Selena Gomez has consistently shared her personal journey, whether discussing relationships or health challenges. Recently, the 32-year-old singer made headlines at the American French Film Festival in Los Angeles, where she attended the premiere of her film Emilia Perez.
Dressed in a striking black ruched dress, her appearance drew attention, particularly for her posture, which had her hands covering her torso. This led to speculation among commentators that she was attempting to conceal her body.
In response to the viral video and the ensuing comments, Selena addressed the situation directly, stating, “This makes me sick. I have SEBO in my small intestine. It flares up. I don’t care that I don’t look like a stick figure. I don’t have that body. End of story. No, I am NOT a victim. I’m just human.”
Selena’s openness about her health struggles has been a hallmark of her public persona. From her lupus diagnosis to undergoing a kidney transplant in 2017, she has candidly discussed her experiences over the years.
In a TikTok live session in February 2023, she spoke about changes in her body, noting, “I tend to hold a lot of water weight, and that happens very normally, and then when I’m off it, I tend to lose weight. I just wanted to encourage anyone out there who feels shame for exactly what you’re going through—when nobody knows the real story, you’re beautiful and wonderful.”
