Hollywood stars are a constant source of gossip. Whether the subject is their professional or personal lives, fashion sense, or aesthetic appearance, any change in their lives that becomes public knowledge can lead to even more rumors.
While we all know to take every piece of gossip with a grain of salt, the more these rumors spread and the more we hear them repeated over and over again, the more likely we are to start accepting them as truth–even if they haven’t actually been confirmed.
Like all celebrities, Selena Gomez has been the subject of many rumors, including several about her appearance and possible cosmetic procedures, including breast augmentation. But has Selena ever had plastic surgery or cosmetic treatments? What sparked the rumors and gossip about her?
Selena Gomez And Breast Augmentation: What Are The Rumors?
From the time she was young, Selena Gomez has been in the spotlight. Throughout her teenage years and into adulthood, Selena has been subjected to the gossip and rumors that swirl around Hollywood stars. Paparazzi have followed her, trying to get the next image to sell to tabloid magazines that will then elicit even more gossip.
Because celebrities like Selena are constantly in front of the public and having their pictures taken, it may be a bit easier for us to notice when something looks different about them. And, because of their wealth and access to plastic surgeons, we assume that the change must be due to a cosmetic procedure.
Many celebrities choose to have cosmetic surgeries or treatments to keep themselves looking and feeling their best. Selena has openly admitted to having Botox injections. However, she has denied rumors of other treatments or surgeries, such as breast augmentation, stating that she hasn’t had any other procedures.
While some people may roll their eyes and assume she’s being disingenuous, they’re forgetting one significant detail about Selena–her lupus diagnosis.
How Lupus Can Impact Appearance
As most of us know, our bodies and faces change as we age. Women are even more prone to changes in their looks due to hormone fluctuations. Even medical conditions can impact how we look, including lupus, the condition Selena was diagnosed with.
Since this diagnosis, Selena’s appearance has fluctuated. Sometimes, her face and body are slimmer; sometimes, her face is round. The reason for this is likely due to lupus. Not only can the condition cause weight fluctuations, but the medications used to treat it may also lead to changes in weight.
The truth is lupus may be the cause of any physical changes Selena has undergone over the last decade. While some claim she’s had cheek implants or breast implants, changes in both these areas of the body can easily be related to lupus symptoms.
Did Selena Gomez Have Breast Augmentation?
While rumors continue to circulate about Selena Gomez and whether or not she had breast augmentation, we’ll simply stick to the facts. Selena denies any cosmetic surgery, stating that she has only had Botox injections.
Commenting on beauty standards today, Selena said, “There are so many unrealistic expectations for women in our society and a pressure to look and act a certain way. Social media has definitely influenced our idea of ‘perfect,’ and we often turn to these platforms for validation and comfort. But in the end, this also makes us all feel a bit lonelier.”
No one can tell us whether Selena has had breast augmentation surgery or not–other than Selena herself. So, we’ll label this topic “gossip” rather than “fact” and chalk it up to Hollywood’s neverending rumor mill.
Honestly, it really doesn’t matter if Selena Gomez has had breast augmentation or not; she’s still a talented singer, actress, and businesswoman who has built a successful career in Hollywood and maintained a level of self-esteem, all while battling a chronic illness. Now, that’s something that deserves to be talked about.
