Selena Gomez is happy with her newly-svelte body, but a source told OKMagazine.com it took blood, sweat and tears—literally—to slim down!
According to the insider, the 23-year-old singer has been flaunting her toned body because she wants to get back at the haters who called her fat in recent months.

“She put a brave face on those fat jibes last year, but there’s no doubt it hurt her deep down and was a huge motivation to get super-fit,” the source said.
