In an interview with Rolling Stone, Selena revealed that she struggled to make friends with people in the entertainment industry. \u201cI never fit in with a cool group of girls that were celebrities,\u201d she told the outlet. \u201cMy only friend in the industry really is Taylor [Swift], so I remember feeling like I didn\u2019t belong.\u201d Soon enough, fans started speculating that the singer\u2019s comments were a dig against her friend and kidney donor Francia Raisa. In response, Francia reportedly commented \u201cInteresting\u201d on an E! News Instagram post that highlighted Selena\u2019s remark about Taylor being her \u201conly friend in the industry.\u201d She has since deleted the comment, however, fans also noticed that Francia doesn\u2019t follow Selena on Instagram anymore. Selena Gomez responds following Francia\u2019s reaction Following Francia\u2018s reaction, Selena responded to the situation, by commenting on a viral TikTok video that highlighted the issue. \u201cSorry I didn\u2019t mention every person I know,\u201d she wrote in the comments of content creator Stephanie Tleiji (stephwithdadeets)\u2019s video explaining the perceived drama. Despite her apology, many viewers still expressed their disappointment with Selena, criticizing her for not \u201cacknowledging\u201d her donor, and claiming she pressured her friend into donating her kidney. Francia and Selena have been friends for nearly 15 years, and the actress donated her kidney to the singer in 2017, after she needed a transplant due to her battle with lupus. In 2021, Francia posted about the process of kidney donation on her Twitter, and in an Instagram post, though the latter has been deleted. Although Selena spoke about receiving a kidney in the Rolling Stone interview, she made no mention of Francia being her donor, which sparked feuding rumors between the two.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Selena Gomez responds on TikTok after kidney donor Francia Raisa seemingly shades her TIKTOK: selenagomez\/INSTAGRAM: selenagomezSelena Gomez took to TikTok to defend herself, following her kidney donor Francia Raisa\u2019s comment about Taylor Swift being her only friend in the industry.
