This video examines how public scrutiny and social media can create a false dichotomy between body shaming and genuine concern, using Ariana Grande's physical changes as a case study. The content explains that eating disorders are social illnesses that spread through comparison and imitation, particularly in industries where appearance impacts success. The video argues that concern for someone's well-being should not be automatically dismissed as body shaming, and that celebrities may struggle with health issues without publicly acknowledging them, making it difficult for fans to distinguish between speculation and reality.

ARIANA GRANDE IS DESTROYING HER BODY (scientifically proven)
Added:Am I allowed to talk about it yet? No.
Seriously, am I? Because I feel like for the last year, we've all been participating in this weird social experiment where Ariana Grande walks onto a red carpet, appears in movies, posts a photo, goes on tour, or literally just exists in public, and then millions of people have the exact same reaction at the exact same time before immediately being told that they're terrible people for noticing it.
And honestly, I think that's the part of this conversation that has been currently driving me insane. the feeling that everybody is being asked to ignore something that is literally happening right in front of our eyes. Because here's the thing, I genuinely do agree that people are getting too comfortable talking about women's bodies. I think social media has completely broken people's brains when it comes to talking about celebrity culture. I think people can be invasive, cruel, entitled, and downright disgusting when it comes to female celebrities specifically. And if this was simply a case of people picking Ariana Grande apart because she gained some weight, lost a little bit of weight, got older, or changed her makeup style, or just overall picked her apart because she didn't look the way that she did 10 years ago, then I obviously wouldn't be making this video. But you guys already know I simply just don't think that's what's happening here.
Because people aren't looking at Ariana Grande today and going, "Oh, well, she just doesn't look as pretty as she used to." They are looking at Ariana Grande and feeling genuinely worried. And whether that worry is justified, misguided, helpful or harmful or productive or completely useless is kind of a separate conversation. The point is that it's there and every time they try to articulate it, they're immediately met with two completely insane responses. The first is that they're simply body shaving. Uh the second is that, oh, they're just not concerned enough. We need to be more concerned.
And now I feel like we've somehow reached a point where having a normal human reaction, it's just simply impossible now. So, buckle up because today I'm going to be deep diving into the serious topic about how Ariana Grande is completely destroying her body. How the way that we're watching people react to it in real time is getting a little bit weird and how there is a complete side to this story that seems like nobody's talking about. And if you guys haven't already, make sure you guys like the video and also subscribe down below. You know, I love you so so much. And if you guys are already subscribed, don't worry. I'll have you in my will. Yeah. So, I'm just going to come out and say it. Uh Ariana Grande is looking extraordinarily small these days. Every single time a clip from the Eternal Sunshine tour pops up on my for you page, the comments aren't talking about the tour. They're not talking about how iconic her vocals are.
They're not talking about the choreography or even the performance itself. They are talking about how scary and frail this woman looks. And if you guys honestly don't know what I'm talking about, let's take a look at this video right here.
Those those damn shoes are bigger than her.
Like they It is It is actually crazy business. When I started seeing this, I I just can't even I couldn't even believe how much skin she was showing in these outfits. It's not even an attempt to hide away what's going on here. So, what do you mean? You're shocked people are talking about it. She's very aware of what she's promoting. Low energy, too. Her dress is a black swan reference. And the thing is, at this point, this isn't just random internet gossip anymore. It's not like the random few people coming across this, you know, it's just casual banter. Now, people are trying to wrap their heads around what in the world happened because if you've followed Ariana Grande's career at all for any length of time, you know that this is not how she's always looked. So, naturally, people are just coming up with their own explanations, coming up with different theories and just as many reasons as they can to figure out why she appears so differently than how she did a couple years ago. One of the theories people keep bringing up is the Manchester Arena bombing, which honestly isn't even a conspiracy theory so much as it is people trying to connect the dots between an incredibly traumatic event and somebody who has publicly spoken out about struggling afterwards because I think a lot of people have forgotten how horrific that event was.
22 people were unalived and hundreds were injured. Ariana was only 23 years old at the time. And she spoken openly about experiencing symptoms of PTSD, trauma, and lots of anxiety in the years that followed. And nobody can sit here and really say that one event caused everything that happened afterwards. I do think it's understandable why so many people point to Manchester when trying to understand her current state because her current state is just shocking.
Obviously, experiencing something like that would definitely affect your sleep, your stress levels, your relationship with food and your mental health, and virtually every aspect of your life. You would probably need to go through a lot of therapy afterwards just to process an event like that. And then, of course, there's the whole Ethan Slater situation, which opened up an entirely different can of worms. Because regardless of what people think about that relationship itself, we can't deny that Ariana Grande was getting absolutely obliterated online for it.
And I got to say, I parttook in some of that. Yes, my Ariana Grande deep dive.
It's right here. It's pretty messy.
>> The fact that this man blew up his entire marriage, his family, left his wife and baby for Ariana Grande for a temporary relationship, all knowing her history and the way that she operates is absolutely crazy to me. But what's more crazy to me is I am still seeing people defending Ariana Grande and saying that it's him. He's the one who did it. He's the one who stepped out on his wife and family. That is entirely true. But what I find insane is that when women actively know that you are a married man, you have a child, a a very young infant at the time of this entire situation, and these women somehow get a free pass. Like, well, no, he's the one who did it. It's it's all him. Why do we allow women?
>> It's just pattern recognition. She's done it with everybody, right? Like, and and to not make a comment about it would be naive, right? It would it would just be ridiculous because the truth is it was happening right in front of our eyes. You're a public figure. I think that people are totally reasonable to talk about that. And it also I think shines a little bit of a light on the type of person that she was. But it doesn't stop the fact that getting that level of hate would be horrible. It would hurt a lot. It would be very very uncomfortable. Every social media platform at that point just became flooded about details on her personal life. And whether or not people think that that criticism was justified, I think it would be very difficult to live through that level of scrutiny, especially at such a large scale. Like for me to get hate comments on a video is one thing. I got, you know, ouch, it kind of hurts when somebody that I don't know sends me a comment. It doesn't. But when it comes to like news outlets, covers of magazines, every news person and blind item coming out and talking about you, obviously, it's a lot. It's overwhelming. People have also pointed out that her appearance seemed to become increasingly concerning around that same period when the controversy exploded, which has led some fans to believe that the stress of the backlash may have played a role. Then reports started circulating back saying that Ariana Grande and Ethan actually broke up, which only added fuel to all this speculation because people were wondering if it was relationship stress, public criticism, and a very busy work schedule that was taking place at the time. I also have to point out in this conversation that she was starting to look very, very different. I'll try to keep the concerning language to a minimum. Around the time of her starting to film Wicked, before Wicked, I mean, I think we can all remember this. Ariana Grande is already a very petite individual. She's not a super tall, curvy, large woman, but this change was kind of insane.
No, it's it's it's really really odd. Also a whole other conversation. Her acting like an innocent baby. Like being like, "No, I never stole a man. I'm just a baby."
Like, it's it's all weird.
Love you, Jennifer Culage.
And it's just like she's everywhere.
She's on every media platform. Like we're seeing her at award shows. We're watching her in the movie. We're seeing her doing like roll out for Wicked. And we're seeing her from every angle. And it's scary, you guys. Like it was very scary. Wicked saved her.
The delusion is insane. You guys, what do you mean? Ari, we love you, but what happened to you? We hope you are healthy and happy. Look at this insane comment section. Oh, look what I found in my pocket. The fans do not like this kind of conversation. A lot of fans have definitely mentioned that she became significantly smaller during filming and some people believe that she immersed herself in the Galinda role that she was like pretty much method acting and it may have intensified existing pressure surrounding her appearance and what she felt like she needed to look like in order to fill this role. Again, nobody actually knows, but I think it is telling that so many people independently point to the same time period when discussing when they first started to become worried for her. In fact, one of the moments that a lot of these fans are bringing up is a specific moment during this tour that's happening right now where she breaks down crying, thanking all of her fans for their support. Ariana Grande breaks down in tears at LA concert. This is so overwhelming. Why does the industry enable this? No one in the industry is saying anything. Same old story as Amy Winehouse. Industry people are completely indifferent and act sorry afterwards. And while of course we can speculate there's so many different reasons why somebody would become that emotional during a tour, a lot of people interpreted this moment as evidence that she's actually holding on to a lot more than she's letting on at this current point in her life. And obviously what she's leading on publicly, like she's not ever, ever mentioning this. She's also turning off all of her damn Instagram comments. She doesn't want people to talk about it. But the thing is, she knows people are talking about it. And honestly, when you combine the visible physical changes, and the intense public scrutiny, the emotional moments on stage, and the fact that Ariana Grande has increasingly limited comments on all of her platforms showing her appearance, it's just not surprising that people are speculating. And I think a reason that this conversation is becoming so unbelievably frustrating is people are coming out and acting like there's only two positions that you could be holding on the topic. Either you have to pretend that nothing is wrong. And if you do notice that anything's wrong, then you are a body shaming monster, or you have to go ahead and turn Ariana into some really cruel cautionary tale and spend all your time making like awful evil comments about what her body looks like. And honestly, I feel like both positions are completely missing what's actually happening. Ariana Grande needs to get help. I mean, again, a kind of a scary image. Like, she's choosing to post this. Oriana is small because of her ED and her I'm vegan excuses to further restrict not OMPic. These are very deep conversations and people get into it, especially on Reddit. One thing I keep noticing is when people bring up Ariana Grande, they don't talk about her the same way that they talk about other celebrities. They're not saying, "Oh, wow. She used to look really different.
She she used to look this way or that way." They're not saying, "I I just I preferred her old style." The reaction, you guys, it's almost always concern at this point. And whether people want to admit it, concern and cruelty are not at all the same thing. And I feel like one of the reasons this conversation is resurfacing is people are literally being convinced not to trust their own eyes. Like it it's it's just it's insane. Like we're supposed to pretend that this isn't real, that it's not happening to somebody that it's like, "No, no, no. She's really healthy, guys.
She's really healthy. I can see. I can look. You know what I mean? I I can have an opinion. Is she listening to us?
Ariana Grande has disabled comments on her latest Instagram post, which people are seeing as a way of reducing the intense discussion surrounding her appearance, while others feel it shuts down genuine concern from fans. In recent months, many viewers have expressed worry about how small Ariana appears in tour footage and photos.
While nobody should be subject to hate or abuse, I also don't think concern for someone's well-being should be automatically dismissed as body shaming.
The conversation becomes even more complicated when the person involved is one of the world's most influential pop stars. Some argue that commenting on anybody's body is inappropriate, while others believe that staying silent about visibly concerning changes can normalize unhealthy standards and discourage honest discussion. Look, I'm sorry, you guys. Look at this picture. Look at these pictures. She is posting these pictures. She is not trying to hide a single damn thing. She's not wearing a turtleneck or a big jumper or No, no, she's not. She's just openly posting this. This is how she's performing on stage and then decides to turn off her comments. So, how can you notice something like this? You know, you go to the tour, you see her post on Instagram, we've been watching all of the wicked press run the past few years and noticing how weird all of it is, and then we're immediately informed that noticing this change is somehow the problem. Like, make it make sense. If this was a man, if this was anybody else on the red carpet who was looking substantially different, anybody would say something about it. Anybody would express genuine concern. I think that's what's made people so weirded out and worried about this situation. Because if Ariana came out tomorrow and said she had been struggling with some kind of health issue, everybody would suddenly feel comfortable acknowledging what they've been seeing the entire time. The only reason people have been acting so confused is because there is no explanation. And human beings hate uncertainty. We hate looking at something that seems very obvious and being told that we shouldn't notice it at all. Like we simply shouldn't talk about it. We shouldn't even mention it.
We hate this feeling like we're partaking in some weird social performance where every single person is being told not to notice reality. And like this is the thing that pisses me off. Like we're not stupid, right? I think this about every single time we talk about the Kardashians, we talk about anybody that comes out on the red carpet with a new face. Oh, well, don't talk about Lindsay Lohan's new face.
We're not stupid. We've seen the pictures. We're a follower. We've helped pay for your life. We know who you are.
We've streamed the damn songs. And you're going to have the audacity to go blindfold. Don't you dare look. Don't you dare even talk about it. What do you mean? I don't like speaking on her body.
I never did. But it genuinely gets to a point, I'm not even joking. This isn't okay. I understand the perspective of not wanting to talk about women's bodies in a negative way, but when you're a role model for millions of young girls, it gets to a point where it's extremely dangerous to pretend like this is normal and attack anyone that raises any concern for it.
>> Has anyone out here ever considered that Ariana Grande might be extremely ill and that's why she's so skinny? Like, y'all are so quick to like flame her and be like, "Oh my god, she has such a crazy eating disorder." And you did the same thing with Selena Gomez when she gained weight and we ended up finding out that she's actually has an illness. Ariana looks so small and unhealthy now. Ariana back then.
There is a clear difference. Like top comment, right? Like I don't understand the fans. Like the the fans, you're doing her dirty. You really are. Hello Hello.
I've said enough, have I not? I think I think I've mentioned this enough. The truth is, I also at the same time think people have become way too comfortable saying that she's a very healthy young individual and that if you call any of this out, then you're clearly not a real fan. Then sign me up. I I am not a real fan then. I I am certainly not. And one thing I'm also noticing is that people are talking about her online as if she's already gone. Every comment section is full of people saying that she's dying.
She's disappearing. This is her goodbye tour. This is the end. My god, you guys are morbid. And honestly, I find that really, really disturbing. Not because people shouldn't be concerned, but I think people are forgetting that they're literally discussing a living and breathing human being. Ariana right now, this is not a true crime documentary, you guys. She's a real person who regardless of what's happening behind the scenes, regardless of what has happened in her past, still has to wake up every single day and exist in her own body. And maybe this is why I get so genuinely upset when people try to spin this into some grand conspiracy theory.
Even though you guys do know I love a tin hat, you know I love a conspiracy theory because every single time we've seen a celebrity struggle, the internet immediately starts inventing these elaborate explanations that somehow manage to be less believable than the obvious answer. Suddenly, it's some evidence of like a larger plot. And I'm sitting over here thinking, why is the possibility that a woman is struggling with her relationship to food somehow less believable than all of these bizarre theories? Because the reality is, we've talked about this on my channel before, EDS are incredibly common. They affect millions of people.
They go undiagnosed for so many. And they're especially common in industries where your appearance directly impacts your success. And based on the way that people are reacting to this, Yeah. Like it's kind of freaky because honestly you guys know I don't think Ariana Grande exists in a vacuum. I don't think any celebrity exists in a vacuum and I think they are kidding themselves if they pretend like one of the most successful women in music on the planet doesn't have her own influence doesn't have a large level of influence. Now before somebody takes my statement completely out of context I am not saying that Ariana is responsible for every insecure teen on the internet. I'm also not saying that she's encouraging other people to have EDS. I'm also not saying that she's sitting at home plotting on how to negatively influence young girls.
That's just ridiculous. But what I am saying is influence doesn't require intent. Because whether we like it or not, human beings, they copy each other.
That's how culture works. That's how entire generations end up wanting the same face, the same body, the same lips, the same nose, and the exact same aesthetic. And what I genuinely find so disturbing about this whole ED conversation is they're not individual illnesses. They are social illnesses.
They genuinely spread through comparison and imitation. There's this whole concept that we've talked about on my channel before. If you haven't watched it, you can click here called thinsspo.
And I'm horrified by the amount of girls that probably have Ariana as their thin spo. In fact, I've actually seen it spread around in comment sections before. Ariana Grande already exists in a culture that let's just say worships smallness for a lack of better words.
And guess what girls are going to do?
They are going to put her on a pedestal, watch this tour, and they are going to worship her body. Because let's be honest for a second. If Ariana Grande looked exactly the same, but weighed significantly more, would the internet still be treating her as if she's literally the most beautiful woman alive? And I'm not going to say anything, but I think we all know the answer, which is why I find it so frustrating when people try to isolate the situation from the larger culture surrounding it. And maybe this is where I disagree with a lot of people online because I keep seeing this expectation that if Ariana Grande was struggling, then she would admit it, that she would acknowledge it, that she would publicly address it in a way that would satisfy everybody talking online. But that's not how these things work. In fact, if some people actually are suffering from an ED, denial is often part of this illness itself. That's what makes this conversation so difficult because people expect victims to behave in a way that makes them easy to support. They expect perfect honesty, accountability, and self-awareness. And of course, you guys know real people don't really work like that. Ania is literally a psychiatric issue. Like, it legit influences the way you think and act. So, how can you expect somebody going through something like that to act in a normal and controlled way? Which is why I think it's entirely possible for two things to be true at the exact same time. It is possible that Ariana deserves compassion. It's also possible that Ariana herself may never acknowledge her illness. In fact, this is one of the most common things that people suffering with an ED will do. They will often try to deny that they have an ED altogether, which is exactly what Ariana has done.
In this moment where she actually speaks out about it, and people's concern with her looks a few years ago, this is what she had to say. The body that you've been comparing my current body to was the unhealthiest version of my body. I was on a lot of anti-depressants and drinking on them.
>> I don't advise it much. Don't drink every day.
uh while we were just tipsy in the studio >> and eating poorly and at the lowest points of my life >> that this has been one of like the best years of my career and like the worst of my life >> when I looked the way you consider my healthy but that in fact wasn't my healthy >> yeah I also made those excuses when I was balls deep in my I I do agree with the fact that just because somebody is healthier looking doesn't mean that they live the healthiest lifestyle. style, right? You could be drinking every single day, smoking every single day.
Nobody would really know the signs. But I can't turn around here and say that I agree with what she's saying. And honestly, I think the internet would be a healthier place if everybody stopped thinking that every conversation required a choosing side. Because sometimes reality is very messy. Certain stories that we hear about from different people, whether it's cheating scandals or relationship rumors or everything going on with this girl right now, sometimes it doesn't have a single answer. Sometimes it doesn't always have one thing that's going on or one specific way to look at it. And I think that yes, I think Ariana is playing a role in pushing unnatural thinness onto young girls, but we can't blame her the same way that we blame, for example, the Kardashians for lying to us in order to sell us products. On one hand, we've got celebrities that outwardly lie in order to take money from us, you know, so that they can take advantage of us directly.
I personally don't think that's what Ariana is doing. She is destroying her body because she's actually sick.
Because she's mentally unwell, not so she can somehow take advantage of her fans. Thank you guys so much for watching today's video.
