Selena Gomez Breaks Her Silence Post-Rehab, Thanks Fans For Their Support

Selena Gomez has broken her silence following the news that she completed a brief stint in rehab in January.
The 21-year-old singer posted a photo of herself smiling on a boat and wrote on Instagram, "I've done everything I could to the best of my ability. Thank you for the unconditional love and cyber hugs. You inspire me."
Gomez reportedly spent two weeks at the Arizona treatment facility, Dawn at the Meadows last month, and though her rep said she was not there for substance abuse, there have been multiple reports that she was smoking marijuana and dabbling with prescription drugs Xanax and Ambien. Other reports claimed it was on-again/off-again beau Justin Bieber who pushed her over the edge, forcing her to cancel the Australian leg of her tour to seek treatment.
"Selena came to understand just what a bad influence Justin had been on her life. Their relationship left her broken-hearted," a source told Radar. "I don't know whether Justin pushed her to drug use, but amongst their close knit group of friends, smoking was common place."
Glad she's in a better place now! But will she be able to stay away from the Biebs?
