ Prayers & Blessings coming your way Selena.
Thank you for sharing! Friendly reminder. It's important to eat well and get the nutrition the body needs. The healthiest is vegan diet with produce from local organic farms. There's negative emotional, spiritual energy to eating meat from animals who were tortured and killed. Check out the work of Dr Sat Dharam Kaur, the documentary film on YT-- Hope: What You Eat Matters. Another one The Invisible Vegan. Many great videos on veganism. Wishing you, Selena and everyone who has the condition lupus speedy recovery! Sending love and blessing! 🥰
@@tianyue5814nobody asked for you opinion and those of us who are chronically ill cannot stand people like you! Keep your “advice” to yourself!
I don't have lupus but I got sick back in 2012 and kept it to myself. I continued working until 2015. When I could no longer cope/manage I decided to let the company I worked know about my situation. Eventually I was declared medically unfit for my job in 2018. It's 2023 and I still have my health issues, unemployed but I'm trying to start over at 41. Wish you all the best Selena.
Wishing YOU all the best as well! ❤
Thank you very much.
@@learieramoutar7590 check out the dr sebi diet. Also watch his videos on RUclips. At the end of the day it’s all about the foods we eat. Anything can be healed. God bless 🙏
I'm so glad you shared this❤️ starting over is so f*cking hard but also refreshing and exciting once you have a plan. I'm starting over too. I really wish you all the best and I love that you finally put your health first❤️ others can learn from you x
Have you applied for SSDI or depend on another medication? Some times poor diet can cause diseases to appear decades in the future.
Thank you for speaking out and helping to normalize weight gain from medical treatment of illnesses. There should be no shame.
This !!
Girl, you don’t need to explain. We love you! Love your authenticity and realness, which is so rare in your industry. I’m struggling with a chronic pain condition too and I wake up in the most pain of the day. It’s nice to know other people are experiencing similar challenges. Illness or pain don’t discriminate, it can happen to anyone. Hugs
True 🙂
I applaud the commenters for showing love and positivity towards Selena. To add, I pray and hope that we spread that love to others and ourselves. Everyone is going through things that we may not know. Let's spread grace, love and positive vibes to each other y'all. Love you beauties!!! ❤️
This is so great, as someone who has struggled with eating disorders and self esteem issues I appreciate Selena so much! Get it girl!
You appreciate she has Lupus which makes her fat because you have/had eating disorders?
Yeah that makes sense. 🤔
@@GrandRoyal44 No I think they meant they appreciate her response to the ppl talking about it & her saying that it's ok to be the way you are.
@@GrandRoyal44 more like we are glad that she is speaking up to people who body shame. as someone who struggles with eating disorders as well, it's crushing when people constantly bring up your body in a negative light so we are glad she is fighting back against shallow ass people like that. it makes sense, just not to you because you don't understand any of our situations and that's okay 👍🏻
Take care of health. I quit smoking after 30 years and I've gained over 20 lb. I am very self-conscious about my weight but I would not go back to smoking to lose the weight. I'm addicted to Sugar now but I also swim every day which is something I did not do when I smoke. Overall much healthier
It's sad selena has to defend herself like this because of all the hate ,and negatively against her body. It's her body. Whether you like it or not it doesn't matter. A person is still a person regardless of what changes are happening sigh moving on she handled herself well I just hope people take this in ,and understand the message.
As a woman that gained 50 pounds in 2 months do to meds. FOCUS ON YOU AND YOUR CIRCLE OF SUPPORTERS!!. I pray you manage this for a stronger you. Stress free STRESS FREE!. IS THE KEY TO LIFE!🧡🙏
Absolutely! ❤️
Mad respect for you (SG) Having an autoimmune disease is no joke. There are such low lows, but there are highs too. Chronic pain sucks, and fighting for our lives is what we do every day. My Sister has Lupus, and I have AS. She and I have fought most of our adult lives to push forward with our diseases. The medications, many cause weight gain, the diseases affect all our organs and bones and joints. It’s hard. I chose to love my body as a plus size woman, because my body fights hard every day! So does yours girl! (S.G.) keep on Keeping on! You are beautiful! All of you!
You are perfect, just as you are, with all the fluctuations that all humans deal with at some point in their lives. Those pointing fingers and judging…one day, they will have to deal with something hard. I just hope they have someone to be supportive of them when they do. Perfect people do not exist, if anyone thinks they are “all that”…well…. “You get what you give the world back at some point” I hope they can handle it.
Explain NOTHING! to these haters and body shamers. As a lupus sufferer, I know what you are experiencing, although my onset did not occur at your young age and I am so sorry you experienced this so young. You have my admiration for your strength, your honesty, your inner and outer beauty and your talent. Dwell in peace, tranquility and “Live long and prosper” - Mr. Spock .
She is a real queen 👸🏽 beyond looks and beyond her body! She shares her heart 💜

She is not a queen she is a satanist owned worshiper
@@wittelsbacher27cameron16 she literally says she believes in Jesus bro
As someone with hashimotos, I can attest to how hard it is sometimes to manage the symptoms and weight. I’ve finally reached a place in life where I’ve got my autoimmune disease under some level of control, and I focus on enjoying my life rather than living it for the approval of others. Go Selena!

She has nothing to explain! She's still as beautiful as ever! Lupus is a very difficult disease to deal with, I don't know why anyone would be hateful!
Aw good for her. She’s beautiful no matter what and I’m glad that she is on a medication that is helping her. I got clean a little over a year and a half ago and was 90 pounds at the time. I ended up gaining a lot of weight like 55 pounds which was healthy and I needed to but it’s been really hard on me and my psych and MAT meds aren’t helping but this made me feel a lot better so thank you ❤
The people that are hating on her are the ones that have so many insecurities themselves or there, just plain horrible cruel people with no heart.
aka hailey fans
@@benzie0589They learned from the best on that one yk so. 👍🏻👌🏻🤭😂
@@benzie0589 I love Hailey but never body shame Selena
There are terrible people with NO heart, but Selena is One of those people; Don't be fooled by her "Poor Me" BS.
You have to be perfect these days or most modern women just simply cannot cope with your presence without making a horrible comment.
I mean right down to modern women having to bully, body shame, dehumanize, publically humiliate men for things they can never help about their bodies such as penis size etc.
These people(Mostly women) are just cruel. Men do not get away with making extremely cruel bodily remarks like this especially publically without being instantly cancelled and having everyone come down on you like a ton of bricks.
Whereas most modern women are celebrated and encouraged for body shaming and making all sorts of completely unnecessary remarks on peoples bodies, just to make these people feel more shitty about themselves of course, usually at a time when they are struggling the most mentally.
The same sort of women of course who will share a meme on facebook claiming how much they are about mens mental health and body posititvity though haha
It’s so sad how our world is what’s sad is I went through a place in my life where I had depression so bad where I couldn’t eat and I lost so much weight no one told me I looked unhealthy but as soon as I got better and gained weight I had so many people make fun of me and tell me I was fat. I can’t understand how so many people can be so cruel and say horrible stuff about someone so kind as Selena I’m happy she said she don’t care what the haters think.
That's in the US and England that they Do that to people, and I think in Colombia, but for most parts of the World, they LOVE Women with CURVES, nothing wrong with them, it depends where you are located, for US standards, I am Fat too, but I've been to other lands where people think I am pretty Normal.
This girl is so respectable, very good person in my book!
My heart broke seeing her cry in pain. I think 2 singers that I’m thinking of had or has that but I had forgotten much about it until now. I may not know fully everything about it but I do feel for her. It’s important to set healthy boundaries & take care of ourselves. It’s ok to say no. I applaud her bravery in coming forward. She’s someone young girls & older can truly look up too & to know they aren’t alone. Never be ashamed of who you are, or of what you’re going through. Always be yourself & that’s what I love about her. She stays true to herself.
It’s so sad people rather judge & bring others down instead of showing empathy, understanding & lifting people up. Kill them with kindness it’s so true. Like I’ve always said, if someone treats you bad, treat them better bc it shows their character. This world needs more love than hate. No one will truly understands what another is simply going through until they go through it themselves. I may not fully understand what she’s going through but I’m sure many can.
Even though what I’m going through isn’t the same, but I struggle with my own issues with Fibromyalgia. I felt ashamed etc but now I’m not anymore. We can’t control what we have. So that’s why we should speak up when we can without any shame & educate ourselves & others. While surrounding ourselves with people who will support & love us. Much love ☺️🙏🏻♥️
Selena, you are beautiful on the inside and outside don't ever listen to anyone who says different!
I have so much respect for Selena. It's hard enough to have a disease called systemic lupus. I was diagnosed last year and it was crushing and exhausting. People need to be more supportive and respectful 🙏
It’s also in her gens. Both of her parents are not skinny, but of course certain kind of medication make you gain weight even if you are starving.
I don’t believe in body shaming as well. As long as you feel comfortable in your own body. It’s my body. Go mind your own business.
Selena looks beautiful regardless
We love you Selena Gomez . Stay positive and true to yourself.
Selena is absolutely gorgeous! She reminds me of a young Linda Ronstadt and Linda Carter. It saddens me to see her suffer this illness, she's gone through so much pain already but she's invincible and will overcome all obstacles. May God The Most High continue to be with her comforting and protecting her from harm's way.
Oh wow, I searched those names and yes she does! But more on the young Linda Ronstadt...both pretty❤️
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...Stay true to yourself and happiness will always follow.
You're not alone Selena alot of us have autoimmune diseases, I have graves disease n now I've been tested for parathyroid, blessed be...🖤💛❤️🙏
You are beautiful Selena and you're gonna make it through in Jesus name ✝🙌
Praise the lord🙌🔥❣️✨
As a type one diabetic with kidney and liver issues I cannot stress enough how she inspires me daily ❤ I love u Selina MWAH you make me feel beautiful through your messages, music, acting, everything you do
My son is 9 years old, he was diagnosed with diabetes type 1 when he was 6, I hopes he never get kidney or liver disease 😢 any advise? I'm scared
@@verogzalez390 I know it’s so easy to be scared, my parents were and so was I. Scariest time of my life!! All I can say is it is rare and it is manageable. He’s already so strong fighting type one diabetes!! As he gets older it will get harder especially as a teenager (most teens rebel against type one which is what my sister and I did). I can’t stress enough how important mental health is for type one diabetics, my mental health and the exhaustion of dealing with it is what made me sick!! If I could go back and not feel so much pressure from the doctors and peers around being “perfect” I would involving my sugar control. Keep being a strong parent and just be there for them no matter what comes with their type one!! You are so strong it is so hard being a parents of a type one as well!! Milk thistle helped my liver a lot and getting through those teen years of ignoring my type one!! The pressure of A1C can really effect how we manage our diabetes and deal with the shame and guilt of not always being perfect!! Managing sugars is what healed my kidneys before it got to far! Although my liver is still struggeling it is manageable and I hope it doesn’t come to that point for your son!! Stay strong diabetes isn’t something to fear or be sad about, one piece of advice is it isn’t “dooms day” it’s a blessing. It made me stronger, more aware of my health, more in tune with my mental health, and I am part of a community of very strong people INCLUDING YOU as a strong parent!!! Xoxo 🤍
In January 2018, I weighed 140 pounds at 5 feet 7 inches (female) and was a long distance cyclist and crossfitter. In July 2018, I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. I was prescribed a sh*t tonne of HEAVY, hardcore medication which not only caused an IMMENSE amount of inflammation / water weight, it damaged my gut lining, digestion, metabolism ... and a whole lot of other things. I had to stop all physical activities because of the horrendous, unimaginable pain in my joints and within 10 months I gained over 84 pounds of weight, a lot of it being water retention. The lack of respect, judgement, the side eyes, the whispering behind my back and segregation I felt within such a short period of time, was the hardest to deal with. If people literally can't see your disability / illness physically, they don't take you or your pain seriously. The number of times I've heard " but you look fine.. you've just put on some weight. If you lose it, you might feel better," is more than I care to count. *It gets so tiring.* It's hard as an every day, normal citizen. I can't imagine what it would be like being a celebrity, where every part of your life, is exposed for the whole world to comment and pick at ...
I truly empathize with you Selena. Both my mother had and my daughter does have Lupus (SLE). The amount of pain the body goes through, day after day, takes it's toll. My mother passed away from it and my daughter deals with it now. People have NO IDEA what those that suffer from SLE (or any chronic, autoimmune illnesses) the shear pain go through. My daughter also has Lupus Nephritis which caused her to lose both of her kidneys. She was blessed with a "new to her" kidney and has done beautifully with it. After the transplant, she no longer needed dialysis. My point is, it amazes me how some people are so quick to mock, make fun of or ridicule others on how they look...without even taking a second to think, "wow, maybe that person is dealing with something pretty awful." I know that most of those people wouldn't be able to deal with that pain for a few minutes let alone their ENTIRE lives.
HER BODY IS FREAKING PERFECT!!!
End of story!
She looked slightly better to me when she was maybe 5-10kg less than the weight she is now but she’s still beautiful and she’s healthy and that’s all that matters.
Sure bud
She is just a absolutely wonderful person and so genuine and such a great role model for little girls ,older girls and women .she deserves the best out of life and I hope she gets it .
In WHO's Opinion is She "So Wonderful"?? ha, ha, ha. Not in my Opinion.
*Whitney Thore also has Lupus and it was the biggest factor in her weight gain. I feel for Selena because nobody should be shamed for their body!!* 💯🙏
I’m not in the same boat but a similar one. I very recently found out I have celiac disease. All my life I was bloated and my body held onto water easily and my face is huge and red all the time. I had no idea my body was fighting itself 24/7. All my life I tried dieting and exercise and nothing worked. I could eat salad and drink water every day still gain weight. When I found out I had an autoimmune disease and changed everything I ate to match what my body needs, I started losing weight. My bloat went down so much this past month alone that I was able to buy smaller pants. So I know it’s not the same as Selena but my point is, I’ve been ridiculed my whole life for being puffy and people have argued with me saying I must be a lazy slob since I’m so fat and in reality I had a severe medical issue that I’m VERY FORTUNATE did not turn into cancer before I caught it
She’s gorgeous inside and out. ❤
I didn't know she had Lupus. I've been struggling with it since 2007. I can relate to the periods of weight gain, the pain, the devastation of your body constantly malfunctioning. I've been stable for a bit, hope she's healing. 💔
It’s disgusting people body shaming her. Love u for ever Selena ❤
What is wrong with people she is beautiful and her body looks great. It’s sad she even has to put this message out. What a beautiful young woman!
Cap
What happened to her flawless filter free face she posted proudly on IG about less than a week? 🫠🤣🚬🤣🫠 you mean Selena lies about her face and everything? Say it ain’t so! Gasp!!!!!!
@@josephmartin8883 Nearly everyone on social media uses filters.
@@snesne618 Personally I think she’s beautiful.
@@snesne618 Nope, no cap - you wish Selena was your wife. She's on fire, she's so hot! I'm no liar - she burn up the spot!
Much love and hugs to Selena Gomez. 😊
She looks better with extra weight and much more beautiful than hailey
I dare the haters to walk a mile in the lupus path and then comment. No one knows unless they experience it. I stand with you as someone who experiences lupus.
I love when folks are so truthful! MsGOmez you are amazing inside and out
For as much as she has haters, she has twice the fans that love her. I believe people are getting paid to be hateful on Social Media, and you have that sad group of humans that have nothing better to do than to spread hate and negativity, hurt people hurt people. Then you have that group that is never satisfied, always complaining, and whining. Too much!
Prayers 🙏 for Selena Gomez May she receive healing ❤️🩹 and comfort ♥️♥️♥️
astroturfing is real but I dont think you to pay people to criticize overweight people.
@@urbannedbud in todays world 🌍 anything is possible everyone’s out for a buck
@@iadiramorales68 sure but remember that the internet is the choice place to be critical and blunt.
@@urbannedbud I get it, but it’s getting out of control Humanity is forgetting to be human to the point of criminal. If you have that much hate to spread than you need help get therapy, everyone is entitled to their opinion, of course, but this is getting evil 👿 I don’t agree with this type of hate and bluntness…no wonder everyone is dealing with mental illness. I have God in my life I pray 🙏 for the lost
@@iadiramorales68 i dont think judging peoples looks a new more severe form of hate. nor do i think its particularly evil. I think there may be a better example of this I agree with you to an extent, but not in regards to judging appearance
I’ve definitely had my own struggles with medications that weren’t even entirely working! I have been fortunate to be on a med that works more now! I respect how much of a soldier you seem like you are being to me! If you’re breathing you are achieving? :)
You look healthy Selena and can vouch for all the Beautiful Souls out there!❤
What weight issue??!! This is a beautiful, honest young woman that gives the world so much more than she has ever received. God bless her for caring about so many people. Keep being yourself Selena!
She’s probably talking about the dreaded moon face caused by prednisone (corticosteroids). Believe me when I say most of us in the lupus community hate it but learn to accept it. Especially when we tell ourselves it’s temporary because we’re not supposed to be on it for life.
@@susangarza3203 I’m betting you are right its more noticeable in that area on her but I love her either way! It’s gorgeous
@@macymiller3417 we appreciate the unconditional love. I think what we want people to understand is it’s frustrating for us because we are not like this because we overate but something out of our control. And you feel hopelessness and loss of control which is scary. It’s a lot of phycological issues on top of all of the other scary issues such as an early death , becoming disabled etc.
“That gives the world so much more than she has ever received…”
You mean besides the millions of dollars she’s been paid. And only banging hot guys her whole life based off her looks…
You’re right. She’s never received anything from this world… lmfao
She’s so sweet and humble .. I pray for her healing ❤️🩹
PLEASE; "Sweet & Humble"?? ha, ha, ha. YOU BITE the BAIT. ha, ha, ha.
I just love this girl and feel her pain! I've got Fibromyalgia and my family doesn't understand why I feel so bad sometimes. Hugs sweet girl! 💜
Weight gain is very typical with Lupus meds, and Lupus goes through remission and flares. That's awful people are saying shit like this. I have Lupus that's been in remission that's been in remission for quite away and I've been grateful, but its hard!!! All of it!!
What have you done to keep it in remission?
I can understand how you feel Selena, as well as others who are going through this process. I unfortunately was just discharged yesterday again from the hospital due to chronic pain. I had a kidney transplant 7 years ago due lupus nephritis. The absolute worst thing you could ever do to someone is shame them already in any way. We are going through so much as it is now physically mentally emotionally. This illness is absolutely draining and it is not our fault. Please be kind. We are trying our hardest 🫶🏼🦋💜
“Who says” is still one of my favorite songs and it’s beautiful message should still be heard to this day.
She is gorgeous and a hero in my eyes for being so candid!! The important thing is that Selena's healthcare needs are managed. Superficial people that shame another are of no value and should be completely disregarded.
One of my close friends has lupus ... She doesn't eat much but she gained weight. I'm sorry to anyone going through this, stay strong 🥰 🙏🏽
Its sad how people have no heart to shame her and call her names. All those rude and mean names i see on Twitter even when they know exactly her struggles and even after watching her documentary. Do people stan that much to the point they forget they are humans and forget celebrities hurt too?
We need to change for the better, for our kids and future generations.
Love you Selena Gomez ❤️❤️❤️🇿🇲
She's so beautiful, kind & sweet. I've always loved her & I wish that people would just give her a break.
Dude…she seems like a cool person, I hate that people are shaming her. It’s not ok man.
I have lupus for almost 15 years now. The best thing I did was stop the meds,,, and just eat the right things. The meds affect your organs really bad ....Dr's meds were making me worse ... aches , pain, tears , depression. Hope she finds comfort
She is a wonderful influence on the younger generation and I can’t say that about many people. I have been 216 pounds and I got caught up in wanting to lose weight so fast it almost killed me , I lost 90 pounds in 3 1/2 months and suffered a severe heart attack that almost took my life at 32 . Woman and girls everywhere needs to know there are so many body types and weight fluctuations are NORMAL !!!!!! Focus on your health and happiness , your weight should have nothing to do with your happiness!!!!!!
She is a NEGATIVE INFLUENCE on Young People. PLEASE.
@@12567NoYouCannot how?
She my childhood crush hope she realizes how many fans still think she on another level of beauty
God bless her. She is an amazing person who built so many businesses as a very young person through her own visions.
Talented, highly intelligent and overall seems like a really down to earth human. The haters need to leave this woman alone. She has enough of a battle to fight without the cruel of the world. I absolutely can not with people on this earth. 😖
These Hollywood types cannot deal with criticism!!! Toughen up will ya
Lupos and bipolar medication 😢🥺
She is the most genuine person in Hollywood ❤
SELENA’S HEALTH IS TOP PRIORITY AND SHE IS BEAUTIFUL ❤
I actually think she looks really good with a fuller face, i honestly think it suits her, it really accentuates how dainty her features are & she’s just as beautiful as she was before
She is adorable - always has been - inside and out. I’m roughly ten years older than her and have thought from day one “oh if I were younger she’d be the star I’d emulate”. Such a sweet caring genuine person.
I wish you well Selena. keep taking care and do whatever you have to do for your health, my sister had lupus & eventually passed away.
She's a class act and stunning!
No explanation is needed. You're right they need to go away. I'm still a fan.
Selena, seriously. Girl you are beautiful. I am sick of society and their standards. Screw that.
Selena's courage and strength knows no bounds. I wish more celebrities were like her.
Selena is so beautiful, inside and out! Which is a rare thing in Hollywood.
No explanation needed. The haters are not worth your time or effort. We love you and always will!!!
