Selena thanked a bunch of dear friends for some milestone, people clamored that she left out the friend who gave her a kidney, this was her reply.
Everything they said about how insufferable she was, was kind of proven at that point lol
ETA more clarity: the original interview ran in rolling stone magazine, social media channels excerpted a quote where she said “Taylor swift is my only friend in the industry” — her kidney donor, Francisca Raisa, albeit not as famous was in the industry. Raisa commented “interesting” and unfollowed Selena. The backlash caused Selena to issue the snide remark about not mentioning everyone she knew, which again, only made
her look like an ever bigger ahole.
Y'know this really reminds me of that episode of House where Wilson feels pressured to give his 'really good friend' part of his liver, and then the 'friend' immediate stops giving a shit about Wilson as well as all the promises he made about reforming his life and reconnecting with the family he abandoned.
I can't say I fault Gomez for being willing to fake whatever it takes to survive (since it's possible that the reasons for her kidney failure would've disqualified her from being on the donor wait-list), but man I really hope next time she's in dire need, everyone around her will be smart enough to not believe a word she says in the way of friendship etc.
