'I was malnourished and exhausted' reveals Selena Gomez as she takes to stage for the first time since health scare

Selena Gomez has taken to the stage for the first time since her emergency trip to the hospital on Thursday last week.



The 18-year-old performed live and answered questions about her new movie Monte Carlo at Santa Monica Place Mall.



During her appearance she also revealed that she was 'malnourished and exhausted' when she was admitted to hospital.



'I was just very malnourished, so I was low on iron and exhausted,' she told reporters today, when asked about the cause of her health scare.



As enthusiastic as ever, Selena wore a sheer white embroidered blouse and a pair of mini-shorts for her stage performance, which was rescheduled from Friday when the singer fell ill.

She accessorised with some black and tan strappy stilettos and Tiffany jewellery.



She sang her two hit songs 'Who Says' and 'A Year Without Rain' and interacted with some 500 fans who came to see her, apologising for her missed appearance on Friday.



'I want to thank you so much for coming,' she said. 'If you guys came on Friday, I'm so sorry that I couldn't be here. ... I love you guys very much.



'I do feel better!'



After worrying fans with her emergency trip to the hospital, Selena also today let them know that she was going to be fine via Twitter.



'Feeling much better, thank you all for being so understanding,' she tweeted.



Selena was reportedly rushed to the emergency room because of blood pressure-related health problems, but no further details had been given up until the singer's admission today.
