I know I’m relatively petite, I’m 5’2 and have pretty much always been a 0-2, but it is so wild to me that people were size 8s in…middle school? Like when we were barely teenagers? HOW? That is literally child abuse.
I can’t for the life of me understand why this is an acceptable thing. It’s so dehumanizing to call a whole person a body. Genuinely wild
What does “recovering from midsize” even mean??? You recovered from being overweight by becoming more overweight? I’m lost
I don’t get how everyone can’t tell these odd angles and strange poses are blatant body checks. Holy shit. I can’t believe an A list celebrity is posting this shit on their main account
Not only did she skin walk Victoria and copy tf out of Mariah, but her entire SWT mood board was just Ciara/Rihanna. Half the outfits were stolen from queer/poc designers. And then she had the nerve to sue Forever 21 for “copying” her stolen aesthetics
…this is what she’s been performing with a whip and mask? Really? I had never heard the song and I can’t hear shit in the tour videos of it (because she can’t sing anymore), so my curiosity finally got the better of me and I listened to it. I didn’t even know that’s where the “so unproblematic” line comes from 😭😭 but this is like, not the gag she thinks it is. It’s so bad. Who are the girls coming through in a sticky situation? Aren’t all her friends gay men? I haven’t heard any of the songs from ES besides this and WCBF and I think I’m keeping it that way
When positions came out, it was so hated by her fans that she scrapped half the era. I was still a fan at the time and I remember not even wanting to admit I liked a good chunk of the album bc they were dragging everyone who did lol. They bodyshamed her incessantly and whined about how bad the songs were, so she regressed into her ED and released the biggest nothing burger of an album (which I still have never heard)—eternal sunshine. So I find all this commentary pretty hypocritical 💀
First off, shoutout m0ds for taking down the posts I’m referencing, y’all are amazing! But I feel like I’m seeing a total influx of posts that are basically just thinspo/bonespo lately. I know myself and many others here have or had EDs and don’t want to be triggered, but even more than that, I just feel like it’s not even productive or actual snarking. We know she has an ED. We know she is unwell. Posting shock value pictures doesn’t help anyone or add anything to the discussion at all, and every post being like “I’m so concerned for her, also look at her sternum” is kinda fan behavior?? Am I the only one who thinks this?? Lol
EDIT: body posts are fine. Calling out her bedazzled bones in wicked is fine. TikTok edits of her bones are not. Neither is multiple posts of the same pic from a different angle and saying “omg she looks so skinny”
All her fans wanna hop on their high horse about how Ariana’s “not responsible” for the people looking up to her. But she is. She has been for years and she KNOWS it! Her fans talk about eating disorders as if they understand how they work. Anorexia is a mental illness. It has the highest mortality rate of any mental illness. They completely dismiss how triggering she is being to people who are actively suffering. She could try to recover—I did, and I looked like her at my sickest, and I didn’t have half the resources at my disposal that she does—she chooses not to. She could stop glorifying her body (those outfits highlight her sternum and collarbones for a reason) or at least be honest about it being unhealthy, but she chooses to tell us that she is the healthiest she’s ever been and full of love and light and stop commenting on my body 🩷🎀🫧. It makes me so angry. I looked up to her as a kid and I think a lot of people here did too. She’s actively creating the next generation of girls who think that being a size 2 means you are a disgusting whale. Her fans feel so comfortable fat shaming anyone who tries to express concern that she is dying. And she IS dying. There is no way she has not lost significant amounts of cardiac muscle. I work in healthcare and have been through inpatient treatment for anorexia, and I KNOW she has permanently fucked up her body. No I’m not her doctor but I have eyes and an education lol. She will never be able to undo all that damage, but she could stop it from getting worse. Instead she’s thriving on the attention and concern and money. It hurts my heart to watch it happen. Idk man this shit pisses me off so bad because you can’t even say anything without a million urinators calling you a fatass who doesn’t know her and has no right to speak on her. I am actively fighting against my brain trying to normalize how thin her arms are so I don’t regress with my ed. I feel like I’m going insane
Every time I see the eye surgery comparisons I think of this
Her signature used to be oversized crew necks, now she’s tying them with a scrunchie to make them more form-fitting 😭 she can’t wear an outfit without body checking
She is as ugly on the outside now as she is on the inside. It’s a little funny even if it’s also concerning. She used to be so beautiful and vocally talented (albeit a shitty person) and now she is neither. Every video of this tour makes my ears bleed. As a classically trained vocalist, I promise you her poor voice and range will not last if she keeps doing this technique that makes it sound like she’s running her vocal cords through a cheese grater. If I paid thousands of dollars for those seats, I’d be pissed 🤣 anyway karma comes for us all and rich pop girlies are no exception!!!! i’m pretty stoned so I hope this makes sense
Edit for everyone who thinks I meant that having an ED is karma: I don’t think that. I have been anorexic most of my life and received professional treatment for it. She was actually my thinspo when I was 12! I meant that what is happening to her life, her botched surgeries, losing her voice, no longer being conventionally beautiful etc is what she deserves. Being mentally ill doesn’t give you a free pass to be a terrible person!
This person shouldn’t be a professor; making claims like these in a higher education setting is incredibly inappropriate and many of their points haven’t been researched/proven to the degree proper academia entails (because they’re not true). Not only that, but it is damaging to people with disabilities that are not within their control or who face actual racism. But noooo, why take accountability? Claiming to be marginalized is so much easier!
EDIT: also noticed that they misspelled “food desert” as “food dessert.” At this point, the jokes write themselves
Looking back at her past tours, she had lots of puffy/textured outfits, jackets, poof sleeves, etc. They weren’t specifically designed to accentuate her (already thin) frame. This tour is a crazy contrast because basically every outfit has her shoulders, chest, and arms out. I’m seeing bones I have never seen before, and I’m premed 😭. Not to mention the monster high boots! It’s diabolical
Right. Because all POC are automatically fat. It would break their brains to know I’m both queer and brown and have never been fat. It’s not colonialism! It’s just called healthy eating!! (Reposted without handles lol)
They HAVE to be trolling. This cannot be real
And we all know the sex, love, etc. is expected to come from thin people.
Not sure if I’m supposed to blur out usernames/subs so I did, but this was in one of the fan subs that popped up on my homepage for some reason? They all seem to think the DW collection is out of touch and recycled 🤡
