Selena Gomez Is Being Slut-Shamed On Twitter & It Needs To Stop

There is never an excuse for this.
When Selena Gomez was spotted parading around on Instagram in next to nothing, we didn’t think anything of it. Not because it was expected, but because she can do what the F she wants, right?
We just commended the fact that the singer had made a comeback and went on with our day.

Mert Alas posted a photo of the ‘Hands To Myself’ lady in next to nothing, with just a towel covering her up and a tiny piece of underwear and hoop earrings. Needless to say, she looked amazing.
But it seems that some people haven’t been as supportive… especially when they delved into the archives and found a quote that Selena said when she accepted her award for Best Female Artist. Speaking at the awards ceremony, she commented, “I don’t want to see your bodies on Instagram. I want to see what’s in here”, as she touched her heart.

It is also worth noting that some fans did rush to defend her.

We think that everyone should probably just lay off Selena a little bit. Let’s bare in mind that she didn’t post the photo, her pal, Mert Alas did so it’s not exactly her fault.
