Selena Gomez is celebrating the “power in being vulnerable” after revealing she can’t carry children.

The actress recently told anyone who views her as a victim over her “medical issues” to “f–k off” in a viral video circulating via X.

The “Only Murders in the Building” star, who was at a Women in Film event at the time, said, “Telling people when you need help or when you want help — that is not shameful.”

Gomez, 32, added, “So yeah, I shared that I can’t carry a child. Yeah, I shared that I have bipolar. F–k off. That’s what my life is. That’s who I am.”

She continued, “That’s why I like to be honest. Because everyone is going through something. I don’t have it all put together. I’m not a, you know, whatever. I am me and that’s all I can be.”

The “Wizards of Waverly Place” alum advised her sister, Gracie, and the rest of the attendees to not “ever let anyone tell you that you’re not a good person.”

She concluded, “Screw anyone who tells you you’re a victim. You’re a survivor in my book.”

Earlier this month, the former Disney Channel star opened up about adoption and surrogacy being “huge possibilities” for her while speaking to Vanity Fair.

“I unfortunately … have a lot of medical issues that would put my life and the baby’s in jeopardy,” Gomez explained in her cover story. “That was something I had to grieve for awhile.”

She admitted, “It’s not necessarily the way I envisioned it. I thought it would happen the way it happens for everyone.”

The realization made the singer, who is currently dating Benny Blanco, “really thankful for the other outlets for people who are dying to be moms.”

She told the magazine, “I’m one of those people. I’m excited for what that journey will look like, but it’ll look a little different.”

In addition to her fertility reveal, Gomez has been vocal in the past about her lupus struggles, as well as her mental health.

The Grammy nominee shared her bipolar diagnosis in 2020, telling Elle the following year that she “felt a huge weight lifted off” when she found out.

She discussed it in her Apple TV+ documentary, “My Mind & Me,” in 2022, which was shot over a six-year span.
