Los Angeles:
Actress-singer Ariana Grande has said that it is “dangerous” to comment on people’s appearance, as she has spent months feeling embarrassed by her thin body.
The 31-year-old singer has been trolled for her thin appearance for a few months now and she got teary-eyed while addressing it during an interview with a French reporter over Oui Oui Baguette with her Wicked co-star Cynthia Erivo .
While talking about how she deals with society’s “beauty standards” and the immense pressure women feel to “always look perfect,” Grande began her recovery, reports femalefirst.co.uk. That’s when Erivo held her hand and told her it was “okay”. ,
Grande said: “Oh my God. I’m not going to… Good question. I’ve been doing this in public since I was 16 or 17 (be it in showbusiness) and becoming a specimen in a petri dish, so I’ve heard it all.
“I’ve heard every version of it – what’s wrong with me. And then you get it right, and then it goes wrong for various reasons. But it’s everything – even the simplest thing – your looks, you know?
He added, “When you’re young and you’re hearing all kinds of things, it’s hard to insulate yourself from that noise.”
Grande continued: “I think it’s something that’s uncomfortable, no matter what scale you’re experiencing it, even if you go to Thanksgiving dinner, and someone’s grandmother says, ‘Oh my God, you What’s the matter?’ Or ‘What’s wrong with you looking heavy?'”
She said it was “terrible” to be on the other end of such comments, before adding: “I think there’s a spontaneity in today’s society that we shouldn’t have at all – others’ looks, looks, what they think. Are, commenting on what goes on behind the scenes or health or how they present themselves.
“From what you’re wearing, to your body to your face to everything about you… there’s a comfortable state that people are commenting on that I think is really dangerous, and I think that includes “It’s dangerous for all parties involved.”
Grande spoke about her dramatic weight loss in April 2023 While she was shooting ‘Wicked’ in London, she posted a lengthy TikTok video in which she told people Encouraged to be “softer and less comfortable commenting on people’s bodies”. ,
