Pop star Selena Gomez says she vaped and that it altered her voice, calling the habit “stupid.” Multiple outlets report she also described struggling to quit, framing her comments as both a personal admission and a caution about potential harms.
Doctor and medical warnings in the coverage go beyond vocal cord irritation, with one outlet emphasizing that vaping may carry health risks faced by many people every day. Other celebrity-focused reports foreground the broader pattern of public figures using e-cigarettes, using Gomez’s comments to highlight how vaping is perceived and discussed in pop culture, rather than focusing primarily on clinical explanations.
