Selena Gomez has spoken out for the first time about being diagnosed with the autoimmune disease lupus. In a candid interview with Billboard ahead of the Friday release of her second solo studio album Revival, the singer, 23, revealed she has undergone chemotherapy treatment to alleviate the symptoms of lupus.
'That’s what my break was really about. I could’ve had a stroke,' Gomez said of her time spent out of the spotlight after cancelling the Australian and Asian leg of her tour in December 2013.
Internet speculation was rife about the reasons she bailed out of the concerts and while some sources claimed at that time she had lupus, others suggested she had issues with addiction.
'I wanted so badly to say, "You guys have no idea. I’m in chemotherapy. You’re a**holes",' she told Billboard.
'I locked myself away until I was confident and comfortable again,' she added.
