Vintage Selena snacking on her “abnormal” favorite combo: Reeses and pickles
When news broke last week that Selena Gomez‘s health scare that resulted in her being rushed to the hospital was because of “malnutrition,” fans were worried about her health.
Have no fear Selena fans! She admits it’s her guilty pleasures that made her sick.
Here’s what she told a Texas radio station about her eating habits:
“I do eat. The problem is I don’t eat right. I love everything that’s possibly not good for me. I love M&M’s, Kit Kat, Snickers, Goobers…” She also admitted that she “[hung] out at KFC a lot” while filming her latest flick, Monte Carlo.
A celeb who admits to loving and eating junk food…gotta love it!
Lovelies what are some of your favorite weird snack combos?

It’d be pretty crazy to be sent to the hospital for that… I know a lot of people who eat pretty unhealthily, but to that extent, dayum gurl.

I wanna know where she puts it all LOL she’s so tiny!! At least she can recognize her problem though and start getting help for it

@annamariuhh@xanga - I have a cousin that was hospitalized for drinking too much soda. The acid was doing a work on her stomach. I may have been in middle school at the time, and she’s 4-1/2 years younger than me!
guest
Why are we praising her again for trying to kill herself with junk food? Are you fucking insane?
guest
hmm…she eats so much junk food, yet she’s stick thin….totally makes sense selena
guest
“A celeb who admits to loving and eating junk food…gotta love it!”
Gotta love WHAT? That her diet is so poor she had to go to the hospital?This is every bit as bad as starving yourself or gorging to the point that you’re obese in terms of self control and taking care of yourself.
Something to PRAISE would be a celeb that admits to indulging a bit, but still keeping their diet under control. Not someone who eats themselves into the hospital.
guest
she’s probably anorexic.
guest
Guys, calm down. She’s young, she doesn’t know how to eat healthy. Especially with the schedule that she has, I bet it’s hard. An article says her mom is trying to help by giving her vitamins, but she’s still practically a kid! What teen doesn’t hang out and eat junk food with their friends. Her hospitalization was ridiculous in the first place. Having a headache, and light headedness? Take a tylenol and a nap, you’ll be good in a few hours.
guest
@Ashley Nicole Anders@facebook - agreed, in high school i exercised alot and ate crap.. if i had right id be machine.. now i got no time for exercise and im trying to eat right!!
guest
@six6vi@xanga - I’ve went to a nutrionist, that is no excuse for eating healthy either. It didn’t help me. You just have an incapability of seeing that other people struggle. Just because they are famous DOESN’T mean they are perfect. Everyone has flaws. Plus, its not like she is doing any of that for attention, you people, the people writing these blogs, and the people reporting about it are the ones bringing attention to it. Let her be.

haaa i remembe freshmen year of college, i was so excited that there was a chick fil a in the food court.
i blew so many points/money there, i ate there for the first four weeks literally EVERYmeal, beakfast lunch dinner. every isngle freaking one haha
i didn’t gain weight, but i ended up throwing up soooo badly after the four weeks. My stomach just could not take it anymore, i threw up for an entire day lesson learned. don’t OD on junk and fried food =\
though lesson only learned for a few months.
sad. =\
so yes it is possible to go to the hospital for bad dieting if you do it constantly
guest
I think it is so sad that someone could eat enough junk food to make them so sick that they have to be put in the hospital.
guest
I eat more junk food then her, but I also am probably twice her size. who is she anyways? Never heard of her. Still, it’s nice to know a child likes the same thing most children do. But if it’s making her have to go to the hospital, then she may need to make some adjustments.
guest
@sassypenguin@xanga - How did *I* bring attention to it exactly? I didn’t write the post nor know anything about her other than she dates a teenage blonde girl and now this. So explain to me just how it was *me* that brought attention to the fact that she was in the hospital when I JUST learned that.
And just because a nutritionist didn’t work for you doesn’t mean it can’t work for her. And just because she’s struggling that doesn’t mean it’s because she’s young; THAT is the point. YOU clearly are the one with no comprehension of how struggling actually works.

@raspbxrrryjam@xanga - I agree. You know it is bad when that happens…
guest
she probably have a lot of stress… and like no time to really properly eat well. always with bieber doing other stuff than eating & movies & singing.
glad she is okay.
guest
@six6vi@xanga - You brought attention to her by commenting negatively.
YOU said being young wasn’t an excuse. You implied she should be eating healthy – maybe its not that simple? She could be struggling trying to eat healthy. I didn’t say it was because she was young I simply said you didn’t understand that someone like her – a celebrity – could have struggles with what they eat.
guest
@CecilliaMarie@xanga - She’s still a kid, and she works a lot which means shes being pretty active even if it doesn’t really look like it. Also we have no real clue what her private life is like, whether she exercises, or just sits around eating candy. When she gets into her twenties it’ll probably be a lot harder because her body will slow down her naturally high metabolism rate. Then she’s gonna have issues storing it hehe.
Anyway I’d have to agree it’s better to hear that she went in cuz she was eating bad rather than not eating at all. It’s a lot easier to turn around eating junk food once you get sick than it is to stop being anorexic or bulimic because you feel like you need to be.
guest
she gets praise for unhealthy eating habits?
now she will know better, and hopefully she will be healthier. but this post is idiotic.
guest
There seems to be an upbeat tone to this article, like: “Selena Gomez suffers malnutrition. Teeheehee, oh you!” Sorry, but that is batshit insane. Do we not care for our health any more, so much so that we can make light of it? Same could be said for obesity and the like.
guest
@six6vi@xanga - People like you are the reason why the world fucking blows. You can’t have an actual discussion without name calling and acting like a twelve year old. If you actually wanted to have a discussion when you replied to my comment you should have acted like an adult. Not resorted to swearing and name calling. That is ridiculously immature.
Plus, my original comment wasn’t to you. It was just to say that hey, like most teenagers, she doesn’t eat healthy. She’ll figure it out. Don’t rag on her for acting like a normal teenager.
guest
Ummm, I think that’s weird. She must eat AWFUL x10 to go to the hospital for eating poorly.

@annamariuhh@xanga - Actually I had to go to the hospital once after drinking and eating too many things with lemon/lime juice in it. The acid killed my insides.

damn i didn’t realize that this post was going to create this much damn controversary but then again this is Xanga and anything goes. everyone who is complaining and bitching about the writer of this post ” praising her for her unhealthy eating habits” can seriously go choke on a dick. good grief that was not the intent of this post. the question was ” what weird food combo’s do you like?” but yet i see very few people actually answering the question, instead you’re sitting here bashing the author as if she was shoving the food down Selena’s face. good lord, i’m glad that she’s ohkay and hopefully she will learn from this experience but my God you all don’t have to be such assholes. i don’t think that eating shitty was the sole reason for her hospital stay. I’m sure that it was a combination of things, one of which was her poor eating habits.
magnolia / 1369 posts
to the answer the original question – i think that cheese makes almost everything better . so i put cheese on a lot of random things although it may look weird or unappealing it’s delicious . don’t try it before you knock it =]
guest
@six6vi@xanga - I only name call when people do it first. I deleted the comment because I knew there was no getting through to you because you are stubborn and just felt like attacking a random person tonight.
I mean, I don’t understand why you would say that entire last part of your comment when you were the one complaining about a celebrity. You were so high up on yourself that you thought just because you don’t struggle staying healthy, that a celebrity shouldn’t struggle either. Thats putting your pussy up on a pedastal. Is that all you do? Sit around calling people dumb cunts because they think people shouldn’t judge teen celebs so harshly? Then maybe you need a long hard look at yourself.

@six6vi@xanga - do you ever have anything nice to say?
guest
@hyokyung - On occasion, depends on who I’m talking to.
guest
@hyokyung - apparently not if she’s talking to a “dumb cunt”
guest
so that was the “real” reason? Sure it was, we will all believe that. Not…
guest
@six6vi@xanga - Its not hypocritical because I don’t like when people START name calling. If someone name calls first then it is okay to reply with a name call. That is why I did not start name calling. It would only be hypocritical if I had started the name calling, actually. And in no way does it make me a bitch because I was completely civil to you until you started being blatantly rude.
Your last sentence doesn’t even apply. No where in that was I being a “dumb cunt”. Read it again if you are unsure. Again, I was trying to make you realize that we are all equal and we all have struggles, and you don’t know if healthy eating is her struggle. Honestly, you can call me a dumb cunt all you want because I think people can see that you are the one getting all hot and bothered over nothing.
guest
@sassypenguin@xanga - “apparently not if she’s talking to a “dumb cunt”
”
Correct.
guest
@six6vi@xanga - I’ve always heard the term “hot and bothered” for someone getting angry. Because you tend to get overheated, and you are bothered.
“Actually it’s called hypocrisy if you do anything contradictory to what you said. ” Exactly, I said, “ I don’t like when people START name calling” – which I did not do so I was not being a hypocrite.
I’m sorry you don’t understand my arguments. I’ve formulated them with perfect logical for you.
guest
@six6vi@xanga - There was no name calling in that? I said you were twelve, I didn’t not call you a bitch/cunt/whore. I said you were immature. That is not names those are statements.
Rude people piss me off, it is only natural to be angry with you for a small time. Now I just find it funny that you keep calling me a cunt. How is that even a legitimate saying. Ohhhh I’m a vaginaaa. So what?
guest
@sassypenguin@xanga - So I should take a screen shot of what you originally said? Alright.
https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-zO7LAO_UQXQ/TfrYvTXFaWI/AAAAAAAAACM/2e7PVk9KYgo/proof.png
Hypocrite.
By the way, you’re especially a dumb cunt now. Tsk, tsk. How embarrassing for you.
guest
@hyokyung - Believe it or not, bouncing around on my site 12 times for no reason is a bit stalkerish.
guest
@six6vi@xanga - Like I said, that came AFTER you started name calling and I DON’T LIKE WHEN PEOPLE
START
NAME CALLING. Here for the world to see : I CALLED HER A SELF-RIGHTEOUS BITCH because
she had starting
all the dumb cunt bull shit.
do I have to say it again? : ”If someone name calls first then it is okay to reply with a name call. That is why I did not start name calling.” your comment had name calling before the self-righteous bitch one. So you are making yourself look dumber because I’m telling you I don’t like when people START name calling. I did not start it -therefore not hypocritical. Get it now?
guest
@sassypenguin@xanga - What part of “timing is irrelevant” did you not understand? Do you not know the meaning of hypocrisy? LOL You said name calling was a sign of immaturity, not name calling at this hour given someone else did this, that, and the other thing. Or is this basic concept too hard for you to comprehend? You contradicted yourself, therefore you’re a hypocrite. It really isn’t that hard.
Get over it, you were caught in your own logical failure lol God you’re a sad, sad little fail cunt.
guest
hahaha, oh Selena. I’m glad she’s okay and that she improves her eating habits now that she knows how detrimental they can be to her health.
@six6vi@xanga - I don’t want to get involved because I know you’ll probably just respond by cussing, but I feel the need to defend her. I’m pretty sure that any human being would feel the need to defend themselves after being called a cunt, bitch, etc. several times. it’s part of our fight-or-flight response. it doesn’t make her a hypocrite, and the fact that she deleted the comment after she realized it was wrong of her to say that shows that she is in fact mature.
daffodil / 1615 posts
@hyokyung - You know I was just thinking that myself…
Now, everyone has a guilty snack pleasure, so Selena isn’t some freak of nature for wanting junk food. She is also a teenager and still has that amazing metabolism, so right now she is probably under the impression that she can eat whatever she wants and that’s fine, however it will (and already has) come back to bite her in the ass. From what I’ve read, she sounds like she does know she should eat better, but when you’re on the road and potentially NOT eating nice, home-cooked meals every night, it’s probably a lot easier to hit up the closest KFC rather than go to a restaurant, especially if there are time-constraints with your schedule.
Long story short, I’m hoping this hospitalization will come as a wake-up call not only to her but to everyone else who realizes that they aren’t eating the most healthy foods on a regular basis, so that they can work on incorporating healthier foods into diets and not wind up hospitalized.
guest
@ivarahBharavi@xanga - No, it really doesn’t.
guest
@six6vi@xanga - timing is relevant to me. sorry you disagree.
guest
@sassypenguin@xanga - Sure thing hypocrite.

@six6vi@xanga - mmhmm=D

@six6vi@xanga - Anger issue much? Lmfao

I had ice cold orange juice and almost immediately had a fierce stomache ache and proceeded to diarrhea
it wasn’t the orange juice though but any drinks that are too cold and have been previously put into the freezer for like 20 minutes, then consumed quickly, causes my stomache to react as if I just injested toxins because of the freezing drink
the weather was very hot, so I just gulped the ice cold drink down and then chaotic explosions ensued in the toilet
I like reese’s, too, but not combined with pickles.
guest
@turnyalightsdownlow@xanga - i’d like to think that the intent of this post was to discuss “the real reason why selena gomez was hospitalized.” because it’s the title and all. the question at the end is some senseless deus ex machina that attempts to steer the reader away from all that is wrong with this post.
what i cannot stand is all the hypocrisy on this site which makes it seem like conscientious eating is so terrible (has so-and-so been dieting? is she too skinny?! she needs a cheeseburger!) while lauding something equally unhealthy. more unhealthy, i would say, if it were true that poor eating habits landed this poor girl in the hospital.
guest
@P0RCELA1N_D0LL@xanga - I’ve heard of that problem before! How strange. And inconvenient when its warm and cold drink would be so nice. So like, no ice cream drinks right? No smoothies or anything? If so, I feel so bad for you:(
guest
@sassypenguin@xanga - it tends to happen when I gulp down the ice cold drink too fast like the entire cup in 15 seconds:D I realized what caused the problem, so I gradually take sips of the cold drink now
guest
@P0RCELA1N_D0LL@xanga - good! I’ve definitely heard of that before and I think its kind of rare so its weird that I’ve heard of it. Glad you know how to control it:)
guest
The girl is 18 years old, and while she may still be young, 18 is old enough to have some kind of knowledge about the effects of bad nutrition. Of course, hopefully this trip to the hospital will make her more conscious of how she takes care of herself.
daisy / 639 posts
@P0RCELA1N_D0LL@xanga - That is so weird! I’m taking a nutrition class right now which includes how everything in the body reacts and works to what gets put inside it, and I honestly had no idea anything like that could happen!
And everyone else, just stop talking. No one cares about your little argument and dramatic name-calling, you aren’t in middle school anymore so get off this site if all you are ever going to do is call each other pathetic names. Every time I see an abnormally high amount of comments I know exactly who is commenting and I use up a good 5 minutes of my time loling at how dumb people are.
ANYWAYS, ON TOPIC, a rarity amongst some of us, my theory is that Selena actually was hospitalized for malnutrition, but she didn’t want to send that message out to her younger fans… I know saying that she eats an abnormally high amount of junk food isn’t good either, but maybe she’s trying to do some reverse psychology type thing where if she had been hospitalized for it…people wouldn’t eat anymore junk food?
guest
how come she isn’t fat huh?! HUH?!

You know, I’ve noticed in just about every interview with a celebrity I read in a magazine, they confide in the interviewer about their guilty pleasures and “bad” eating habits. And then, the interviewer gushes about them wolfing something down, or dramatically denying themselves… it’s all a ploy, to make them seem more accessible and make us like them more. It’s an ad campaign.

Lovelyish, you never fail to astonish me with how horribly you choose points in articles to make important. “Let’s not talk about how unhealthy it is to eat so much crap that you have to go to the hospital for treatment, let’s talk about your favorite weird food combos!” Great job at continually, and consistently, making girls more unintelligent.
guest
haha, she’s not the only one who loves eating junkfood!
guest
Hmmm……there’s something missing……
guest
I honestly don’t believe it…unless all she ate that day was a snickers or an M&M.
guest
she was HOSPITALIZED for her eating habits – we should NOT love it, regardless of if it’s a celery diet that made her ill or a chocolate diet! fucked up. i hope she meets with a nutritionist and learns how to incorporate the foods she loves in with healthier meals so that she never has to go through this again, poor girl.
guest
@Ashley Nicole Anders@facebook - Thats true.. When she gets older though she would probably have a harder time at keeping that thin when eating alot.. I was like that and now that I am 21 and completely done growing, its definitly alot harder losing weight!
guest
we are always praising selena gomez cuz she is selena gomez. ugh.
its really not that hard to eat healthy.
guest
What a baby. I eat junk constantly but I’ve never been hospitalized for it.

@betterdesigned@xanga - …it’s LOVELYISH’s job to make girls more intelligent? wow, I did not know this.
While I don’t think unhealthy eating is right, I don’t think we as a society should be OBSESSED with health and everything. It IS okay to indulge every once in a while. Also, even celebrities that seem perfect – such as selena gomez – make mistakes.
I, for one, liked this post. I think it says that indulgence is okay, but too much can be very detrimental. Yaknow?
Credz to Selena for not bullshitting us like she’s perfect. She’s a very busy girl, and I know how crappy I eat when I’m on the go!

@ShimmerBodyCream@xanga - more likely bulimic.
guest
she probably just didn’t eat enough wholesome meals one or two days and just lived off junk food while rehearsing or some shit and got weak and/or dizzy and had to be hospitalized for a recovery.
it’s not unheard of, people. i’ve def put myself in that position before where i was just so busy i didn’t have time to eat, and then i would feel faint… it’s called hypoglycemia and dehydration and malnutrition. but it doesn’t necessarily have to be a true health issue. a nice, good, wholesome meal or two and some bed rest later, and you’ll be fine.

I love reese’s and orange juice. My weirdest snack obsession tho is chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream with cool ranch doritos. Its like AMAZING!!! Thankfully that combination doesn’t make you sick. Unfortunately though, it DOES make you Fat. LOL
