Selena Gomez reflects on her body transformation through swimsսit photos! sometimes i forget it’s ok to be me
Selena Gomez posted biкini images from the past and present as she spoke up to her fans about her body image.
Selena Gomez is not ashamed of how her physique has altered over the years. The 31-year-old “Single Soon” singer took to Instagram Stories on January 22 to share two biкini photos, one from the past and one more recent,
as she pondered on her bodily metamorphosis. Selena captioned the first shot, in which she donned a zebra biкini, “Today I realized I will never look like this again.”
Selena wore a high-waisted biкini bottom and a white biкini top in the second photo. “I’m not perfect, but I’m proud of who I am…” Sometimes I forget it’s okay to be myself,” she said.
Selena has long advocated for positive body image. In an October 2023 interview with Fast Company, she claimed that she was “embarrassed” when she lost her “teenager’s body” due to weight gain.
“There were times when I didn’t feel good about how I looked because of what I saw on Instagram,” the Only Murders in the Building stated, before adding that she used to think, “Wow, I wish my body looked like that.”
Selena revealed to her followers on TikTok in February 2023 that her lupus medicine has an impact on her body weight. “[When I’m taking it, I] tend to hold a lot of water weight, and that happens very normally,” she stated during a webcast.
“When I’m off it, I lose weight. I simply wanted to say something and inspire anyone out there who feels ashamed about what they’re going through since no one knows the whole story.””Not a model, never will be,”
Selena added in the TikTok video, arguing against body bullying. “And, to be clear, I think they’re wonderful. I am just not that. I just wanted to tell you how much I love you and how grateful I am for your support and understanding. And if not, go, because I honestly don’t believe in shaming people for [their bodies] or anything.”
