Selena Gomez has reportedly lost over 700,000 Instagram followers after posting a video responding to Donald Trump’s new executive orders.
President Trump has certainly divided opinion with some amendments he’s made to the way the US is run since taking office nearly two weeks ago.
The 47th president has already made changes to immigration laws, while also renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, just to name a few.
Singer Selena Gomez appeared to be upset by the new executive orders, as she shared a video of herself crying online last month.
Trump signed an executive order that is suspected to impact and deport millions, and Gomez said she was fearful for these people.
Appearing emotional, the 32-year-old said: “I’m so sorry. All my people are getting attacked. The children, I don’t understand. I wish I could do something but I can’t. I don’t know what to do. I’ll try everything, I promise.”
The actor deleted the video not long after, adding in a follow-up message: “Apparently it’s not okay to show empathy for people.”
CritiqueJeu looked into Gomez’s social media accounts recently and found the star had reportedly lost over 700,000 Instagram followers in the last 30 days.
As per the Daily Mail, Paul Lenglet, co-founder and editor of CritiqueJeu, said: “Selena Gomez had a great end to 2024, but the start of 2025 has not been so gentle on her.
“The star has been facing many criticisms over her participation and performance on Emilia Pérez, a film directed and filmed in Paris, but with a story that takes place in Mexico.”
