Selena’s had enough of the constant nitpicking

4 months ago

Selena Gomez is no stranger to unwanted internet drama, but she always seems to be at the centre of unwanted attention and hyper-analysis online – most recently, she shut down speculation on whether she has had any plastic surgery done.

On July 27, she responded to a video on TikTok posted by @Marissathepa, a personal assistant working in a Florida plastic surgeon’s office, who had addressed online theories that Selena had undergone cosmetic surgery.

“Honestly,” Selena commented, “I hate this. I was on stripes because of flare up.”

She added: “I have Botox. That’s it. Leave me alone.”

Selena has been very candid about her plastic surgery, and revealed on social media last December that she has had Botox.

In her video, Marissa Barrionuevo showed side-by-side photos of the actress’ face—one from years ago and another showing her at the 2023 Golden Globes. The TikToker made no conjectures herself about any possible differences in Selena’s appearance.

“I think she’s been through so much in her life, especially medically related, so I don’t think it’s fair to speculate whether or not she’s gotten cosmetic things done,” Marissa said. “At the end of the day, let’s just leave her be.”

In a response to Selena’s comment, Marissa shared: “I adore you. I really do mean the best, so I apologise if this rubbed you the wrong way in any way whatsoever.” Her video seems to be a sincere apology.

She also claimed that “You don’t owe it to anyone to tell us why you don’t look the same as when you did when you were a teenage or in your twenties.” Really love that statement: In an age where society seems hyper fixated on looks, it’s reassuring and important to know they don’t define who you are.

All seems to be forgiven on Selena’s side, as she posted onto Marissa’s apology video: “I love you. Not about you. I just get sad sometimes.” We all love you Selena!

Selena was diagnosed with lupus in 2014, an incurable autoimmune disorder that attacks tissues and organs. Symptoms, such as joint pain, are felt during flares, or periods of increased disease activity. The symptoms can be reduced with medicine, which often comes with side effects.

Selena underwent a kidney transplant in 2017 as a result of her lupus, and has often shared body positive messages amid years of toxic criticism surrounding her looks.

In January 2024, Selena shared an old bikini picture of herself on her Instagram story captioned: “Today I realized I’ll never look like this again.” She then added a more recent photo: “I’m not perfect but I am proud to be who I am—sometimes I forget it’s ok to be me.” It’s easy to forget that these celebs are real people sometimes, but us girls have GOT to look out for each other.
