Who says you’re too famous for a breakout? 

Selena Gomez is not above showing off a breakout after a night of glam. The Rare Beauty founder gave her millions of followers a look at her fresh-face skin, complete with a pimple.

In a photo shared on her Instagram Story Oct. 22, Selena, 32, quipped, “Even my skin is over me.” 

It’s a busy season for Selena, who’s been a promotional tour in recent weeks. In fact, her relatable skin pic followed a round of photos of Selena and her co-star Zoe Saldana at the Los Angeles premiere of their latest film Emilia Perez on Oct. 21. The Only Murders in the Building star appears—sans pimple—in full glam as she shares a sweet moment with the actress.

At the film’s premiere, Selena kept it real as she dished about the highs and (tight) lows of promoting the film.

“I think this whole journey has been really wonderful,” she told E! News on Oct. 21. “I feel so grateful. A little tired of dressing up because all the Spanx I got to wear," but I couldn't be more happy to see how it's being received with open minds and open hearts.”

Selena is no stranger to embracing her imperfections whether it’s skin or body. In July, the “Lose You to Love Me” songstress hit back at claims that she got plastic surgery and confirmed that it’s just a little botox.

And in January, the Disney channel alum took to her Instagram Story to celebrate the changes her body—which underwent a kidney transplant in 2017—has gone through while sharing a message of positivity.

"Today I realized I'll never look like this again," Selena wrote alongside an old bikini shot of herself, before adding with a more recent snap: "I'm not perfect but I am proud to be who I am—sometimes I forget it's ok to be me."
