    Another user wrote, ‘Wowwww….She is looking her absolute best these days.” Though there were some X users speculating that Gomez might be using “Ozempic.” Adding more fuel to the flame, one user said that Gomez “looks different every time” they see her.

    Fans came to the singer’s rescue. Mentioning her disease, one user added, “Her weight fluctuates due to her lupus and various medications. She always looks lovely.” While another mentioned the kidney transplant the singer had undergone in 2017, and said, “Since she had a kidney transplant and has lupus, meds can be messing with her weight.”

    Gomez’s weight has been a topic of discussion for some time now. Battling lupus, an autoimmune disease, the star has previously revealed her weight often fluctuates due to her medication. In a TikTok live stream in 2023, Gomez explained, “I tend to hold a lot of water weight, and that happens very normally, and then when I’m off it, I tend to kind of lose weight.”

    She noted that the minor side effect is incomparable to her health, adding, “My medications are important, and I believe they are what helps me.”

    Gomez clapped back at bodyshamers, saying, “I’m not a model. Never will be.”

    “I just wanted to say and encourage anyone out there who feels any sort of shame for exactly what [you’re] going through, [when] nobody knows the real story… you’re beautiful, and you’re wonderful,” she continued.

    Clapping back at body shamers, she also expressed, “I’m not a model. Never will be. And I think they’re awesome, mind you. I’m just definitely not that. I just wanted to tell you I love you guys and thanks for supporting me and understanding. And if not … go away. Because, honestly, I don’t believe in shaming people for [their bodies] or anything.”

    Gomez has been subject to a considerable amount of body shaming online

    While at the premiere of her recent film, Emilia Perez, in Los Angeles back in November, Gomez was photographed in a black dress with her hands over her stomach. The photographs led to ridicule on TikTok, while users called Gomez insecure as they thought she was trying to hide her figure.

    Upon speculations, Gonez lashed out on the social media platform, explaining, “This makes me sick. I have SIBO in my small intestine. It flares up. I don’t care that I don’t look like a stick figure. I don’t have that body. End of story. No I am NOT a victim. I’m just human.”

    Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) is a condition that occurs when there’s an increase in the bacterial population in the small intestine. It can cause digestive symptoms, including bloating and pain.

    Gomez won her first SAG Award with her Only Murders in the Buildingcast

    Why are people so goddamn obsessed with ozempic. Selena was on steroid medication for ages and that stuff makes you bloated and struggle with weight loss. Just get on with your own mundane lives and let others too.

    Because diabetics **needed** the medication but the cost became exorbitant and the med was hard to find because a large number of celebrities were using it for weight loss and not for diabetes.

    After a trauma I endured I have been struggling with weight loss my whole life. Now I have complications from being overweight, but I don’t want to have gastric bypass surgery. But to tell you the truth: if they gave me Ozempic, I would take it. I am SO done with being overweight. And having fibromyalgia makes it so hard to have a good fitness routine. Fml.

    Just because there is a d**g out there doesn't mean that everyone who loses weight is on it. Some people lose weight and get healthy the old fashioned way especially if you have the money for personal trainers and nutritionists and private chefs. It does not mean she is on ozempic and she likely is not because of the side effects and she has lupus. It's just an excuse to not congratulate people and shame them instead. She looks good leave her alone who cares really

    Don't you know that people can't think in gray anymore? There is only black or white and since it appears she's lost weight, she must be using Ozempic. Clear as the day is long /s
