Singer Selena Gomez has announced that she will be taking time away from the spotlight to focus on her health.

The Good For You singer – who is currently travelling with her Revival World Tour – admitted that she has been suffering with depression and anxiety, two conditions which can be side effects of an autoimmune disease called Lupus which the star suffers from.

In a statement which was first published by PEOPLE, Selena said:  “As many of you know, around a year ago I revealed that I have lupus, an illness that can affect people in different ways.”

“I've discovered that anxiety, panic attacks and depression can be side effects of lupus, which can present their own challenges.”

The 24-year-old explained that she now needs to be proactive when it comes to her health and thanked her fans – who are often called ‘Selenators’ – for their support.

She said: “I want to be proactive and focus on maintaining my health and happiness and have decided that the best way forward is to take some time off.”

“Thank you to all my fans for your support. You know how special you are to me, but I need to face this head on to ensure I am doing everything possible to be my best.”

 

 

My whole life. You matter most. Thank you for letting me do what I love every day.

The former Disney star finished by encouraging those suffering from similar issues to get help.

“I know I am not alone by sharing this, I hope others will be encouraged to address their own issues.”

It is not yet known when exactly Selena’s career break will begin or whether it will interrupt the remainder of her tour.

It looks like Selena Gomez might have a few regrets since going after her ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber yesterday.

After JB lashed out on Instagram, telling his fans he'll make his account private (he actually deleted it this morning), Selena jumped in to defend, saying he shouldn't make his fans mad because "they love you and support you before anyone ever did."

Well, it appears she has regrets about saying anything at all as she took to Snapchat last night to post this:

Will they ever make up?

Selena Gomez sent her Irish fans into a total tailspin last April after announcing that she would be taking to the stage in the 3Arena this November.

As part of the European leg of The Revival Tour, the former Disney star revealed that she would be playing Dublin this winter, and it sounds like she cannot wait to meet her European fanbase.

With a few months to go  – the tour kicks off in Helsinki on October 10th – Selena decided to record a special message for her continental followers, and it is beyond sweet.

"Every single stop that I am going to, I am more than beyond excited to be there and see everybody," she said in the footage which hit YouTube today.

"To be able to travel the world and meet all of my fans means the world to me," she added. (Sorry Justin, that's just how Sel rolls…) 

And if you're still in dire need of a ticket for her Dublin gig on November 8th, be sure to sort yourself out here

We all know Justin Bieber can be a little precious when he wants to be.

From issuing a ban on photos with fans to discarding cuddly toys he doesn't want to share a car with, the Love Yourself singer has never hidden his need to have things his way

And it sounds like Selena Gomez has had enough of his whinging.

It all kicked off when Justin shared a snap of himself with Sofia Richie on Instagram –  a move which appeared to really upset die-hard Beliebers (You know how they can get.)

And instead of turning a blind eye to the snake emojis posted by tweens 'in love' with the Canadian star, Justin got super narky and told his followers he'd be forced to go private if they didn't…you know.. grow up.
 

"I'm gonna make my Instagram private if you guys don't stop the hate. This is getting out of hand, if you guys are really fans you wouldn't be so mean to people that I like," he protested.

Clearly irked that her ex-boyfriend was bitching and moaning while flaunting his supposed new relationship online, Selena decided to weigh in and offer JB a little sound advice.

"If you can't handle the hate then stop posting pictures of your girlfriend lol – it should be special between you two only," she wrote.

"Don't be mad at your fans. They love you." Selena wrote before editing it to read: "They love and supported you before anyone ever did."
 

 

My whole life. You matter most. Thank you letting me do what I love every day.

Responding to his former girlfriend's jibe, Justin replied: "It's funny to see people that used me for attention and still try to point the finger this way. Sad."

Whether she could care less about Justin's response or not, the former Disney star twisted the knife further by then uploading a collage in honour of her supporters.

Showing Justin how fans should be treated in her eyes, Selena captioned the collage: "My whole life. You matter most. Thank you letting me do what I love every day."

Throwing on tracksuit bottoms used to be a sign that you've totally given up in the style stakes.

Putting your trackies on with an over-sized hoodie made everything comfy and even if you didn't look your *best*, you were warm and cosy and that's all that mattered.

Well, athleisure has taken over the fashion world by storm over the last few seasons and Selena Gomez is the latest celeb to rock the trend.

Except, she rocked it in a pair of tracksuit bottoms that cost more than most of us pay for rent.

Coming in at $665 (€612), it's hard to justify paying that much for trackie bottoms, but I have to say, Selena made the outfit look totally kick-ass.

Athleisure is here to stay, ladies.

Selena Gomez is absolutely killing it on Instagram lately, and it is PAYING off. 

Earlier this month, the young singer became the most followed person on the social media site, thanks to being “100 percent” herself and "good lighting.​"

Well, it turns out that Selena is raking in the cash as a result of her popularity on Instagram.

According to data company D'Marie Analytics, a post from the Slow Down singer is worth €500,000 when it appears across Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. 

Selena's success on social media is attributed to ignoring sponsored post requests for random products, only advertising those that fit her personal brand.

Selena recently posted a picture of herself with a bottle of Coca Cola, which is now the most liked post on Instagram, with 5 million likes. 

The 23-year-old gains approximately 200,000 new followers every month, reinforcing the fact that she is QUEEN of Instagram. 

All hail!

Pop sensation Selena Gomez might be smashing her current Revival world tour but unfortunately that doesn’t mean the star is feeling totally herself.

Last night the singer got real with fans at her Indonesian concert and later used Instagram to share her emotions with the world in a heartfelt post.

According to Billboard, Selena appeared to get a little teary on-stage as she explained to her audience why the song Kill Em With Kindness is so important to her.  She said: “I get really frustrated. I get stupid sometimes.”

“I say things that I don’t mean, or that come out wrong just because I care so badly. But the thing is, at the end of the day, no war in anger was ever won.”

“I do know that deep down in my heart that I have to believe that we can love each other and always be kind no matter what it takes in us.”

While it’s not totally clear what sparked the star’s emotional presence, she later took to Instagram to say she “felt extremely unauthentic, unconnected to both myself and my music”.

 

 

Selena – who has just turned 24 – wrote: “I've never really felt like my materials, wardrobe or a video could define me. I act on a moment and fear something that hasn't happened.”

“I'm stagnant, I stay still and don't just sit with myself first and ask 'is this where I am, whole heartedly?'”

“I've always told the truth. I'm always true to my word, I've shown who I am but I need to rethink some areas of my life creatively and personally. had to get that out."

 

 

The post was captioned: “not being negative about anything I've done. I'm grateful for every single moment I get here – Indonesia you were LOUD and clearly inspiring. Love you so much.”

The Good For You singer has received an abundance of support from fans since the post first appeared with one writing: “I know you'll probably never read this but i, and all selenators, love you so much and will always be here for you no matter what. Please stay strong and don't loose that smile who stays us alive (sic).”

And another said: “Thank u for sharing. I think we all have those inauthentic moments. Your authenticity will rise above again. Sometimes we just slip into an inauthentic space (sic).”

Ariana Grande has been rocking a similar style for AGES now. High half ponytail with loads of volume?

Yup… that'll be Ms Grande alright.

However, the 23-year-old songstress has finally taken the plunge – opting for a cut and colour that is totally GORGEOUS on her.

Hinting at the revamp with a black-and-white full-lenght selfie yesterday, Ariana has now given fans a proper glimpse of her new do.

Rocking a darker, deep brunette hue, the Florida-born star showed off a fab fringe which totally freshened-up her appearance.

And while most fans were gushing over those bangs, it seems that some online observers weren't quite so happy… because, they claim, she's only copying rival popstar Selena Gomez's look.

Selena, 24, debuted her fringe back in June – and we have to admit that Ms Grande's revamped tresses are remarkably similar. 

Still, one Instagram user offered: "Why is every selenator hating Ariana bc of her hair, Selena and Ariana are friends…"

With everything that's been going on of late – Kim, Kanye, Calvin & Co. – understandably, Taylor Swift hasn't had much time to tend to her usually busy social media platforms.

However, she has now emerged from self-imposed digital exile, taking to Instagram to mark the 24th birthday of her BFF Selena Gomez.

Posting a throwback snap of the duo making a heart with their hands, the singer wrote: “Going through old pictures today, because @selenagomez just turned 24! 

“I can’t imagine my life without you, Selena. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!”

Selena has had her friend's back in recent weeks, as Ms Swift, 26, manages the fall-out from her Kimye feud, the breakdown of her relationship with Calvin Harris, and her new romance with Tom Hiddleston. 

And the birthday gal also took to Twitter today with a 26-second long acoustic-sounding snippet from a forthcoming song.

"Did this on my birthday… coming soon. Thank you so all the love. I love you guys, God bless," she wrote as she shared her new music.

Significantly, the unveiled lyrics sang: "The world can be a nasty place. You know it; I know it.

"Still you don't have to fall from grace. Put down the weapons you fight with."

Which, coincidently, we reckon sound mighty suitable for Ms Tay-Tay Swift.

Between smashing her current Revival tour and becoming the proud owner of the most liked photo on Instagram, it’s happy days for Selena Gomez. 

And it seems those at camp Gomez are getting in on the good vibes as the star’s makeup artist Melissa Murdick has released a new makeup tutorial in which she demonstrates one of the singer’s best Revival looks.

The informative video was posted to the Revival Tour Instagram account this evening and explains to viewers how they can recreate Selena’s copper smoky eye.

The step-by-step clip states that you should apply a medium copper eyeshadow to the lid and into the crease of the eye in an elongated shape, before applying a deeper shade to the outer corner and inner crease.

Melissa then applies a thin line of black liquid liner along the lash line.  She explains that for extra drama false lashes can also be added at this stage.

The celebrity MUA then advises viewers to add definition to the eye by applying a brown shadow below the lower lash line and finish the look by filling in the brows.  Ladies, it’s that simple.

Having your girl's back is the number one rule of friendship, and it looks like Selena Gomez might have her work cut out for her this week.

With her BFF, Taylor Swift, coming in for seriously harsh criticism on social media this morning, the former Disney star did what any self-respecting BFF would do, and desperately attempted to deflect attention away from the media circus that is the Swift/ West feud.

Soon after Kim Kardashian leaked footage of Taylor appearing to approve the Kanye West lyrics which she always maintained she hadn't, Selena took to Twitter to remind people that there are much more important things going on in the world right now.

"There are more important things to talk about. Why can't people use their voice for something that f*cking matters?" she wrote in a post earlier this morning.
 

"Truth is last thing we need right now is hate, in any form," she added in a sentence which had many Twitter users scratching their heads until they realised Selena was not against truth, but all for love. (Phew, right?!)

While she doesn't directly reference Kim's leaked footage, fans and followers were fairly certain she was referring to the ongoing feud, and added their two cents to the discussion, with one writing: "Then you should check your girl."

"This industry is so disappointing yet the most influential smh," she added in a third tweet to which one follower replied: "Is Taylor holding a gun to your head as you tweet this or?"

Ouch!
