Ariana Grande has always been loved for her talent, looks, and relatable personality, but recent public appearances have raised concerns among fans. Her noticeable weight loss, particularly at the BAFTA Film Awards, sparked comments calling her “scarily skinny” and “terribly thin.” Many speculated about an eating disorder, with some worried about her health, even suggesting that her organs might be struggling.
Dr. Patrick Wanis, a behavioral expert, explained that the intense public scrutiny comes from the “parasocial relationship” fans feel towards celebrities. People grow up with stars like Ariana and expect them to remain the same, magnifying any changes in appearance. The pressure on women in the entertainment industry to meet unrealistic beauty standards contributes to unhealthy weight loss practices. Despite not addressing these concerns publicly, Ariana’s fans emphasize the importance of her health and wellbeing, hoping she will prioritize herself over external expectations.
