I completely agree. Aside from the actual content of the doc, it was just badly made I think. The little snippets of her in what seemed to be a photo shoot and had, I think, her speaking diary entries seemed so manufactured

the documentary was boring and revealed nothing new or interesting about her in my opinion.
at the end of the day she is a celebrity and rich, she will never be relatable, she is surrounded by people who cater to her every need and will always be able to afford the best possible healthcare and therapist. I don’t think she’s necessarily a bad person and probably can’t help it, but the whole thing just left a bad taste in my mouth because it came off a bit virtue signally esp. in the Kenya parts. she also comes off incredibly self absorbed. but then again I don’t think she can help that because she is worshipped by her fans and surrounded by people who would never say no to her.
if anything, the documentary made me realise that I have no interest in celebrities’ lives anymore. it can be interesting in terms of “watch how rich and famous people live their lives” but ultimately it’s nothing but depressing for the average viewer. they will never be normal people and normal people will never be like them. if you are poor and unimportant, nobody really cares about you or your mental health. Selena is out of touch and extremely privileged and never even seemed to acknowledge that

Considering she gave you a bleeping kidney and risked her future health for you you better be mentioning her! twit.
Her fans trying to justify that she was only talking about the music industry doesn’t even make sense because she’s still good friends with Camila Cabello.
This documentary and its promo is turning in to a PR nightmare.
I did post above that it was only meant to apply to the music industry but the article I had read that said that was misquoting the original Rolling Stone comments so apologies for that!
This, and off the top of my head Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo, Camilla and Miley Cyrus attended Selena’s 30th not long ago. So even if it was a music industry related comment, it doesn’t make any sense.

Francia did an interview about life after her kidney transplant. She has to live quite differently now. She has to make sure she drinks a lot of water, 2L+ a day, if she doesn't she really feels that she is missing the kidney. Her diet is changed (not too much protein, etc) and can't drink too much. Poor girl.
This was so unnecessary of her…she sounds so dismissive of “ the girl who gave her a kidney” …and I heard Francia had a hard time recovering after the surgery too and Selena was just out there drinking it away again.
I don’t fault Francia being angry at all!
This is my biggest issue with Selena. She types before she thinks. That being said, I don't know what else she could've posted since it's obvious she chose not to mention Francia. You don't just forget about your best friend (who gave you her kidney).
I guess something like, "I'm thankful for what Francia did, but we stopped being friends," would've been better.

Francia attended her birthday in July/August so they were still “friends” in some capacity - the whole thing is chaotic and I really do feel for Francia, especially considering she was basically forced in to the kidney transplant situation by Selena and the doctor
Selena’s paired up with Apple TV for a 2(?) week trial so you could watch it that way. Annoyingly the dodgy sites I normally use aren’t coming up with any links, maybe try twitter?

Yes Francia gave her a kidney but she/everyone else shouldn’t get to throw that in Selena’s face for the rest of her life. She chose to do it and could have said no.
Halfway through the documentary at the moment and Selena comes off as very immature. It’s almost like she is stuck in her teens and doesn’t know how to respond to things like an adult

Not necessarily true - it was kind of like she was strong armed in to doing it. She explains it quite well here:
If the circumstances were different, I agree with your post
If you can be “strong-armed” into giving someone a whole kidney, then you need to learn how to say no!
It is wrong that Selena told her before she got to know. She should not have agreed to get tested before she was sure she wanted to potentially go ahead with the surgery. That could be down to the doctors/social workers who did not explain the implications of kidney surgery before she agreed to get tested. Of course she was entitled to say no afterwards but really if my friend or sister asked me, I would not do the matching test before I was sure.
Honestly this! I'm sick of them using mental health to be relatable. No I don't feel bad you're surrounded by people who worship and support you. No I don't feel bad you can afford rehab and mental health treatment. If they aren't getting help it's literally on them. Most people would love to being able to afford help.
Yes, because coercion/forced consent has never happened. I totally haven't been guilted into doing stuff for friends. /s

Didn’t say it had “never” happened. But if you’re being guilted into giving over a whole kidney, then you need to re-evaluate who your friends are
I definitely agree! I think she knows but keeps forgiving her for some reason? Their relationship seems toxic af.
Yeah, maybe drinking, partying and superficial things like that. But I highly doubt your friends guilted you into doing a (life changing) medical procedure for them...
This!
I'm 10000000000% sure people would be calling her a POS and other horrible things if she backed out.
Imagine testing for your friend thinking there is a slim chance but not wanting to look bad. Then your friend's doctor tells them you're a match before you. You're friend now expects you to donate your organ before you can even process you're a match.
