Taylor Lautner is stepping up to support Selena Gomez as she faces relentless body-shaming on social media. Recently, he shared an eye-opening post from influencer Alex Light on his Instagram Story. The post highlighted the conflicting comments about Selena’s body at the 2024 and 2025 SAG Awards.
Light pointed out, “Last year, Selena was ridiculed for gaining weight and told to try Ozempic. This year, she’s being criticized for losing weight, with similar accusations.” She emphasized that this issue goes beyond Selena; it reflects the unrealistic expectations many women face. “No matter our size, someone always has an opinion about our bodies. Remember, our bodies belong to us, not the public,” she urged.
Lautner, who has spoken about his struggles with mental health after filming the Twilight series, added his thoughts: “It’s a tough world filled with negativity.” He reminded everyone that trying to please everyone is impossible and shouldn’t be the goal. “What matters most is not our appearance but how we feel inside. Don’t forget that you are beautiful, both inside and out,” he said. “Let’s all try to be a bit kinder.”
Selena has been open about her health journey, revealing her lupus diagnosis in 2015 and undergoing a kidney transplant in 2017. Throughout her career, from her early days on Disney Channel’s Wizards of Waverly Place to her role in Only Murders in the Building, she has faced body shaming and addressed it head-on. Selena has talked about experiencing weight fluctuations due to her lupus and the medication she takes. Her resilience and honesty have inspired many, showing that everyone’s body tells a story and deserves respect.
