Selena Gomez Confirms Kidney Transplant

Selena Gomez just revealed that she had a kidney transplant this year and the kidney was donated by her friend, Francia Raisa.

"I'm very aware some of my fans had noticed I was laying low for part of the summer and questioning why I wasn't promoting my new music, which I was extremely proud of.

She continued, "I honestly look forward to sharing with you, soon my journey through these past several months as I have always wanted to do with you. Until then I want to publicly thank my family and incredible team of doctors for everything they have done for me prior to and post-surgery."

"If you didn't know, Lupus is a "chronic inflammatory disease that occurs when your body's immune system attacks your own tissues and organs," the Mayo Clinic reports.
