Selena Gomez Shares Makeup-Free Selfies, Shuts Down Plastic Surgery Rumors

Selena Gomez

Selena Gomez recently shared a series of selfies on Instagram, showcasing her different looks and moods, including both glammed-up and natural appearances. The post featured Gomez in various settings, from lounging in bed to blowing a kiss in a car, and even enjoying a movie night with popcorn. While some photos showed her casual side, others depicted her in a more glamorous light, hinting at her involvement in multiple projects.

Following speculation about cosmetic procedures, Gomez addressed the issue after a TikTok video by a plastic surgeon physician assistant suggested she had undergone work. The video, which has since been deleted, highlighted the impact of Gomez's autoimmune disease, lupus, on her appearance. The condition can cause changes that may be mistaken for cosmetic enhancements.

In response to the video, Gomez clarified that she has only had Botox and expressed frustration over the scrutiny of her appearance. She emphasized that her struggles with lupus and related health issues have led to fluctuations in her body, which have been unfairly criticized by some. Gomez has been candid about the challenges she faces due to her health conditions, including kidney problems that necessitated a transplant.

Despite the negative comments she has received, Gomez remains resilient and honest about her experiences. She has spoken out about the impact of body image issues on her mental health and how hurtful criticism can be. Gomez's openness about her health journey serves as a reminder of the importance of empathy and understanding when discussing celebrities' appearances.
