Selena Gomez's speaking voice has changed drastically in recent years, leading fans to speculate that her battle with Lupus is the cause. The SAG-winning actress began her career as a young star on “Barney & Friends” and gained fame with her breakthrough role in Disney’s “Wizards of Waverly Place”.

Growing up in the public eye, Selena Gomez allowed fans to witness every phase of her life. The “Only Murders in the Building” actress now speaks with a noticeably different voice compared to her older shows and recent interviews.

Fans noticed the stark difference in Selena Gomez's voice and began speculating about the reason. Users on X (Twitter) shared their theories, with one user stating they had always found Gomez’s voice to be congested and only recently realized what it actually sounds like.

On the contrary, some users questioned the bizarre change. “No really, what happened to Selena Gomez's speaking voice?” one of the X users wrote. “Are we sure about Selena Gomez's voice? Was that real?” another chimed in.

Some fans speculated that Selena Gomez's voice change is linked to Lupus, the autoimmune disease she was diagnosed with in 2015. Healthline states that this condition primarily affects women and leads to joint pain, fatigue, and inflammation.

In some cases, Lupus causes vocal fatigue, hoarseness, and reduced vocal intensity, which could explain the change in Selena Gomez's voice. A TikTok user created a compilation video showcasing how her voice has modulated over the years.

The clip, now exceeding 1.9 million views, begins with a teenage Selena Gomez enthusiastically expressing her love for *Gossip Girl*. It then transitions to her subdued and emotional speech at the 2016 American Music Awards.

She noted that her voice had shifted from bubbly to sluggish over the years. During an interview with fashion reporter Taylen Biggs, where her voice sounded noticeably different, she acknowledged that people know too much about her life, making it open to analysis.

“Sometimes it comes with a lot of noise,” she added.
