    Selena Gomez admits losing ‘teenager’s body’ left her ’embarrassed,’ led to relentless body shaming

    Selena Gomez, a renowned artist and actress, has faced relentless body-shaming throughout her career, with her weight fluctuations becoming tabloid fodder. Despite these challenges, Gomez has emerged stronger, openly addressing her struggles with body image and mental health. In this article, we delve into her inspiring journey, from fame to adversity and triumph.

    The Price of Fame: Selena Gomez catapulted to international stardom during her Disney Channel days. However, her life took a significant turn when she was diagnosed with lupus while transitioning into adulthood. This diagnosis was followed by a kidney transplant in 2017, leaving her body scarred. Gomez candidly acknowledges that post-surgery, she realized she no longer had the body of a teenager. She expressed her frustration in an interview with Fast Company, questioning the unrealistic expectation that a woman’s body should remain unchanged.

    “None of the sample sizes were fitting, and that would make me feel embarrassed,” she shared.

    Body-Shaming and Social Media: The scrutiny intensified when Gomez was photographed in a bikini in Australia, revealing her scars. Haters seized the opportunity, and at the same time, she was navigating a public breakup with Justin Bieber. The dual pressure became overwhelming, leading her to take a step back from social media.

    “I had just gotten my heart broken. I didn’t need to see what everyone was doing,” she confessed. “Then there were those moments of not feeling positive about how I looked because of what I’d see on Instagram. ‘Wow, I wish my body looked like that,'” she recalled thinking.

    Mental Health Struggles: Amidst the body-shaming, Gomez faced significant mental health challenges. She was later diagnosed with bipolar disorder, which shed light on her emotional highs and lows. She described the torment she felt during this period, expressing the desire to cancel engagements and the difficulty in controlling her emotions.

    “I went through a really hard season. It was my highs and my lows, and I didn’t know what to do, so I couldn’t control it,” Gomez revealed.

    Embracing Transparency: Gomez’s decision to openly discuss her private battles was a pivotal step in her journey to self-acceptance. She confessed that her people-pleasing nature and early responsibilities had made her walk on eggshells. However, she realized the importance of being genuine about her struggles and her identity.

    “I grew up being a people pleaser. I had a responsibility at a very young age — young people were looking up to me. I didn’t know who I was. Having that responsibility would make me walk on eggshells a lot,” she acknowledged.

    Triumph and Rare Beauty: Despite the hardships, Selena Gomez has found her rhythm and achieved remarkable success. In addition to her acting and singing career, her cosmetics company, Rare Beauty, is projected to surpass $300 million in sales for 2023, as reported by Fast Company.
