How The Internet Fell Out of Love With Ariana Grande

[@kaylasays]

Hello! This video is leaving the circle so I figured I’d clarify a few things based on some comments I’ve been seeing. 1) I absolutely can acknowledge that Ethan is as much to blame here as Ariana, I didn’t even realize “homewrecking” was a term used specifically for women tbh. They are both at fault here. Tbh I don’t really like discussing celebrity relationships (or anyone’s relationship really) so I’m not comfortable talking about it in a nuanced way I guess, sorry if I missed the mark there 😅 2) Regarding the statement made by Ethan’s wife about the situation, I should’ve def included that for context but I missed it during my research. Either way though I think it doesn’t do much to pacify the cheating rumors considering that I highly doubt she would’ve come out and been like “yes this happened.” It’s embarrassing enough for her, you know? 3) okay one more edit, I don’t fuck with body shaming Ariana or anybody else, so those comments will be deleted just fyi Thanks for watching, if you’re new here, I hope you like my content. This series is always tough because there’s a lot of research to gather and I am just one person so there will always be room to grow and learn. Appreciate your attention!

great video! i agree with all of your points, i feel like most people don't talk about ethan even though he's equal to blame because people know ariana better. i don't see it as a misogyny thing. i can't imagine going after a married man who has a pregnant wife. that's vile

[@BoredandStriving]

What severely bothers me is how smugly her fans are defending her all because she said that the rumors where false because herself said so, 6 months after the rumors came out. Ariana had half a year to disprove the rumors but instead she decided to do it days before the release of her new song with out evidence. And during those 6 months, a handful of ex girlfriends from Ariana past boyfriends have come out to say that Ariana is a home wrecker with a handful of evidence. This women disgust me and it's honestly alarming that she feel zero remorse for what she did and has done

I think one thing to take note of that wasn’t mentioned in the video, is the affair highlighted how Ariana has a pattern/history of starting off as the other woman in multiple relationships. That realization for people definitely had an impact on how people viewed the affair and her as it showed a pattern of behavior rather than a “mistake”.

[@emi_lam]

Another repeated pattern of her (in addition to being "the other woman" of taken men) is that almost all her relationships stemmed from collaborating for work. Nathan Sykes, Mac Miller, Big Sean all featured in her songs, while she met Pete Davidson on SNL saying "he was super hot" "I knew 100% I would marry him first time I saw him" when she was on/off with Mac Miller. Even Dalton, who worked as a realtor for her. Now, she's dating her co-worker Ethan Slater who's was married/just had a kid. It's definitely some time of infatuation problem where Ariana feels super powerful getting these men (who are less popular/wealthy than her) in a professional work environment.

[@xCindyLouWhox]

Very interesting, very good point!

[@cloudmellow8521]

FINALLY!! I'm so glad you brought up what she said about Pete Davison when she worked with him for the first time. I hate hate hate how she had to bring up Mac Millers business about his drug addiction, just because she couldn’t handle the criticism, and she turned it into people hating her because she is a woman. She always does this. I've been her fan since debut but when she started dating Pete Davison I began to dislike her. I know she had every right to date whoever she wanted after breaking up with Mac Miller but the way she went about it was so bizarre and narcissistic. She flaunted her relationship back and forth and made cringey posts and comments about Pete like right after she broke up with Mac who she was in a relationship with for 2 years. Saying she knew she would marry Pete the first time she saw him, which she met him in 2014 btw, I just cant imagine being Mac and hearing this on live television especially knowing they dated for 2 years and she moved on like nothing. Then they get engaged not even 3 months later. That whole era she was just embarrassing. Ariana has this recurrent pattern of not being able to take accountability and thinking everyone is just hating her choices because she is a woman which is so outdated. What can you expect from a snobby rich artist who grew up being rich since the beginning. She has talent but her talent and opportunities are a product of her rich parents, that why she will never take any accountability and why she keeps getting away with everything.

I think "yes, and?" really grinds people's gears because it wasn't even like, people make mistakes type of song. It's really a, yeah I did, so what? Like, people wouldn't care whose dick you ride if those people were single. Regardless of whether or not people believe that artists need to be role models, a society's values function by signifying to even its highest powers what is okay and what isn't. So if your fan base isn't okay with this, then they aren't okay with this; don't pretend like the power doesn't come from the fans who buy tickets to your show, because it isn't yours inherently. To top it all off, nobody could be "separate the art from the artist" about this because she literally made a piece about herself now. You couldn't just disengage yourself from the song and focus on her technical vocal talent, and waive off the songwriting as just another song.

[@jimbob2427]

No it dosent seem like the song says yes I did it

[@AGEE_95]

People are probably gonna read it that way because they are inclined to believe she did it no matter what she says. But the intro to the video alone, where one of “critics” literally says “We read it on the internet so it must be true”, is telling you that she didn’t. Not a day it’s revealed that Page Six spread misinformation. I think for most people, before the news dropped, they were fixated on the idea that Ariana got with a married man, while she herself was still married. Now that that has been debunked people want to say “it doesn’t matter, she’s still a home wrecker”. Facts don’t matter to people. Hating someone based on assumptions does. 🤷‍♀️

[@JaredOn_YT]

The only line that really refers to Ethan is the **** i ride lyric. The song is actually about pulling yourself out of bad situations and finding your way back to the light. "yes, and?" is used in this song as a positive affirmation, not a clapback like some Ariana stans have used it on twitter. It's clear in the chorus: "if you find yourself in a dark situation, just turn on your light and be like 'yes, and?' say that with your chest. be your own best friend. keep moving, like 'what's next.'" The GP has only looked at it to be a "people make mistakes song/so what i did it anthem" because of the controversy surrounding her love life. the **** ride lyric is off putting given the controversy of her current relationship, i get it. but we'd be dumb to pretend like that's what the song is fully about.

And this was offensive because for some reason Fox News viewers and other too-proud patriots can't handle a joke. The way that she was rude to the employee and LICKED the merchandise? A health violation? As a non-follower of that controversy at the time, I don't remember people giving nearly as much lip service to *that*, which is so strange to me now.

No, the show did not end because of Victoria Justice, and the reason Victoria Justice hasn't really reconnected with the previous cast was because she was never really that close to them in the first place because she just didn't want to get involved in the underaged drinking and substance use that was encouraged by Dan Schneider.

One thing that wasn't mentioned in the video is a probably considered as insignificant to other people but it meant a lot to the art community when it broke out and still stuck to me to this day. Back in 2016, Ariana partnered with Brookstone and released a cat-shaped headphone that copied the exact design of the artist Yuumei (Wenqing Yan)'s Axent Wear. I remembered that the actions were taken, but unfortunately nothing came out of it. As an artist myself, I find it to be gross and disrespectful. I never liked Ariana since.

[@mimi_user]

my personal feeling and my theory about why this specifically was so bad for her is because it sort of felt like we'd come to a conclusion with the whole thing when she married. for someone like me who was very much tuned-in and also at an impressionable age in 2018, it almost feels like a betrayal to be brought along for her hero's journey of messy relationships and public controversies, climaxing on the terrorist attacks, her tumultous relationship with pete davidson, mac miller's death and just her whole 2018. thank u next felt like her cleansing herself of the past and turning over a new leaf having learnt how to keep her peace and positions felt like a triumph of the place she had come to. so for her to ruin that fantasy for herself and everyone really felt like an unnecessary sequel of bullshit to a very satisfying narrative that we had been there in the trenches to witness. of course she is not solely responsible for the public narrative that was spun around her, but i think it sort of felt like a cash grab sequel to a very good book where the inciting incident is some bullshit the writer pulled out their ass and that the character would never actually be dumb enough to do. it feels like a negation of the growth we thought we had witnessed

[@cardiganweather]

Agree 100%. And in a world where celebrities are more visibly messy than they used to be and everyone is constantly comparing and criticizing each other's faves, I'm sure ari heads felt such a relief to be able to say, "No, that was old Ari. She's matured now. She's self-aware and happy and in a seemingly healthy marriage." I can understand why, parasocially, fans feel betrayed. And the rest of us get to witness a train wreck.

[@xCindyLouWhox]

Totally agree and very good point. It’s just disappointing to hear/watch her say all of this shit about her now ex-husband just to turn around and do all this now?? It does seem like she unlearned quite a few lessons. And dating coworkers usually never ends well….I bet they won’t be together anymore once the Wicked press dies down and so will their feelings for each other.

I don’t know if this is relevant to anyone else with falling out of “love” with Ari, but I know for me, once Colleen Ballinger fell off her pedestal and everything came out about how disgusting her behaviors were for years, it did affect how I saw Ariana too. Because Colleen has always talked about how close she was to Ari growing up and she was good friends with Frankie, and well Ari put Colleen in her music video, so there was some truth to their friendship. If you were willing to have a friend like Colleen and support her and give her jobs, then whose to say, you didn’t witness how she interacted with fans or hear stories or opinions.

I knew about her dating history but wasn't aware how she basically stole all the men she's been with. So finding out that, plus the fact a young child is involved, put me off both Ariana and Ethan. Havent listened to "Yes, And?" and will not be listening to Eternal Sunshine. And definitely not seeing Wicked! I also feel like they waited too long to make them as Wicked isn't nearly as *popular* 😉 as it once was. Wouldn't be surprised if it closes on Broadway soon like Phantom did.

that's like every movie. Spent like a gazilion bucks, make a trilion but still be at a lose because you spent a gazilion. Weird thing is, studios already had that issue in the 70s

[@jessiedv1247]

I also think the conversation about Pete Davidson after their breakup was wayyyyy too harsh. People were telling Pete to kill himself and always saying how ugly he is. I think people forget Pete’s been to rehab numerous times, a lot of which occurred after their relationship. Ariana could’ve easily stopped the hate surrounding him and didn’t do anything.

[@eternalbliss330]

What I’m hearing from people working on Wicked, the scheduling of the film has been a nightmare. I don’t know if the stars of the show have anything to do with it 🤷‍♀️ EDIT: I may very well be wrong btw and basing it on a couple frustrated people’s opinions. As far as I know everyone has been pleased with the working conditions on the actual set etc.

the scheduling is fine what😭 they had 10 days left before the strike hit, fully wrapped like 3 days ago

[@AIgeneratedHuman]

I like a few Ariana Grande songs here and there and I've noticed that she has a tendency to cast herself as the victim in her songs. She talks a lot about how she's healing from some previous hurt and has baggage and whatnot. I think it's hilarious how she maintains her stance as the victim when she obviously has a pattern of inserting herself into other people's relationships. Granted, I find it amusing when the men she's had affairs with get disposed of after a little bit. She knows how to pick shitty men and give them what they deserve. Based on her songs I've also noticed how she seems to become infatuated very quickly with these men and think she's deeply in love with them one minute then loses interest the next. Based on what I'm seeing, this is something she needs to sort out with a therapist. But this is just what I've gathered from her songs and what we've seen of her dating history. I could definitely be wrong.

[@terenarosa4790]

All the surgeries just made her face disappear. Idk how to explain it. I know there's technically a face there, but when i look at her i don't see a face. It looks so blank now. Like a robot alien. It's uncanny.

[@MoyaBrennan6825]

People need to remember that she comes from insane wealth. She grew up in a luxurious house in Boca Raton. She has never been a grounded “ordinary” girl.

[@stanunproblematic2546]

I'm early today! Just wanna to say, adding the statement of Ethan's wife would've cemented exactly why public opinion is turning against her. That certainly made me feel very bad for her and her son and made me look at Ariana differently! Great job again! (BUT TOO SHORT lol I'm greedy XD)

[@lucypreece7581]

I do worry about Ariana. She likely has some serious undiagnosed mental health issue stemming from being on Victorious because we are starting to get more and more information about how toxic those kind of work environments were at the time and then likely made worse by the Manchester Bombing which would mess with anyone's head and just like break them beyond the point of sanity. I always felt she needed to take a much longer break from music and the public eye after the Manchester attack happened to properly process it and deal with it and get proper help and stuff and maybe if she had done that she could have avoided a lot of the messy situations she has been in recently.

[@justjoannak]

100% agree

[@lmnop29]

Me too, plus the fact she keeps getting surgeries but denying them and black/Asianfishing to me sounds like someone struggling with deep-seated image issues. She was sooo close to being self aware during "Thank U, Next" when she admitted she gets into relationships with men to avoid dealing with her problems, and sadly it appears she's continuing the pattern.

[@tiahnarodriguez3809]

Arianna’s issues stem way before her victorious days. Past classmates of hers have said she was not the nicest person, but I’m sure all of her issues were made worse when she got in the spotlight, plus being surrounded by yes men didn’t help.

[@andshereadstoo7809]

​@@tiahnarodriguez3809 I wanted to say- I dont think these types of behaviour just spawn out of being on a show, to me it always seemed she had dificult life growing up. Also, the things the Nickelodeon guy made then do as minors ona show for minors- horrific ☠

[@MelancholyofMere09]

My favorite comment I've seen is "First and foremost: Ariana is from Florida"

[@cassiejcm]

She showed her true colours when the 22yo Ariana licked the donut in a public shop. If you’ve been 22, you know you know better and she made the choice knowing someone else was gonna buy and eat it. Fowllll. Only children would see that and come up with excuses as to why she’s still a good person. She’s like any other famous person, they think they can get away with everything bc well they do. Disappointing.

She really kept on with the “thank you, next” affirmation , divorcing her husband and moving to another guy , too.. quickly 👀.

[@MeganSin]

My thing about Ari is that she’ll be fine but there will probably be a dark cloud over her due to her love life. She’s kinda the modern day Elizabeth Taylor at this point. Also it’s my personal belief that she hasn’t ever gotten over Mac’s death because since his death she had bounced from one relationship to another in record time.

[@ronweasley496]

I’m not a hater but as someone who disliked her and never saw her appeal, this is pretty satisfying. Like when you don’t like your bffs bf bc he’s an asshole but she doesn’t want to listen, and when he proves you right you just have to be there for tour friend, biting your tongue so you don’t say “I told you so”.

Unpopular Opinion: Sweetener was her BEST album because she made it at her must vulnerable state and A LOT of us related to it.... its not her trying to be "sexy" or "edgy".... also the music videos were some of the BEST music videos of that time !!

[@IzzyQueen12]

That’s a VERY popular opinion but yeah I agree. Some say Dangerous Woman is better but in my opinion, despite the bops, it’s really just filled with pop songs (and is her most dirtiest album, not Positions). Sweetener stands strong even today and it’s experimental, emotional and amazing on so many levels. It won a Grammy for a reason

[@Tiffany-w8c]

The Comments section on the Yes, and? Official music video keeps getting censored. I had written a very polite comment disliking the message of the song, and after two days and a lot of Likes, it was removed. Then I left a comment mentioning this censorship, which was immediately taken down.

[@heathermartin7459]

People were too blinded by the lgbt aesthetic she put in that MV of the time. Tho some lgbt followers i know actually started cancelling her after that queerbait video

[@IzzyQueen12]

@@aeoligarlic4024as a queer person myself, idk if it’s queerbaiting cuz Ariana identifies as unlabeled cuz she doesn’t label her sexuality so technically speaking, she’s not straight but it’s hard to tell cuz she’s only really dated men so it could be seen as queerbaiting? As for the MV, I’m pretty sure it’s stated that it’s about self love which I could see since the other girl looks very identical to her.

[@EcstaticTeaTime]

I am really glad you opened up with the donut thing. I wasn't really a fan but that door closed with her attitude then. And I was somewhat upset when it came out she was learning Japanese because I'm an American who loves Japan and I didn't want her to pull a Logan Paul. She's a child actor who didn't learn how to behave. Every move she has made either has helped her career or come with no consequence. She will not change.

[@girlyvidsbyali1475]

I think it’s funny that’s it’s taken this long to show that maybe Ariana was actually the real mean girl on Victorious and people bullied Victoria who was innocent into extinction and ruined her career over someone like Ariana. I love both girls music. But damn I’ve heard stories about meeting both girls and Victoria is sooo nice to everyone. Ariana has been mentioned as the most disrespectful person.
