As a gamer who has seen my fair share of online harassment and body shaming, I can empathize with Selena Gomez’s experience. As someone who has been in the public eye for most of my life, I too have faced criticism and scrutiny over my appearance and personal choices. It’s disheartening to see people speculate about your physical changes without considering the context or underlying health issues that may be at play.
1. Over the past few years, Selena Gomez has frequently spoken up against body shaming and bullying, especially concerning comments about her weight changes. She’s been open about the impact of her lupus medication on her body, yet she often faces support from her fans when she decides to address such criticisms. Recently, after a TikToker posted side-by-side photos comparing Gomez’s appearance, many came to the fan’s defense instead of backing Selena.
Selena Gomez Slams Video That Commented On Her Physical Changes
In April 2023, TikTok user Marissa the PA (a plastic surgeon known for sharing content about Botox and fillers) posted side-by-side photos showing Selena Gomez’s facial transformation through the years. In her video, she deliberately avoided guessing the reasons behind these changes, respecting Selena Gomez’s privacy due to her medical history, stating: “I won’t speculate on the causes as we don’t know the details from ‘Only Murders in the Building’ star.”
I’ve followed Selena closely for a long time, and given her extensive life experiences, particularly in terms of her health challenges, it seems unfair to me to jump to conclusions about cosmetic procedures she may or may not have undergone. While some attribute her physical changes to conditions like lupus, others point to other possibilities, I find myself utterly baffled. The truth is, I don’t have a clue what to make of it all.
Move forward approximately a year, the post eventually reached Selena Gomez. The “Lose You to Love Me” artist found the speculation less than appealing, expressing her feelings by commenting on it.
1. To put it simply, I really dislike this situation. It’s due to a flare-up that I’ve been dealing with. I’ve had Botox treatments. That’s all there is to it. Please respect my privacy.
1. After a somewhat late response, Selena Gomez’s noticeable reaction led to an instant apology from the TikTok user and fans expressing their opinions on the matter as well.
Fans Defend TikToker After Selena Gomez’s Response
The TikToker appeared both thrilled and taken aback when Selena Gomez replied, expressing surprise and dismay for having inadvertently upset the actress. Marissa, the PA, extended an apology to her “majesty” with a seemingly heartfelt tone, acknowledging why Gomez reacted as she did and clarifying that discussing cosmetic surgery was her way of making it less stigmatized.
Additionally, she mentioned that she no longer shares before-and-after photos as she didn’t mean to put others down, but unfortunately, some took it that way. Here’s the link to her heartfelt apology for further information.

Some fans were taken aback by Selena Gomez’s strong response to the earlier post, as evident from various comments such as:
- You were so nice and understanding in the video though – soapbox125
- You said NOTHING bad in your video!!!!! Truly she must have not even watched it – fluentlyforward
- Girl you were 100% respectful. Don’t fret. – hannah.radagan
1. The commentators also showed respect to the actress from “Wizards of Waverly Place” who has been in the industry for a while, suggesting that her recent response might have been an immediate reaction due to the criticism she’s experienced previously. TikToker _chicknorris put it this way:
It’s possible that due to the repeated criticism she faced, opening the app to see transformations may have seemed like immediate scrutiny, regardless of any compliment or lack thereof. 😕
1. I’m sure Selena Gomez received the apology too, and I hope she realizes it came from a sincere place. Meanwhile, it’s heartening to learn that Marissa, the personal assistant, had already ceased using comparison photos even before the actress addressed the issue herself.
Interested spectators of the ex-child actor can check out “Only Murders in the Building,” as its next season, being the fourth, is set to debut on Tuesday, August 27. However, please note that you’ll need a Hulu subscription to watch it.
