Taylor Lautner and Selena Gomez in 2011; Eric Charbonneau\/WireImage<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Selena Gomez<\/strong>‘s appearance at the SAG Awards on Sunday caused online trolls to speculate if she’d used Ozempic to lose weight — after she was criticized for looking heavy at last year’s SAG Awards. Now, actor Taylor Lautner<\/strong> has taken to Instagram to defend the singer and actress.<\/p>\n

Lautner reposted an image<\/a>\u00a0from body positivity advocate Alex Light<\/strong> that shows side-by-side<\/a> pics of Selena at both events a year apart, as well as some of the body-shaming comments that people wrote about both pics.\u00a0 For example, the 2024 pic drew comments like, “Not to be mean but it’s time for Ozempic,” while the 2025 photo drew comments like, “She looked better thicc.”<\/p>\n

The Twilight<\/em> actor, who used to date Selena’s BFF Taylor Swift<\/strong>, captioned the image, “It\u2019s a cruel world full of hate out there, You can never please everyone nor should you have to. In my experience it doesn\u2019t make the words sting less, it just refocuses you onto what matters. And it sure isn\u2019t the shape, color or appearance of your body.”<\/p>\n

He continued, “Daily reminder to all of us to not forget how beautiful you are inside and out\u2026and be a little bit nicer.\u201d He soundtracked the post to the 2011 song “Who Says” by Selena and her former band The Scene<\/strong>, in which she sings, “You made me insecure\/ Told me I wasn\u2019t good enough\/ But who are you to judge?”<\/p>\n

On her original post, Light wrote<\/a>, “This isn\u2019t just about Selena, it\u2019s about the impossible standards placed on all women – in the public eye or not …\u00a0let\u2019s remind ourselves: our bodies are ours, not up for public discussion.”<\/p>\n

In the past, Selena has spoken about<\/a>\u00a0how the medications she takes for her various medical issues cause her weight to fluctuate.<\/p>\n
