The Health Set Up

[Blind Gossip] The heartfelt confession of a health issue seems to be almost fashionable right now!

It seems like half of young celebrities claim to have some sort of chronic malady that is not visible to the eye (e.g., anxiety, depression, panic attacks, lyme disease, lupus, chronic fatigue syndrome).

Some of them are just setting you up so you will feel sympathy for them instead of the annoyance you might feel if you knew what they were really doing.

Right now, a young female celebrity is feeding you one of these health stories. Of course, she chose an ongoing and chronic “health issue” so she can recycle it repeatedly if need be. She learned this from another family member.

What’s really going on? She’s a drug addict. She needs to go to rehab. If the press catches her when she does go, she will say that it is for one of those sympathy-producing health issues and she was merely trying to get help quietly without worrying her fans.

Her fans will laud her for quietly taking care of her “health issue.”

You’ll know better.

  4. Gigi Hadid, and her “Hashimotos”… like her mama’s “lyme disease”.

    As someone who has MS, using a chronic disease as a PR ploy p*sses me off bigly. Part of me hopes they get a karmic drop-kick ASAP.

    • I have something called Takayasus Arteritis which is in the same family as lupus, so whenever I hear Selena Gomez giving her lupus spiel I want to rip my hair out. As a 25 y/o woman with a similar disease, I know I could never live her lifestyle with my chronic pain/ fatigue. This blind is sickening. People with invisible illnesses already go through enough without this BS.

      So sorry to hear about your MS. I really hope you’re doing well. Hang in there, friend!

  5. Selena Gomez… again. smh

    -or- Lady Gaga ?

    Both are reportedly fond of the nose candy. Selena needs to cease and desist. Her new kidney is probably on life support and severely damaged already.
    Gaga has complained of fibromyalgia. Could be a cover up for her fluctuating weight and bipolar like swings. My #1 realistic advice is handle your s* ! Too much blow, off to rehab they go.

    • Why assume the Lyme disease was fake? It’s a serious condition, it is known the standard testing is inadequate. YH could afford to access and pay for the best long term antibiotic treatment for Lyme disease which can help people make significant improvements. I think it’s unfair to say she definitely did not have it.

    • Hmm, I’ve had Hashimoto’s for 30 years. Today I learned I can use it as a disability. WOW!
      Why not do what normal people do and take a replacement med to remedy it? Geez, people are the worst!

    • I’m like Very Unseemly says. I have had Hashi’s for over 30 years. Gigi chose the wrong endocrine disease if she’s crying that she’s got massive weight loss. Weight GAIN is almost always a terrible problem for people with Hashi’s. You don’t have a metabolism left and it’s extremely easy to pack on pounds even if your eating habits aren’t that bad. I actually laughed when I read her explanation that it’s Hashi’s causing her to be gaunt. lol

    • Most gain weight, but for me my Hashimoto’s caused a huge weight loss. I looked awful and none of my clothes fit, until I got on meds and now I weigh more than before I got sick!

  10. Bella Hadid pretending to have anxiety. She learnt this fakeness from the best – mom Yolanda.

  12. Gigi hadid duh learned it from her mom giving bella “Lyme” to cover up that addiction

  18. Bella Hadid talked about her anxiety and Lyme disease, Gigi mentioned her thyroid problem, obviously Selena talks about lupus/depression/anxiety, and Chrissy Teigen has some infertility-related issue. It sounds like whoever this about has only recently opened up and they learned it from another family member in the public eye. My best guess is Bella.

  21. lol i was waiting on this one.. gigi hadid!
    she def does coke with her boyfriend zayn… also when she was tweeting i thought wow! she really took an excuse out of selena’s book (or her sister bella with her “lymes disease”) just come clean and get help stop blaming disorders and diseases that people actually face on your drug use

  24. Gigi hadid saying she has hashimotos. Just overall how she explained it was really odd. how a trial drug balances her hormones & that made her thinner? So she’s cured? My sister suffers from the disease and this is not how it goes.

  25. Kendall Jenner with her ‘anxiety’, it’s always being mentioned on the show.
    I’m guessing the drug is coca in or aderall, it’s bound to be a stimulant so she can mantain her slim figure.

    • Are you serious? Nobody’s talking about kendall and her anxiety hahaha no one paid attention to her. It’s all about Gigi and her revelation, so obviously she.

  28. Gigi Hadid. She and her gross boy-bander boyfriend seem like big fans of the booger sugar. Explains her weight loss & general dead behind the eyes appearance.

  31. I believe this is Lady Gaga claiming to suffer from fibromyalgia. It’s a good cover because it’s not visible and if she’s ever busted for her drug addiction, she can then blame becoming an addict on pain medication. I think she’s doing heroin though.

  34. Gigi Hadid’s Hashimoto’s was learned from momma Yolanda’s Lyme disease. I’ve hashimoto’s and it’s fairly common. And I work my * off. Gigi’s drug may be heroin.

  36. Gigi Hadid FTW!!!! I said she was a coke addiction because her “Hashimoto’s disease” is complete BS

  38. Selena Gomez and her supposed lupus leading to a kidney replacement. Is she *still* on the coke after losing a kidney? JFC.

  39. Female Celeb: One of the Hadid chicks.
    Drug: Coke
    Clue:”learn it from a family member” – her mother

  46. Gigi Hadid, claiming to have Hashimoto Thyroiditis. Which will also be her handy excuse if she ever gains 3lbs.

    It disgusts me that celebrities lie about stuff like this to get sympathy and a get out pass for rehab, then go on living their lives in ways that people with real chronic illnesses are unable to do a fraction of. I got diagnosed with heart failure in my 30s this week so forgive me if I have zero sympathy to spare for lying supermodels.

  48. Gigi Hadid and her Hashimoto’s disease…..family member she learned it from is her mother, Yolanda Foster, and HER “lymes disease”. Clue being “fashionable”.
