Selena Gomez Oozes Body Positivity Goals Yet Again! (Picture Credit: Instagram)
Selena Gomez has struggled with health issues over the years. She was diagnosed with Lupus between 2012-2014, which caused anxiety, depression, and panic attacks. Things did not get better after the kidney transplant, as she faced weight issues due to water retention in her body. The Only Murders In The Building actress has finally realized her drastic transformation but is oozing out body positivity goals. Scroll below for all the details!
Time and again, Sel is trolled for gaining weight. She has previously broken her silence and blamed the Lupus medications for it. The Single Soon singer mentioned that she tends to hold a lot of water weight when she’s on medicines, which causes swelling.

Yes, it has been suggested that the Arrowverse first took flight with Arrow‘s own October 2012 premiere. But truly, it was 14 months later, on Dec. 4, 2013 — when Barry Allen aka the would-be Flash first set foot in Starling City — that TV’s expanded DC universe started to take shape.
This is where I remind you that when The CW gave a series about Green Arrow a green light, the notion of eventually introducing other standalone hero series was but a gleam in anybody’s eye.

Gomez began her career on the children’s TV series Barney & Friends, proving her talent and going on to land many other high-profile opportunities. These days, Gomez is an actor and singer with many irons in the fire — but many of her fans still know her best for her work on the Disney Channel, specifically as Alex Russo in Wizards of Waverly Place.
However, in the years following Gomez’s departure from the show, she lost touch with many of her co-stars. In a recent podcast interview with her Wizards of Waverly Place co-stars Jennifer Stone and David DeLuise, Gomez revealed why she fell out of touch with them.

On Monday’s episode of the Wizards of Waverly Pod with Jennifer Stone and David DeLuise, the singer said her biggest mistake so far was “not staying in touch” with her co-stars from the series.

So many red carpets. So many celebs. When my editors asked me to name my top 10 red carpet interviews of 2022, it wasn’t an easy task because there were so many memorable — and often times, viral — moments.
I could have easily included Joel Kim Booster talking about his sex scene with Zane Phillips that was cut from “Fire Island.” Or how about how Ariana DeBose telling me at the Oscars how she called then-Disney chief Bob Chapek about the studio’s disappointing response to Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” bill? I will never forget Jonathan Groff singing “The Music That Makes Me Dance” from “Funny Girl” at D23 or Omar Apollo revealing he had a childhood crush on “Wizards of Waverly Place” star David Henrie. Anitta not only sang some Britney Spears at the MTV VMAs, but she also gave me some Mariah Carey at the American Music Awards.
