Selena Gomez received harsh remarks about her recent appearance
Selena was present at the Emmys due to her nomination for Only Murders in the Bulding. But more than her nomination, it was her changed look. The 34-year-old's appearance left many viewers wondering if she got another procedure done on her face. Despite no confirmation regarding her cosmetic surgery, the internet has been sharing their unfiltered opinion on Selena's changed look.

Selena was dressed up in a strapless gold chainmail Louis Vuitton gown, which beautifully hugged her figure and it had a soft mermaid-style skirt. The outfit had long pieces of chainmail that were arranged in a spiraling pattern around the waist. She styled her look with Tiffany & Co. jewelery. Her danglers added more charm to her look.
However, fans couldn't resist pointing out Selena's changed appearance from her 2025 Emmys look as she had worn a tomato-red column gown with a high neckline and flowing train. A post surfaced on the internet, wherein Selena was posing for the photographers before attending the ceremony.
One user on social media bluntly pointed at her changed features and wrote, "She's so botched wtf." Another user compared Selena's changed look to 60 years old Madonna and stated that this is what fillers and botox do to young faces, and wrote, "Looking like 60 years old Madonna in your early 30s is insane, that's why you shouldn't do fillers and botox kids."
The comments speculated if Selena had undergone fillers or botox, although neither Selena Gomez nor her team had talked about the matter so far. A third user pointed ut, "New definition of crazy eyes. She looks awful. Why did she do this to herself?"
A fourth netizen commented, "I feel like her plastic surgery is more because of her chronic illness. I think she got it trying to make herself look more normal and more Hollywood because her face was having like tremors and different types of issues. The Botox makes them stop."
