Selena Gomez is ‘going off the rails,’ walks around with her cheeks out

I was on the fence on whether to cover a bunch of stuff about Selena Gomez. Then I noticed that her new movie, Behaving Badly, has scored a whopping 0% on Rotten Tomatoes. Not a single critic has liked this movie, which is supposed to be a raunchy comedy. The poster alone looks awful (I’ve included it at the bottom of this post). Then I noticed these photos of Selena stepping out for a “meeting” yesterday in LA. From the front, she looks casual and appropriate for a (casual) event. From the back, she had about three inches of cheek hanging out.
You can see the unblurred photos here. These pictures are shocking. Selena almost always keeps up a wholesome appearance in public even though we’ve heard so many tales about her partying and wild behavior. Visible cheeks seem like a cry for help. Even moreso than social media meltdowns, possible boob job, and a rehab stint. Ugh, and those shorts look really uncomfortable.
This week’s issue of InTouch is all over the meltdown theme. Some of this is based upon Selena’s recent yacht partying with Cara Delevigne:
* Selena’s 22nd birthday week in St. Tropez was an extended party binge with Cara Delevigne. They regularly partied in nightclubs until 6 a.m. “Selena had a lot to drink,” says an eyewitness. “She went totally wild.” A friend says, “Selena parties until she passes out. It’s sad because she can’t even go to someplace like Disneyland and have a good time without partying. She actually has gone to Disneyland high on magic mushrooms.
* Demi Lovato is still sick of Selena’s bullsh-t in general.
* Selena loves smoking pot and also does ecstasy and cocaine. Says a pal, “She was at a party in Beverly Hills [last year] and kept going to the bathroom and leaving the door open as she partied with two other girls. She wasn’t discreet at all. At another party, she was taking swigs of vodka, and as people were rolling and smoing joints, she poured a gray powder into hers,” says the friend. “I said, ‘Selena, what are you doing. You’re going to ruin everything!’ She smoked it anyway.”
* We already knew that Selena fired her parents as managers in April, but she also put the $3.5 million house she’d bought them in 2011 for sale. A source says that “Selena hasn’t spoken to them in weeks.”
* Her family feels that time is running out, especially with so many new bad influences. “Cara is a well-known aprtier and hte last person Selena needs to be around right now. But Selena just wants to be around people who want to party and have fun and not take life seriously, which is what Cara does.”
* Selena is “smitten” with Italian playboy Tommaso Chiabra, who owns a luxury travel concierge company (he’s also a Lohan conquest). But she is “hooking up with a lot of different guys right now.”
* To summarize: “She’s completely gone off the rails.”

How much of this is true? I believe a lot of it. Selena is a mess. This week’s issue of Star adds drama with an anecdote from the “I dated an A-lister” feature. A guy says that he took Selena to dinner: “Once we sat down, she started bawling. Everyone was staring and pointing, but she didn’t care.” Through a napkin full of snot (gross!) and mascara, Selena told the guy she couldn’t stop thinking about her ex-boyfriend. Swaggy strikes again.
One more thing: In the wake of Justin Bieber and Orlando Bloom’s boyfight in Ibiza, Selena wants everyone to know that she and Orly never hooked up. They simply smoked a cigarette together.
