Ariana Grande Addresses Fans’ Concerns About Her Weight And Urges To Stop Body Shaming

Pop icon Ariana Grande is the recent one to speak about comments addressing her body after a long list of other celebrities like Lizzo, Rihanna, Ashley Gramah, Bella Hadid, Selena Gomez, etc. The entitlement to other people’s bodies and vile body shaming comments have now forced Ariana Grande to open up and address the issue in her latest 3-minute-long TikTok video. In this candid TikTok video, the ‘Thank You Next’ singer talked openly about the comments followers and fans have made on her social media regarding her body recently and over the past few years. At the start of her video, Grande said she has a body that is “paid such close attention to”, so she “wanted to address” concerns. She then urges her fans and followers to “be gentler and less comfortable commenting on people’s bodies”.

The 29-year-old singer explained that the body people were comparing to, was “the unhealthiest version of my body”. In that video Grande was shown to have a gentle attitude and a calming voice when she explained the dangerous results of body shaming, warning people that they do not know what is going on with other people’s bodies. Even if the concerns are coming “from a loving place”, she has urged to put an end to them. She said, “I think we should be gentler and less comfortable commenting on people’s bodies, no matter what. If you think you’re saying something good or well intentioned, whatever it is. healthy or unhealthy, big, small…we should really work towards not doing that as much.”

Speaking on the comparison that her followers and the general public on social media have been making, she explained that the body that she was compared to was the unhealthiest version of her. She further went on to explain “I was on a lot of antidepressants and drinking on them and eating poorly and at the lowest point of my life when I looked the way you consider my healthy but that in fact wasn’t my healthy.” after reminding her millions of followers that there are different versions of beauty and looking healthy, her fans applauded for her honesty but at the same time showed disappointment in saying she did not have to explain that. After so many stars coming forward and urging people to stop commenting about their bodies, maybe the social media will take lessons from it and put them to a final end.
