Selena Gomez is “Very Proud” of Demi Lovato for Beating Eating Disorder

Selena Gomez has praised her close friend Demi Lovato for pulling through following an eating disorder struggle and other issues. She also reveals that she admires Demi for the way she handled herself and for even helping others who now find themselves in a similar position who need the same kind of help:

”I’m very proud of Demi and her being able to accept the challenges she went through, but also for staying a good role model to people who do struggle with the things that she’s gone through.”

Speaking on her tight-knit group of friends, Selena says that she feels keeping those who she can trust nearby is very important to her. She also reveals that she often feels frustrated by how the media treat her sometimes and believes she is truly a “normal girl” with a “normal life” who doesn’t want different treatment:

”I’ve always been taught that you are who you surround yourself with. So if you surround yourself with good positive people you can only do good things for them and they can only do good things for you.  It is frustrating at times when certain things are being said, but other than that I’m just a normal girl living a normal life.”
