Selena Gomez Declares ‘Real Stomachs’ Are in While Showing Off Swimsuits on TikTok

Selena Gomez began her 30s with a trip to Italy and a much-needed dose of reality about appreciating your body exactly as it is online. The singer uploaded two one-piece videos to TikTok while she was on vacation on a boat.

Her second was set to her, makeup-free and lip-syncing about revealing her stomach as it is while wearing a one-piece she co-designed for her friend’s swimwear company, La’Mariette. She mouthed, “I’m not sucking stuff in. Real stomachs will be returning, ok?

Gomez also released a TikTok of herself lounging on a yacht in a black one-piece. She lip-synced, “What part of my face says talk to me?” while she sprayed Rare Beauty’s setting mist. There is “absolutely none.”

Gomez has previously been transparent about how body-shaming remarks on social media affected her. In a 2019 interview, she said, “I experienced it [bodyshaming] with my fluctuating weight for the first time. I suffer from a lot of health difficulties due to having lupus, including renal problems, and high blood pressure, and for me, that’s when I began experiencing more body image issues.

No, [my lupus does not affect my weight]; it is a result of all of them together. Honestly, it depends even on the month I have to take this drug for the rest of my life. I thus took particular note when others began to criticize me for it. That’s simply my truth, in actuality. I vacillate. Depending on what’s going on in my life. Right, and it really got to me. It’s completely out of my hands. That really screwed me up for a while, in my opinion.

I’m extremely content with the way I’m living my life, she said. We have discussed staying in the present since that is all there is. Like when I publish a picture and then leave, that’s it for me. I don’t need to see it; I’ll do a red carpet or anything else. I finished. I took part in it.

That is all that happened, and I felt fantastic. I don’t want to discuss it with everyone and hear their opinions. Gomez has spoken publicly about avoiding Instagram and other social media platforms for her own mental health.
