Ariana Grande Slams Body Comments, Says Online Criticism Is “Dangerous”

Ariana Grande is speaking out again about the constant comments surrounding her body, reminding fans and online critics that judging someone’s appearance can be harmful. Her message came through Instagram, where she reshared an older interview from her first Wicked press tour.

In the clip, Grande said she has heard comments about her weight and looks for most of her life. She pointed out that people today often feel too comfortable making assumptions about someone else’s health or personal life based only on appearance. She said in the interview that “commenting on others’ looks, appearance, what they think is going on behind the scenes, or health or how they present themselves … that I think is really dangerous.”

Grande added that she feels supported by people close to her, and she no longer wants to engage in conversations about her body. On her Instagram Story, she told followers she shared the interview again “as a loving reminder to all.”

Concerns around her slim figure have followed her through both Wicked films, with fans often expressing worry online. Still, Grande made it clear she doesn’t appreciate those discussions, even when people believe they mean well.

This isn’t the first time she has addressed the issue. In 2023, she spoke openly about people comparing her current body to older photos. She explained that the version of herself people once thought looked “healthy” was actually a difficult period. She said, “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.”
