- LOS ANGELES — Actress-singer Selena Gomez shared that when it comes to
dealing with hate social media comments, women have it worse.
-
- During a recent appearance on the “On Purpose with Jay
Shetty Podcast,” Gomez and her partner, Benny Blanco, discussed social media
hate., reports variety.com.
-
- While Blanco said he doesn’t read into what people think
about him, Gomez shared a different view.
-
- Gomez said: “I was also going to point out that women
have it much worse. From my perspective, it’s pretty wild, and I think this
isn’t news to anybody, that obviously women have a lot more intense feelings
from their appearance to what they’re wearing to everything.”
-
- She said that her online perception affects how she
prepares for red carpets.
-
- “When I get prepared for an event, 90 percent of the time
I’m just like, ‘I just hope I can take the picture and sit down.’” Gomez said.
-
- “It’s the character that gets judged, it’s the way I’m
not white enough, I’m not Mexican enough.”
-
- She said that there’s just so many different things that
come up in her “face that I can’t help but see, but I fall victim to looking at
things, and it really doesn’t add to your life, but it’s just so difficult.”
-
- “From the choices of people you date…it’s like nobody
cares about those kind of things with men.”
-
- Gomez said that recently, “everyone” online “had
something to say” about her weight.
-
- “Oh yeah, my weight’s a big one too. It’s really making
me sad and — not even sad cause, I’m not a victim…I just think it’s made me a
tad bitter, and I feel really guilty for saying that, but it’s true.”
-
- In other news, her music producer fiance said that the
singer-actress was “grumpy” and “almost didn’t come” on the day of the
proposal.
