Singer-actress Selena Gomez was caught under fire after hitting the headlines for substance abuse. Sources reveal that Selena Gomez is using her illness as an excuse to bail on her concerts when in fact she is undergoing substance abuse rehabilitation.
A source opened up about Selena Gomez's health status where it was mentioned that she would always blame her Lupus to get herself off the hook. Lupus is a chronic auto immune disease that can severely damage a person's body parts such as the joints, internal organs, and even the skin.
The source told Radar Online that one of the factors that influenced Selena Gomez's drug abuse was the death of one of her closest friends, Christina Grimmie. The "Voice" finalist was fatally shot during one of her concerts by an obsessed fan.
"It is terrible that she has Lupus but she is using this as an excuse for everything lately and the truth is that she is just a mess right now," the source told Radar Online. "She has been feeling completely alone lately. Everyone close to her is worried because she seems to be back to old behavior,"
The source also added that Selena Gomez was eventually sent to rehab after she started popping pills non-stop. Selena Gomez reportedly consumed deadly drug infused cocktail which includes Lunesta, Ambien, Klonopin and Xanax.
Selena Gomez originally mentioned that she's taking a break from her concerts as she needs to take care of herself after going through complications brought to her by Lupus. Though it may seem believable, a source cleared out that Selena Gomez as actually sent to rehab after her loved ones intervene and decided to help her with her pill popping addiction.
Earlier this month, Parent Herald also released a report where it was mentioned that Selena Gomez canceled her appearance on the Global Citizen Festival 2016. Demi Lovato then confirmed Selena Gomez's absence as Lovato will be the one to replace her on the said performance.
