Selena Gomez – Addresses Her Weight Gain, Tells Fans That It’s Not her Job To Be A Model
Selena recently took to her Twitter account to explain that she’s not a model and that she will never be a model and added that her critics can “go away” if they can’t come to terms about it.
Selena has mentioned in the past that her lupus medication is one of the reasons why her weight has fluctuated so many times over the last few years.
Selena put it this way, “When I’m taking it, I tend to hold a lot of water weight, and that happens very normally. When I’m off of it, I tend to kind of lose weight. I just wanted to say and encourage anyone out there who feels any sort of shame for exactly what they’re going through and no one knows the real story.”

She added that despite the toll it’s taken on her mental health, she’s trying her best to stay positive and focus on her health. She said, “I just want people to know that you’re beautiful, and you’re wonderful. “Yeah, we have days where maybe we feel like s—t, but I would much rather be healthy and take care of myself. My medications are important, and I believe that they’re what helps me.”
What’s Next For Selena Gomez?
Selena added a message for both her supporters and her non-supporters at the end of her video. “I love you guys and thanks for supporting me and understanding,” she said. “And if not, go away, because honestly I don’t believe in shaming people for their body or anything.”

This is why we have such a high suicide rate in the us when it comes to our famous people. Society judges and makes a big deal out of wieght gain / loss or how their looks change giving them complexes. When PEOPLE they are just normal people that chose acting as a profession. It’s a job for our entertainment. But at the end of the day leave them alone so they can enjoy life. Not have to look over their shoulders while stupid reporters snap pictures at a vulnerable time . Grow up America. Quit being rude.
