After several months of being away from the limelight after checking herself into rehab to treat her depression and anxiety last August, Selena Gomez was back at the 2016 American Music Awards (AMA) where she also happened to receive the Favorite Pop/Rock Female Artist award.
The “Good For You” singer looked very radiant when she made a surprise appearance in the event in a gorgeous Prada gown, reports the Hollywood Take.
But her appearance was not the one which drew attention and took center stage during the event but her acceptance speech, which touched a lot of hearts on the night of November 20.
Selena said that she thinks it’s safe to say that a lot of people know a lot about her life whether she liked it or not and she had to stop.
She said that she had everything, and she was absolutely broken inside. She added that she kept it together and she swore she would never let her fans down
The 24-year-old singer also added that she does not want to see people’s bodies on Instagram because she wanted more to see what’s inside, pointing to her heart.
Selena cited that the problem was that she kept it too much together to where she let herself down, adding that she was not trying to get validation, nor does she needs it anymore.
Her speech drew loud cheers of support from the crowd including fellow music artists Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, and Camilla Bello. In fact, in her Instagram post, Lady Gaga cited Selena Gomez for having the biggest prize of all, which is her big heart that she shared with the world.
Shortly after her touching speech, rumors started going around that “The Heart Wants What it Wants” singer was actually referring to former boyfriend Justin Bieber when she mentioned being broken inside.
Fans of the former couple also got worried that the recent statement from Selena Gomez may mean that she and Justin Bieber will not be happening ever again.
But some critics believe that Selena’s statements only meant that she still loves Justin Bieber and the real reason why she was really hurt is because she really loves the “Purpose” singer.
The last interaction between Selena and Justin was during their controversial tiff on social media back in August that prompted the “Sorry” singer to momentarily deactivate his Instagram account and also forcing Selena to go on hiatus by checking herself into rehab.
Marriage rumors a hoax
Incidentally, there are also wild rumors coming out as of late saying that Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber are now secretly married, reports Headlines & Global News.
Apart from odd, the marriage really seems off notwithstanding the pronouncements made by the 24-year-old songstress during the 2016 AMA held on November 20.
But the wild rumors are saying that Justin and Selena have already tied the knot in a private ceremony.
According to the same set of speculations, what triggered the new round of rumors is when people have noticed that Selena Gomez has already been talking like she is already engaged.
But the rumors sound really absurd, judging from the most recent pronouncement of the family of Selena Gomez blaming Justin Bieber for her medical tailspin. In fact, they even asked Justin not to call, send SMS or e-mail or not any form of communication to Selena while she was in rehab.
Critics are also saying that if the supposed wedding did push through, her family may disown her because she made them look silly in protecting her against Justin.
No rekindling or romance
Incidentally, after Justin Bieber broke off last month with his girlfriend of six weeks Sofia Richie, fans started speculating that the “Sorry” singer is likely paving the way for his reunion with former girlfriend Selena Gomez.
Selena Gomez checked herself into rehab apparently to cure her depression because of her lupus but many are saying that her depression and anxiety were caused by that high-profile spat she had with Justin Bieber on Instagram.
That social media fight actually prompted Justin Bieber to momentarily deactivate his Instagram account as his verbal battle with Selena Gomez seemed to have gone out of hand.
