The 'Only Murders in the Building' star has talked previously about having Lupus and how it's affected her life.

Selena Gomez put some trolls in their place after they made a comment on one of her latest TikTok videos.

The Only Murders in the Building star created a video of her skincare and makeup routine. While applying product, her hands were barely noticeably shaking.


Of course that was the focus of trolls. They quickly scrutinized her unsteady hands and commented on it.

Gomez didn't waste any time addressing them.

@selenagomez PSA I got most of these products free. I ain’t just rolling like that everywhere. Use any serum to take off make up before washing. It breaks it up nicely. Also use a sponge to wipe eyes to treat eyes delicately when removing make up. K I’m done pretending I know what I’m taking about.

She commented—but then later deleted:

"Lol I shake because of my medication for lupus."
"Also read my disclaimer. I ain't no pro."

Her fans were also quick to have her back.






The singer and actor was diagnosed with lupus in 2014 and has been public about her struggles with the disease as well as the effects of her medication.

Gomez had a kidney transplant in 2017 and opened up about the challenges she faces—both physically and mentally dealing with an invisible chronic illness—in her 2022 documentary Selena Gomez: My Mind and Me.

Invisible chronic illnesses are those that can't be detected by just looking at a person. The person not "looking sick" leads to a lot of ignorant reactions and misunderstandings from others.

Gomez revealed:

"I haven't felt it since I was younger. In the morning when I wake up, I immediately start crying because it just hurts, like, everything."

The "Love You Like a Love Song" singer also discussed her diagnosis and continued treatment for bipolar disorder in the film.

You can watch the documentary and learn more about her journey on Apple TV+.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
