Many of Gomez’s fans defended her, as did rapper Flavor Flav, who posted on X, external: “Team Selena Gomez. Again. That woman is always so brave to share her truth, and so many are quick to bully her.”
But others, including Trump-supporting TV host Megyn Kelly, were not impressed.
“She deleted it after her fans taught her that the majority of the country stands behind these policies, but I’m sure she was shocked to get any blowback whatsoever,” she said on Monday’s episode of The Megyn Kelly Show.
Gomez hails from Texas and has more than 400 million Instagram followers.
In 2019, she fronted a Netflix documentary series called Living Undocumented, which followed eight immigrant families in the US.
She currently stars in hit Disney TV series Only Murders in the Building, and recently received a Bafta nomination for her role in musical film Emilia Perez, which leads this year’s Oscar race.
