On New Year’s Day, the “Hands To Myself” singer was stung by a man o’ war, which is similar in appearance to a jellyfish. The National Geographic described the carnivore’s sting on humans as “excruciatingly painful, but rarely deadly.”

In a picture uploaded to her Instagram Stories, Selena received a piggyback ride from her friend following her injury. A few days after her sting, the former Disney Channel star jokingly admitted that her friends isolated her. “I’m sick and my friends don’t want to hang out with me,” she wrote at the time.

“Me and my friends love going to concerts back home and Ed Sheeran was playing at the Hollywood Bowl,” Selena began. “There was so much traffic and I was very uncomfortable, let’s say down there in that area.” She continued, “So, I will say that it was the first time I had maybe soiled my pants a little bit. And, I was not excited, but I didn’t want to leave, so I kind of was like I’m gonna put a little sweater in the bottom of me and made it through the concert.”
