Selena Gomez Blames Junk Food for Recent Hospitalization

By Christo Varghese Posted Jun 16th 2011 04:10AM

Selena Gomez is blaming her love for junk food and sweets for her recent hospitalization.

Gomez was rushed to the hospital last week after an appearance on 'The Tonight Show' and she later revealed that malnourishment was the main cause of her being ill. "I was just very malnourished, so I was low on iron and exhausted," she said.

A Gomez insider also told PopEater's own Rob Shuter that it was her intense work schedule that was also to blame for her hospitalization.

PEOPLE is reporting that on Thursday the 19-year-old singer and actress was on Kidd Kraddick's radio show in Texas where she revealed it was an overload of junk food that caused the malnourishment.

Gomez said, "I do eat. The problem is I don't eat right. I love everything that's possibly not good for me."

Gomez also revealed that her mom, Mandy Teefey, is doing everything possible to keep her healthy, saying "She's definitely shoving vitamins down my mouth and following me around."

However, Gomez admits that she is the main culprit for her bad food choice. "But at the same time, I was a stubborn kid, so I got to eat whatever I wanted. I have to have creamed spinach or cheese on my broccoli. I have to have something that makes it not healthy."

She also reveals her favorite guilty pleasures, "I love M&Ms, Kit Kats, Snickers and Goobers at the movies."

Gomez reveals that she is a lot better now and well on her road to recovery, thanks to her mom, "I'm good now, thank you. I'm so much better."

You are a moron

I read on another site the real reason she was hospitalized twice was for having an abortion. And don't get mad at me - I am just saying what I read elsewhere (on Crazy Days and Nights).

This smells like liberal M. Obama followers agenda, once again trying and lying to make us eat how they want us too. Cheese on broccoli or creamed spinach never hurt anybody. I think m&m's and goobers were her only diet.

Is she a doctor? Next time she can skip the hospital and diagnose herself.

I may be a lot lot older than Selena, but would advise her to cut wayy back on all junkfoods. Steamed brocolli, and all vegetables, taste so good with a touch of butter :)

She is prettier, in the face, and has a strikingly more beautiful body than say Miley Cyrus. But, if she truly desires to have such beauty...it requires to feed it not junk food, but real healthy natural foods. Wishing you a happier and healthier future life Selena Gomez from the great place of Grand Prairie, Texas!
