Selena Gomez Opened Up About Her Lupus Diagnosis And Being Told That She "Could Have Had A Stroke Onstage","I lied. I would go online and I would post a picture of myself and say it doesn't matter, I'm not accepting what you're saying — all the while being in the room posting that, crying my eyes out, because nobody deserves to hear those things."
Selena Gomez Opened Up About Her Lupus Diagnosis And Being Told That She “Could Have Had A Stroke Onstage”
Selena Gomez reflected on her lupus diagnosis and being the subject of body-shaming comments through the years.
Apple TV+“It was just my body fighting itself on the inside. That was the most surreal part, because I never felt fatigue; I was young, I felt completely fine. So hearing from a doctor, ‘You could have had a stroke onstage, you could have died’ — it was a lot. But I didn’t allow it to sink in; I didn’t want to process it,” she explained.
Kevin Winter / Getty Images“My weight would constantly fluctuate because I would be on certain medications. And obviously, people just ran with it. It was like they couldn’t wait to find a thing to bring me down. I was being shamed for gaining weight because of my lupus.”
Matt Winkelmeyer / Getty ImagesWhen it came to posting about her body on social media during this time, Selena continued, “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, because nobody deserves to hear those things.”
Apple TV+She added, “I was posting these things saying it doesn’t bother me because I didn’t want it to bother other people who are experiencing the same thing — getting shamed for what they look like, who they are, who they love. I just think it’s so unfair; I don’t think that anybody deserves to feel less than.”
Apple TV+Selena previously addressed speculation around her weight gain earlier this year in a TikTok Live. “My medications are important, and I believe they are what helps me,” she said, looking emotional. “Not a model, never will be.”
