On Friday, Selena Gomez sat down for a new interview with Ryan Seacrest, and she got real about all the people who so harshly judged her for gaining weight. The incident in question goes back to April, when Selena was spotted in her bikini while on vacation in Mexico. To combat the subsequent speculation about her weight gain, she posted a photo on Instagram along with the caption, "I love being happy with me yall #theresmoretolove." Selena discussed the moment in her interview, saying: "The reason why I did that is because I didn't want them to win. 'Cause then, the next day, it wasn't about how I gained weight. It was about how I embraced it. And that's just kind of my approach." Watch the video above to hear everything she said about the ordeal.
