Real talk! Selena Gomez clapped back at body-shamers who have attacked her appearance — and revealed that her lupus medication causes her weight fluctuations. “I tend to hold a lot of water weight and that happens very normally.
And then when I’m off of [my medication], I tend to lose weight,” Gomez, 30, explained during a TikTok Live video that was shared via Twitter on Thursday, February 16. “I just wanted to say and encourage anyone out there who feels any sort of shame for exactly what they’re going for and nobody knows the real story — I just want people to know that you’re beautiful and you’re wonderful and, yeah, maybe we have days where we feel like s—t but I would much rather be healthy and take care of myself.” The Only Murders in the Building star noted that her “medications are important” and “are what helps me,” adding, “[I’m] not a model, never will be.
