Selena's Billion-Dollar Glow Up: Weight Loss, Rare Beauty, and Wedding Bells
Descripción del Episodio
Selena Gomez has been everywhere lately and not just in the ways we’re used to. After months of speculation about her health and wellness, she’s made headlines for a striking 30-pound weight loss, dropping from 155 to around 125 pounds by July 2025. According to a deep dive by Northwestern University, this transformation wasn’t from crash diets or shortcuts, but the result of steady lifestyle changes and a determination to overcome the side effects of her lupus medication which had led to visible weight gain and impacted her emotional well-being. After debuting her new figure at February’s SAG Awards, she insisted it was about water, walks, and setting boundaries, not Ozempic or surgery. By March, she was candid on a podcast, saying she stopped trying to be her old self and focused on becoming “the healed version” of who she is today.
Social media blew up again this week when Selena surfaced in Malibu for a star-studded Rare Beauty event on July 9. Photos show her glowing, surrounded by influencers and fans, all celebrating her latest business milestone. Just days prior, headlines exploded as multiple outlets, including AOL, reported she had officially reached billionaire status—driven largely by Rare Beauty, her blockbuster cosmetics brand founded in 2020. With annual sales soaring past $60 million and a Rare Impact Fund raising millions for mental health, Selena’s entrepreneurial rise is now seen as one of the defining stories in the beauty industry. She celebrated the news quietly, posting a chill selfie from bed to her Instagram story, a move that only fueled the buzz.
Her business empire doesn’t stop at makeup. YouTube profiles and financial analysts highlight her lucrative licensing deals with brands like Louis Vuitton, Coach, and Puma, as well as a real estate portfolio and ongoing earnings from her music, streaming, and Emmy-nominated role in Only Murders in the Building.
And of course, the internet can’t stop speculating about her personal life. Benny Blanco, her fiancé since December 2024, just went public on the Therapuss with Jake Shane podcast, admitting they haven’t started wedding planning yet because work has been nonstop. The couple, who collaborated on an album earlier this year, say they’ll finally sit down to plan their “chill” wedding this summer. Social media keeps fueling rumors, but Benny says they’re just excited and want something intimate.
Last but not least, Selena made a playful pop culture moment out of showing her fiancé old episodes of Wizards of Waverly Place, after he confessed on the latest podcast that he’d never watched the show that launched her career until they started dating. For longtime fans, it’s just another reminder that Selena continues to blend superstar status with genuine relatability, making news with every move and milestone.
