Ariana Grande did not let the rumors speak for her. 🎤
In the middle of a show at Chicago’s United Center, the 33-year-old singer took the microphone to clarify something that had been circulating for days: her decision to step away from public life was neither an impulse nor a reaction to criticism. She said it calmly, and the audience responded with a standing ovation.
It all came just after her music video for ‘Petal’ reignited the debate about her thinness, an issue Ariana had already faced in 2013 and 2023. She is now canceling projects such as her return to the West End and saying goodbye to her Eternal Sunshine Tour, which ends in London on September 1, leaving it unclear whether she will appear in the promotion of her upcoming film with Ben Stiller. 🎬
