Questioning the actress over illegal immigration, one netizen on X wrote, ”Selena Gomez filmed herself ugly crying about the current mass deportations. Because of course the out of touch celebrity with zero understanding of how dangerous our country has become is crying for the criminals being deported. How pathetic.”

Another wrote, ”How many criminal aliens from Colombia is Selena Gomez willing to host in her walled mansion in LA?”

Selena has long been an advocate for immigrant rights. In 2019, she produced the Netflix documentary Living Undocumented, which tells the story of families of undocumented immigrants living in America.
