ICYMI, Selena Gomez shocked fans when she took to Instagram on Thursday to explain that she had a very good reason for laying low all summer: she was recovering from a kidney transplant due to complications from her Lupus. Of course, her fans and other celebs have been nothing but supportive.
Even Lady Gaga, who is also facing some health challenges herself as she struggles with fibromyalgia (a chronic illness that causes pain and fatigue), showed her support for Selena with the sweetest tweet.
Prayers & love to @selenagomez you are a warrior princess. What an inspiration.

“Prayers & love to @selenagomez you are a warrior princess. What an inspiration,” Gaga’s tweet read. Aww.Â
Gaga wasn’t the only one, either. Kesha reached out in support of both women after Lady Gaga was forced to cancel a concert after her fibromyalgia caused her to be hospitalized.
My heart is with @selenagomez & @ladygaga today. pic.twitter.com/43KPGftJkw

It’s so amazing to see our favorite celeb girl bosses offering each other encouragement during difficult times. Meanwhile, Selena Gomez is continuing to spread the love by making people aware of her condition and encouraging them to donate — E! News reports that her efforts have raised nearly $500,000 for the Lupus Research Alliance.
