Selena Gomez literally wore mean comments people left on her Instagram photos in her hair at NYFW
Selena Gomez is a red carpet veteran, with a pretty plethora of looks to please our celeb beauty-obsessed eye.
But proving she's not just a pretty face, Selena has absolutely no qualms discussing beauty standards and how she deals with cruel trolls.
In March, she took to Instagram to say: "The beauty myth - an obsession with physical perfection that traps modern women in an endless cycle of hopelessness, self consciousness, and self-hatred as she tries to fulfil society’s impossible definition of flawless beauty. I chose to take care of myself because I want to, not to prove anything to anyone. Wind in her sails."
Wise words, Sel.
The post came after designer, Stefano Gabbanna, cruelly dubbed the singer 'so ugly'.
Not one to take criticism lying down, Selena graced New York Fashion Week donning an 'Ugly' hair accessory - and we have so much time for it.
Never change, Selena.
See her transformation from Disney princess to teenage dream and, finally, fully-fledged Hollywood glamour-puss.

2007
Cute as a button, a 14-year-old Selena Gomez hits her first red carpet after signing on to star in Disney’s Wizards of Waverley Place. The movie drew the world’s press to compare her to Miley Cyrus but, with her simple, glossy hair and barely-there make-up – just a slick of nude gloss, in fact – we don't think there was anyone comparable to the star.

2008
At the premiere of her alleged rival Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana’s tour movie in LA, Selena went ‘all out’ with look-at-me hair extensions – in bright red, no less. -
2008
Still wearing her raven locks long and straight, Selena adds a choppy fringe to her tresses. This girl looks good however she wears her hair, but we prefer her with soft, natural waves. -
2008
Wow! Could Selena look any more grown-up and glamorous? This ‘undone’ side bun, with loosely curled tendrils and sweeping fringe, is red carpet perfection, while the subtly-smoky eyes tick all the right beauty boxes. -
2008
At the Teen Vogue Young Hollywood Party in LA, she proved that corkscrew curls can work, providing your hair has the health and vitality to pull them off - á la Selena, whose super-glossy raven mane is so Vogue. -
2008
Fancy finding her style feet so young? Selena, we salute you. The body-beautiful side pony and dramatic, Cleopatra-esque eyes are winning. -
2008
Another day, another ‘do. Still only 16 but fast becoming one to watch, Selena used the CNN Heroes All-Star Tribute bash in LA to showcase her new peek-a-boo fringe and shoulder-grazing bob. -
2008
The feline flicks with the liner are cute, as is the haphazard up-do. We love Selena's glossy nude pout, too. -
2009
Ummm… wow? Selena had often expressed her desire to try out different hair hues before she stepped out with this shock-tastic platinum look in 2009. However, we can confirm – in case you were in any doubt – that it is a WIG. A favourite wig of Selena’s, no less. The starlet sported it out a few times that year, even using it in photo-shoots and dedicating a song to it - As A Blonde – on her debut album Kiss & Tell. -
2009
Playing it safe with a little lipgloss and a coating of mascara. We were going mad with the blue eyeshadow at Selena’s age, but not our Sel, she keeps it sleek and chic with a side-swept bob. -
2009
Selena’s look ‘grew up’, so to speak, at the 2009 American Music Awards. This raven, úber-curly, body-beautiful bob; almost-ethereal skin and bubblegum pink pout really are show-stopping. -
2009
Grown-up and glamorous; Selena’s elegant ‘undone’ up-do with glossy corkscrew curls at the Snowflake Ball in LA certainly made her the belle of this ball. -
2009
Wow – easily our favourite Selena look to date! The starlet flaunted her beauty credentials at the Hollywood Style Awards and, with her úber-glossy up-do and look-at-me red lips, she guaranteed plenty of column inches for all the right reasons. -
2010
A super-cute braid was the ‘do du jour for Selena’s spin on the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards red carpet. The bubblegum-pink gloss and rosy blush finished off the style. And just LOOK at that flawless complexion?! Selena is clearly NOT your average teenager. We’d bet our Balenciaga that skin has never seen a breakout. -
2010
Simple, yet effective: every fashionista worth her style salt knows that subtly-smoky eyes and pillar-box red lips is the fast-track route to ‘glam’, and so Selena adopted this fail-safe formula for the premiere of Ramona and Beezus, her big screen debut. -
2010
In a beauty U-turn, Selena worked creamy skin, midnight blue shadowed-eyes and a glossy nude lip for the MTV VMAs in 2010 – and we liked it. What’s more, we liked the lengthy side-pony, too. -
2011
Pulling out all the style stops for the premiere of then-beau, Justin Bieber’s pop-umentary Never Say Never, in LA, Selena rocked these corkscrew curls. Note the twisted-in chocolate-brown streaks? We approve. And we approve of the shimmering lilac eyeshadow and pop of lavender on the lips, too. -
2011
Hmmmm. The feline-esque eyes are edgy enough, sure, but the hair. Oh, so much hair. But then, Sel was filming the music video for her single, Love You Like A Love Song, so maybe the theme was ‘rock mermaid’? No? Ok then… -
2011
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it – and so Selena rocked the glossy waves, lashings of lashes and red lips once more at the Disney HD Channel launch party in London. -

2013
The ultra-long lashes and rose-petal pink pout are winning, and those heavy, side-swept tresses would look at home on a mermaid. It’s nice to see the American beauty having a little fun with her look. -
