Although social media may have given celebrities a chance to interact more with their fans, it can occasionally come out as being very judgmental. Selena Gomez recently encountered a comparable circumstance when viewers of a recent TikTok video observed her hands trembling.
While some admirers worried about the singer-actor’s health, others started making fun of her physical appearance. In order to stop the trolls, Gomez has finally spoken out about the incident and explained the cause of her condition.
Selena Gomez Reveals Why Her Hands were Shaky in Recent TikTok Video
A recent video that the 30-year-old singer released shows her going through her skincare and cosmetics routine. She was seen wiping her face gently with a towel at one point in the video and dabbing micellar water onto a sponge. She did, however, have a tiny tremble in her hand as everyone observed.
Then, several people commented on the video. Some others raised alarm and questioned the condition’s cause. Others simply began making fun of the singer for being unable to control her hands. Finally speaking to the public, Gomez recalled that she was just diagnosed with lupus and is still taking medicine.
Her hands are trembling as a result of the medication’s negative effects. In response to a TikTok that discussed the incident, she said, “Lol I shake due of my lupus meds.” Read my disclaimer as well. I’m not a pro, she continued with a laughing face emoji.
The Pop Star was Diagnosed with Lupus in 2014
In 2014, Gomez received a lupus diagnosis. The term “disease” refers to “a situation in which your body’s immune system attacks its own tissues and organs.” Because of the disease, she needed a kidney transplant in 2017. Her donor at the time was her friend Francia Raisa.
“I was healing when I learned that I required a kidney transplant because of my lupus. I had to do it for my general well-being. There are no enough words to express my gratitude to my lovely buddy Francia Raisa, the Only Murders in the Building actor had written on Instagram.
“She donated her kidney to me as the greatest gift and act of sacrifice. I am so unbelievably fortunate. I adore you a lot, sis. Although lupus is still widely misunderstood, advancements are being made, she had noted.
Gomez has been Vocal about her Struggle with the Disease
Selena has never been afraid to discuss her illness and spread awareness of it. Selena Gomez has stated in her documentary Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me that she received a second Lupus diagnosis in 2020. “I haven’t experienced it since my youth. It aches like everything when I wake up in the morning, she added, and I immediately start crying.
The singer of Calm Down also discussed receiving a diagnosis of bipolar disorder, saying, “I found having a relationship with bipolar and myself, it’s going to be there. Now I’m just treating it like a friend. I’m content. I’m furious. I’m sad. I’m capable. I’m hesitant a lot. I’m still developing. I am sufficient. “Hello, I’m Selena,” she said.
