The female singer is making netizens confused with her beauty.
Selena Gomez, the 33-year-old singer and actress, was once one of Hollywood’s most famous child stars, with her journey to adulthood being followed by the public for many years. From the lively Disney girl to the artist who owns a series of hits and the famous cosmetic brand Rare Beauty, Selena has always proven her ability and influence in the entertainment industry.
But behind the halo is a challenging journey. At the age of 24, Selena Gomez was diagnosed with lupus erythematosus, an autoimmune disease that causes the immune system to attack organs in the body, especially the kidneys. She had to undergo a life-threatening kidney transplant and long-term hormone treatment. As a result, her face and body changed significantly, becoming fuller, which caused Selena to receive a lot of negative comments from social networks.
However, the singer has been constantly trying to regain her health and balance her life. In recent months, Selena has surprised fans by appearing with a slimmer figure. The wedding photos she shared earlier this month quickly went viral, receiving a “shower” of compliments for her youthful, radiant appearance.
Continuing her positive image series, Selena Gomez officially returned to the music scene with her new song In The Dark . In the MV, she wore a tube top and a high-cut jumpsuit, confidently showing off her weight loss results and seductive demeanor. However, this comeback also caused many mixed opinions. Some netizens commented that Selena’s face looked “different”, stiff and lacking the familiar softness. Comments such as “She’s no longer as sweet as before”, “Losing weight too quickly makes her face gaunt” or “I almost don’t recognize her anymore” quickly appeared on forums.
On the contrary, many fans believe that this change is just an effect of lighting and camera angles in the MV. “Lighting can really make a face look different. Selena is still very beautiful at recent events,” one comment defending her wrote. Others also believe that the MV could have been filmed months ago, when she was still in the treatment process.
In fact, Selena’s recent photos at events like the Emmy Awards or the Oscar Museum Charity Dinner show that she still maintains her charisma, bright smile, and sophisticated fashion sense. Although her figure changes over time, the singer’s vitality and confidence are what make the public love her.
After a long journey of fighting illness and public pressure, Selena Gomez seems to have learned to live more fully with herself. She no longer tries to follow the strict standards of Hollywood beauty, but focuses on mental health and positive values. With In The Dark , Selena not only reaffirms her position in music, but also conveys a strong message of resilience and self-love, which has always made her an admired icon in the hearts of fans around the world.
