What the fuck? Why would someone be that skinny
When we saw Wicked, I turned to my wife and said "someone needs to fix that girl a sandwich."
Seriously though, it's sad to see. No healthy person is that skinny.
Some video of hers came on my spouse's Spotify just now, and we both said the same exact thing. Except cheeseburger instead of sandwich.
Humans need muscle mass and bone density. Please, it's ok.
cheeseburgers are sandwiches
got em
This was petal? The music video was really good. I feel bad for her. She needs help.
karma for the decade of blackface
Ariana Grande is a shitty and classist person, and she's dying.
It's baffling to see so many people, not even able to live paycheck to paycheck, foam at the mouth when it's correctly pointed out she's dangerously starving. Her dumbfuck cult of a fanbase are witnessing her commit suicide via ED, and scream at anyone pointing it out as "body shaming".
I mean, this is the same bitch who said she hates Americans because they're fat (something that correlates to poverty). She also has used her body to sell countless products to young impressionable girls who will never be able to achieve her body size without also engaging in starvation.
This isn't just a return to the "heroine chick" EDs of the early 2000s, this is going far past that. This is the "3 minutes from dying" chick. This will have dire consequences on young people's psyche for a whole generation.
I think you got autocorrected from chic to chick.
What is ED ?
The standard text editor.
Erectile dysfunction
Enhanced Dinosaur
Eating Disorder(s)
Thank you
She's an easily influenced influencer. Remember her licking doughnuts as a trend? She was with "friends" at the time.
Similar to Will Smith, she's a rich kid with a ton of insecurities and lots of bad acquaintances. She'll keep making mistakes because that kind of negativity leads your thoughts astray easily and you need something grounded to keep you going. I'm not sure she has that something to hold on to.
From licking that donut to how pretentious and annoying her and that black chick were on that movie premiere tour to the ultra processed sliced deli meat brand of music she puts out that's like so much else out there and her thinking she's something special? I really don't like her.
i feel pity for her of course. also, thanks lemmy o grant me (a 47yo dude, basically listening to either deadmau5 or Motörhead) a peek into today's pop stars, so that I can have an awareness discussion on this body image thing with my 14yo pop culture sensitive daughter. i don't think she's got a body image problem, but good to nail it now.
Protip: if you find something heartbreaking, it is not a shitpost.
Pro-tip: the community’s description explicitly states: “Anything and everything goes. Memes, Jokes, Vents and Banter.” Consider this a vent.
Also, content policing on a platform as small as Lemmy makes no sense. This also isn’t the first snarky, smart-ass comment you’ve left on my posts, which is also weird.
Yeah dude, lemmings will follow you around and downvote all your comments if you call em out for stupid bullshit, or even just generally disagree with them. God forbid you manage to trigger a tankie brigade, they'll follow you around for a month with alts and sockpuppets.
Dude or dudette, have a little respect for the shitposting community. This is not a shitpost.
I try to write what I think directly, no snark or smart assery intended, I just don't want heartfelt posts about serious stuff mixed up in my genuine shitposts.
Celebrities aren’t real people. They are all part of the Epstein class. Let’s end the worship of celebrity culture!!!!
Don't particularly care, except for that she is essentially just promoting anorexia to her fanbase of young girls who don't know better, which is pretty fucked up because Ariana should know better.
The thing is, she most definitely doesn’t know better right now in the depths of anorexia. Anorexia warps your sense of reality and self, and it's also a competitive disorder (hence, the “flaunting” many people suffering from it do). I mean, in the music video, there’s a note that says “couldn’t hurt to lose a few pounds” while she looks like that, so she’s obviously not in her right mind. I blame her management, executives, team, family, and friends for enabling her.
If you watch the full video though she's obviously "opposed" to the critique she's getting from the judges (the note), as she goes full Carrie on them in the end. The other girls celebrate her for it. My takeaway is that the pressure put on women is the men's fault, and women want to be free of it.
And I'm guessing the contents of the notes are real comments she's gotten over the years, not self-written notes to her current self. I don't see how you can read it any other way than this video being about revenge and freedom.
That said, I agree she looks sick and needs to heal from all of the pressure put on her. Obviously it's affected her a great deal. But I can't help to read this video as a means to get there, like public therapy, sort of.
I watched it, and I just don’t buy this explanation when, in the same video, she’s purposely wearing stuff meant to accentuate her bones and figure. The “industry critique” aspect of the music video just falls flat. Someone on another platform said it better than I could: the fact that in a gore/horror-themed MV Ariana’s real-life body is the scariest part says it all. Ironically, I think the best “industry critique” is one she didn’t even mean, when she reads the innocuous note, “You bloom wherever you’re planted” (you become famous if, when, where, and how the ones at the top want you to).
So the video accentuates how thin she is, then shows her negative response to the group that told her to be thinner... that all sounds consistent with criticising that kind of commentary to me.
I'm not going to comment on how thin she is, but that explanation seems the most likely, else why would the note be in there at all?
Doesn't the note sound like the agent from Jeanette's book?
No, it’s the fact that the video glamorizes how emaciated she is, which is incompatible with seeing “could lose a few pounds” as a negative, since she’s flaunting the end stage of being skinny. You can’t critique something you’re the personification of and trying to paint as normal. “Couldn’t hurt to lose a few pounds” is exactly the deadly lie anorexics tell themselves because of the delusional thinking fueled by their disorder.
But it’s clear to me by now that you’re not engaging in good faith.
I feel like women critique the physical appearance of their peers much more than men do.
Sure, men prop up this system of oppressive beauty standards but women ultimately sustain and engage with it.
Ariana Pequeno now
Actually 🤓 Ariana Piccolo, her surname is from Italian origins
Ariana Venti?
Ariana Grande’s super fans will shamelessly argue that she’s healthy, nothing’s wrong, and that the elephant in the room shouldn’t even be mentioned
I went to read a few articles after seeing this post. They all cite "fans" criticizing "body-shaming" her for being "too thin". I don't think those people ever knew someone who had anorexia or how dangerous this is.
She's lost so much weight that even her tatts vanished.
