Ariana Grande Responds to Weight Concerns
In her new TikTok video, Grande shared her belief that everyone “should be gentler and less comfortable commenting on people’s bodies.” She emphasized that “there are many different ways to look healthy and beautiful.”
“I know personally, for me, the body that you’ve been comparing my current body to was the unhealthiest version of my body,” Grande shared. “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.”
Grande acknowledged that she “shouldn’t have to explain that,” but she shared her hope that “something good might come” from being open about it.
The singer went on to point out that “you never know what someone is going through,” adding, “Even if you are coming from a loving place and a caring place, that person probably is working on it, or has a support system that they are working on it with.”
