Ariana Grande Sucks

I keep hearing people go, "Oh, she's so talented!" "Oh, she has a whistle thingy!" "Mariah Carey has finally found someone who can keep up with her!" "She's such a talented artist!" "She can act, sing, and serve face!" "Look at her, she's so much healthier now!" "She only stopped calling because her phone died, Mac Miller was the love of her life"

When really, when I look at her, I just see an emaciated 33-year-old woman trying very hard to be a child again. She wears childish clothes, becomes skinnier and skinnier, constantly shrinks herself around children to look more like a child, does childish behaviour such as lying on the floor (I've seen multiple photos of this).

I see a woman who has a history of dating men freshly out of longterm relationships/marriages. Take, for example, Ethan Slater. That's just the most recent example. Mac Miller had a 7-10 year relationship with Nomi Leasure before dating Ariana.

I see a woman encouraging unhealthy standards for young girls in society nowadays--take Glinda. She played Glinda with that starved look. Girls look at her. Glinda's supposed to be pretty. Girls, even thin ones, look at themselves and think, "I wish I looked like Glinda." And that's how EDs start. That's how people ruin their lives.

I see a fanbase determined on closing their eyes to a dying woman, encouraging her Eternal Sunshine tour despite her looking half-dead in it, talking about how healthy she is now even though I can see her collarbones clearly, her ribs, her sternum, her head looks too big on her body.

I also see an exceptional singer, yes, but anyone with proper training and good dedication could cultivate a range like hers. It would be difficult, yes, but not impossible. I don't know why people think of her range as if she's the only one in the world who could do it. Heck, without any vocal training whatsoever, I know people who can hit high notes, like the note in THE GREATEST by Billie Eilish just to give an example.

I also see a downright horrible songwriter. Some of her lyrics are just *sigh*. like "We got that hood love", "you give me chills every time we chill", "we came from favelas" (like girl favelas are slums she had two rich parents), "you drink it just like water", “you ask why i love your mom so much because she’s an older you”, just to name a few.

So, controversial opinion, and I've gotten insane hate for this, but I stand by my decision
