WASHINGTON — The White House pushed back against Selena Gomez after the singer and actress voiced concerns over the treatment of undocumented immigrants, with officials and critics pointing to American victims of crimes committed by undocumented individuals.
The response comes after Gomez shared emotional remarks about immigration policies and the treatment of undocumented individuals, sparking debate among conservatives and border security advocates. Critics accused Gomez of ignoring cases such as Kayla Hamilton, Jocelyn Nungaray, and Rachel Morin—three American women murdered by undocumented immigrants.
“Mothers of these victims have spoken out against those who oppose securing the border,” read a widely circulated social media post referencing Gomez’s comments.
The White House defended its immigration policies while acknowledging concerns over border security. “The administration remains committed to securing the border while also ensuring humane treatment for those seeking refuge,” a White House spokesperson said.
The exchange highlights the deep divide over immigration policies, as high-profile figures and political leaders continue to clash over border enforcement and humanitarian concerns.
Billionaire Selena Gomez deletes Instagram video crying over deportation, based on misinformation
LOS ANGELES, CA — Billionaire singer and entrepreneur Selena Gomez deleted an Instagram video after facing backlash for her emotional remarks on the deportation of illegal migrant criminals.
In the now-deleted post, Gomez tearfully expressed her sorrow over the deportations, saying, “I’m so sorry. All my people are getting attacked.” Her comments referenced ongoing deportation efforts under former President Donald Trump’s policies.
The Trump administration has begun deportation efforts, focusing on violent criminals, gang members, child rapists, human traffickers, sexual assaulters, and illegal migrants who have criminal records. Many have criticized the billionaire actress and singer for ‘getting her news from TikTok’ and other unvetted sources.
Criticism poured in swiftly, with followers accusing the singer of ignoring incidents involving migrants who have committed crimes in the United States, including the deaths of Laken Riley and Jocelyn Nungaray. Many questioned her silence on these cases while highlighting her prominent platform.
Gomez, whose net worth is estimated at $1.3 billion, has not issued further statements following the controversy.
The video sparked heated debates on social media, with opinions sharply divided over Gomez’s comments and her subsequent decision to remove the post.
