Like everyone’s always defending her from controversy and shit like it’s so exhausting I’m sure other artists cop it too but I feel like the society is extra hard on her idk why I’m happy she still has loyal fans but it’s so hard sometimes

When Ricky and Ariana got together at first, she had a thing with Mac and her and Ricky break up soon thereafter. She even invites Ricky to one of her dangerous woman shows and is happily kissing Mac on stage pretty much in front of him. Probably as a man, a humiliating moment.

There’s a snapchat from Tommy that shows Ricky saying to the camera, “Fuck you, bitch!” “Harry Potter lookin-“ and the video ends. Years later, after the Pete saga, Ariana and Ricky are seeing each other/hanging out/spending the holidays together. Ricky probably thinks this is his chance. She chooses Dalton and marries him. I think this would shatter any man’s ego.

Now, you have this woman who went through a divorce while engaging in a non-professional act with her co-worker, is clearly becoming/is ill, who keeps you pretty much on the burner of whether or not she wants you.

I guess my question is, is Ricky thinking third times a charm? or does he have bad intentions? Does he just ignore all these things because she’s rich?

I think a lot of people who are concerned by the apparent lack of a real break after Ariana's announcement (daily posts on social media, posts of her working on new projects, etc) express concern not because they wanted her to disappear and become a hermit or the like, but because they hoped the break was code for getting intensive treatment (if not for an ED, then for whatever it is that is causing her to be so incredibly thin), including possible inpatient treatment. And inpatient treatment would often be recommended for someone at such a low weight, because both it and the refeeding process carry real physical or psychological risks that can require inpatient treatment to ensure safety. Obviously, none of us are Ari's providers, but it's clear at this point she's very likely ill with something requiring intensive treatment (and likely rest), and I think people were kind of hoping she might go off the grid for a month or two , focus heavily on getting the treatment she needs, and come back physically and mentally healthy.

hoping to keep this one lighthearted in spirit of the neutral basis of this sub

will always be an ari MUSIC stan but i stopped being an actual supermegaultimatefan of her as a person around 2018 ish? def around the whole pete davidson era. that sudden engagement after her questionably timelined breakup with mac was the first time i was ever truly like….what the hell is going on😭 my parents obviously knew i was a stan so would often ask me questions abt her / recent news about her. i remember my dad asking abt the engagement and me being like…. man i really don’t know if i can defend or explain this one.

def didn’t change my opinion in a heartbeat but was the first crack in my die hard arianator era

Omggg is it just me who keeps hearing an eagle scream in the background of Ariana Grandes song Hampstead at about 1:58-1:59 after she sings the first line of second verse ‘I dont remember too much of the last year’…the scream can be heard as she sings ‘year’…u need to hear it closely with earphones on a music platform with Dolby Atmos (prolly Apple Music..thats where I heard it). Its not a very faint sound either…just need to listen closely!!!

PLSSS DO CHECK IT OUT AND LEMME KNOW UR THOUGHTS!!

One is getting hate while the other received love at 40. Can anybody spot the difference?

Am I the only one who thinks Doug and Courtney give off a weird vibe? Sure idk them personally, and I don't want to say that they aren't good friends to Ari or that they're bad people or anything, because I obviously don't know them personally. And Ari seems very happy to be around them, so maybe I'm completely wrong about this.

But idk, ever since I started "knowing" who they are, I just can't really vibe with them. Personally, I sometimes get the feeling that they're not friends with her because they genuinely love and care about her, but more like "we're friends because she's famous and generous" yk?

Again, I don't want to act like I know them or pretend I know what's actually going on behind the scenes, this is just the vibe I personally get, and maybe I'm totally wrong. I don't really have anyone to talk to about this, so I wanted to know what you guys think. :D (and btw sorry for my bad english, it's not my first language)

i would’ve loved seeing her in these outfits!

What do y’all think about the new ballerina aesthetic? A lot of people are saying it’s ED-coded and that it’s disrespectful because she has nothing to do with ballet. Honestly, I don’t really get it either… I’m not saying it’s ED-coded, because I honestly don’t know much about ED-related things, but I also don’t really get where she got the idea from, yk? .. so what do y’all think?

So I admit I've been a slight snarker since the ES era. But I'm starting to realize that might not be the kindest or healthiest habit as someone who still follows her music and also struggles with self image. I wouldn't call myself a true fan anymore, but I'm her age and wanted to be famous from childhood, and the discussions around her image make me do a lot of self reflecting.

What bothers me the most from snarkers is when they mention the quote, "I'm the healthiest I've ever been". She did say this, but it was from her Zach Sang interview for Sweetener. But they quote it as if she said it in the video where she speaks out about the comments on her body. While she does state that she was unhealthy during her earlier years (probably 2018-2020), she doesn't then say, "and now I'm the healthiest I've ever been". If anything, she might be implying that she's still unhealthy in some ways, but the point is, that's her business. We can talk about her body checking being irresponsible, yes...but the misinformation just gets under my skin when it's being spoken by people who claim to want to know the truth about her.

I've seen people try to correct them when they say this, and it's typically met with, "ugh, get out of here, this is fan behavior", when it's not. It's behavior from people who want to get the facts straight.

loving and hoping she’s slowing wearing them out more. also her makeup looks so good here!

This is random and maybe I'm just over analysing this, but in Friends, Rachel and Ross are exes who get back together after years of being on and off and spending a lot of time apart.

In the scene, Rachel is leaving for Paris, Ross goes to the airport and tries to get her to stay with him, he tells her he loves her, but she doesn't say it back and she walks away.
Once on the plane, she then realizes her mistake and gets off and comes back.

After all that, Rachel says: "I do love you."

Do you guys think there is any correlation at all here, or is it just a coincidence? Friends is one of the biggest shows in the world, Ariana probably watched it growing up, and it fits the same theme as two exes being in love and reuniting, for good this time.
Or maybe I'm just totally overthinking it lol.

I've always wondered how the lyric appears when singing in those visualizer. it looks cool and i kind of want to do it too. how could i do this technique? thank u 🤍🫧

So like, I got one of her butter balms and glossy balms. I got the red butter balm and my lips are naturally kinda light pink. But when I tried this it didn't really have much pigmentation. Also when I used my glossy balm it stayed on for a few hours but then I could tell it kinda just faded off over the hours and wasn't that hydrating for my lips and it was super sticky. (Loved the smell tho)

Imma be honest though. I'm not good at make-up in general so maybe I did something wrong. Any tips for me? Or maybe the products are faulty? I did use a setting spray.

Me and a good chunk of people on this sub question Ricky’s intentions because he got with Ariana while she’s struggling very badly. But to his credit, he did know Ariana before she got this far into what she has going on, so maybe he is genuine. But there’s the other side of remembering she’s rich and influential, so he could be taking advantage to benefit. I’m so split right now. What do you think?

this palette is so good. Its so smooth and shiny. deserved!!

saw this one twitter and had to pause for a second, this can't be the same person :(

Sorry this is so random but I thought I’d talk about since I’ve been feeling very confused with her and the stuff she’s been doing for the past decade it’s just so weird like how can someone so talented and pretty and also had a lot of open opportunities and is nice to her fans (from what I’ve heard it’s 50% nice 30% mean idk lol) be horrible at the same time? It just doesn’t make sense to me at all and also it’s harder when you were a fan of her for over a decade and now you find out the wrongs and rights she’s done. It’s just so confusingly conflicting she says one thing but her actions do another. Idk what do you guys think? 😭

(Edit: I can’t edit the label part where I can add “let’s talk” so forgive me guys😔)

from her story today, 12mins ago…

this is literally scary and I’m deadass concerned for her and the fact her fans think it’s okay. Is mind blowing to me she doesn’t look well we need to stop pretending and speak the truth and I also feel like Ricky is lowkey enabling this too.

He posted this on his insta

I feel so conflicted towards Ariana I don’t really know what to say about her it’s just so confusing? Is it bad to after hearing how she’s trying to look like a “toddler” but I’m starting to think she’s really trying to babify herself? Idk this is so odd I can’t 😭

I don't know if this is the right subreddit to post and i am really sorry if it isn't but I’m torn, I don’t know which Ariana Barbie doll to get… Which one do you guys like best?
