Selena Gomez might be more popular than ever and hold a status as the most-followed woman on Instagram, but the former Disney star doesn’t appear to have shaken all of the trolls. Selena, 31, was bullied by fans who viewed her Paris hotel room snaps in late February, ones coming as she continues to embrace the French capital amid the release of her Paris-themed “Love On” single.
Selena posted to social media in selfie mode as she rocked a braless white tank while also snacking on potato chips. The Daily Mail was quick to cover the photos, and it was here that Gomez was subject to straight-up bullying.
Selena Gomez Gets Snacking In Paris Instagram Photos
In an article that seemed geared toward highlighting the star’s curves, Selena was described as putting her “best assets” on show.
Stunning in a plunging, thin-strapped tank top in white, the “Wolves” singer sizzled as she flashed her cleavage and toned arms while lounging around in bed. Raising a lip to strike a fun, foxy facial expression, the brunette glammed up with gorgeous earrings and a red lip, then sharing a shot of herself stuffing her face with a bag of potato chips. She even went for the drinking-from-the-bag vibe as she indulged in a little cheat food.
Bullying Comments Over Hotel Room Snaps
While Selena had clearly opted out of a professional photography team and wasn’t aiming to look glamorous, she was met with less-than-kind comments. “Not the most flattering pictures,” a user said, topping replies as over 200 others agreed.
Also gaining likes was a user claiming: “Funny, Selena used to put down women who exposed their bodies on social media, but now she’s the one doing it all the time,” however another fan shot this down by saying that Selena “never” did this.
While one fan called Selena “wooden” as they even questioned her acting abilities, another called one of the classiest celebs around “sleazy.”
“She’s become kind of sleazy in the last few years,” they wrote. A particularly cruel exchange saw a fan ask: “Why is she always trying to prove she’s hot?” with a clearly tormenting response reading: “Because she’s not.”
The stats tell a different story, though. In the wake of her alleged 2023 feud with model Hailey Bieber, Selena’s popularity shot up, as did her Instagram following. Selena now boasts 429 million Instagram followers and proves adored for being a mental health warrior and a body-positive celebrity.
