DailyMail.com has reached out to Raisa and Gomez’s respective representatives for a comment.
On Monday, Raisa revealed one of Gomez’s fans threatened to ‘rip out her other kidney’ after being accused of shading the Only Murders in the Building star.
In footage, obtained by TMZ, following days of online harassment, the Los Angeles native made it clear that she and Gomez do not ‘condone bullying.’
‘She literally has a whole non-profit [Rare Impact Fund] dedicated to mental health. And I believe Rare Beauty just even had an event [Rare Beauty Mental Health Summit] for mental health,’ the How I Met Your Father star said.
She continued: ‘So the fact that now I’m being bullied as I am is messing with me mentally. It’s just, to me, it’s not what anyone wants for someone, and she’s literally out there saying please stop. So I don’t understand why this is happening.’
The performer explained that she is ‘doing best to not listen, to breathe’ and is ‘very happy.’
Raisa then addressed the trolls directly as she insisted: ‘I’m living my life. I’m sending love to everyone. I understand. I’ve been a hardcore fan of people growing up myself. I totally, totally, totally get it. But, you know, it’s not nice. So I would say, not just with me, but for anyone, please stop.’
The interview came after deflecting all of Backgrid’s questions about Gomez by instead discussing the weather, being from the San Fernando Valley, the Lakers and avocado trees.
When asked if she regretted donating one of her kidneys to the Wizards of Waverly Place alum – who’s now in remission from the autoimmune disorder Lupus – in 2017, Raisa replied: ‘I would definitely speak to someone again about organ donation and the process and stuff.’

Tense: Raisa reportedly told the Wolves singer that ‘she didn’t give her a kidney, so she could go out and drink’
‘The other day at the movies I was with my friend Lily and someone came up to me and said, “Hey my friend is the one that you spoke to a few years back about the kidney donation and she’s really grateful,”‘ Francia said.
‘For all of that, it’s worth it,’ the Grown-ish concluded.
Raisa hasn’t been pictured with the Same Old Love hitmaker since her July 27 TikTok, where they pondered different variations of the ‘He’s a 10, but…’ trend.
The star has also wiped all existence of Selena from her Instagram account, and she no longer follows her despite them being close enough to have matching tattoos.
But as recent as March 10, Gomez – who still follows Francia – declared that she ‘will never, ever, ever be more in debt to a person than Francia,’ who got tested to see if she was a match ‘three days’ after they spoke.
‘Regularly drinking alcohol above the maximum recommended limits can raise your blood pressure’can be dangerous for people with a kidney transplant,’ according to National Health Service (NHS)
Bitter: Raisa does not follow Gomez anymore, but the Rare Beauty founder still follows her former friend
‘The idea of someone not even second-guessing to be a donor was unbelievably overwhelming,’ the Only Murders in the Building producer-star said on the Apple TV+ series Dear…
‘I know I was so, so, so lucky. I understand that that doesn’t happen for a lot of people and I know the outcome of some of those situations and how serious they are. So I do not take it lightly that it’s happened to me that way.’
Raisa found it ‘interesting’ that Selena told Rolling Stone that ‘her only friend in the industry really is Taylor Swift’ and she was also allegedly upset over being left out of her Apple TV+ documentary My Mind & Me, which aired in November.
Some questioned the timing of the Love and Noraebang star’s whole debacle as she’s promoting her role as assistant stylist Valentina Morales in the 20-episode second season of How I Met Your Father, which resumes May 23 on Hulu.
