r/ArianaGrandeNeutral

mourning her like she’s my dead wife
when i was deep in my ed i looked up to these pictures because she seemed so healthy

Maybe this isn’t the right place for this convo…but I can’t help but pity her. This weird baby act she’s doing lately seems to be some sort of coping mechanism / trauma response as a result of being groomed and hypersexualized by that Nickelodeon creep. I’d actually be 100% sympathetic if she did it in private and didn’t shove it down the world’s throat. Like keep that shit to yourself. Is that mean of me? Like is it problematic and unsympathetic of me to be angry?

Could anyone figure out the lyrics?

the general consensus is, some feel like she shouldve respected the aesthetic of the era and gone back to the heavy glam look for this one photoshoot. others feel like she shouldnt have to and are basically shunning anyone with a differing opinion.. what do you guys think?

Here is chamomile's meaning. There are other types of flowers featured as well. What do you think?

I wholeheartedly believe that the Dangerous Woman launch solidifies something I've thought for a long time which is that: Ariana is stuck as Galinda (internally). She likely feels a lot of guilt due to the situation that happened during that time period and all that happened then and used unhealthy coping mechanisms when she was in that headspace (possibly restriction, extreme control, massive changes of appearance, mannerisms etc) that she had to use as she felt their was no other way. Overtime she's likely internalised that as her only form of feeling "safe" (as it would have felt protective then) and not known how else to manage with that guilt or evolve at all leading her to stay stuck. Also the character of Galinda for her, ironically or not, clearly resonated with her significantly and that's why she became so intertwined with galinda on and off screen. I do believe she needs to put in some real work to escape her caricature of Galinda as that is not her true self in every sense of the meaning and should just take some time away. On how this links to the rem launch: she is galinda masquerading as dangerous woman, not ariana referencing dangerous woman for a simple anniversary, this is evident in the fact that even though she is marketing a product to be sold as a different era, she's not even bothered to even slightly alter her makeup from her safe glinda look which is quite literally a different race than her 2016 self. This is at best lazy and at worst, clear stagnation of her as an artist. With respect, I've loved her past eras sm, understand she's faced some terrible things (as everyone does to a degree) and have even enjoyed some moments from the most recent era, but I do think she needs to be more transparent with her fans and not always just do things cause they want it and maybe just step back and go on a break and actually heal.

I think she is gonna sing: Moonlight, Into You, Dangerous Woman and Let Me Love You

But I would love to hear: Touch it and Jason's Songs

The first one ate so much I'm sorry

I was scrolling through her Instagram account and came across an old post from 2021. I was shocked by the number of likes, it was just a random dump. Also, the fact that her snark page is so popular got me thinking about it.

Eternal Sunshine (non-deluxe) is her least streamed album, along with Yours Truly, while Eternal Sunshine Deluxe ranks fourth, behind thank u next, My Everything, and Dangerous Woman.

And do I need to talk about the drama with Slater?

Anyway tell me what do you think

Thoughts?

I saw people debating on here what percentage of Ariana's discography is about sex, so I got curious and decided to make a spreadsheet to chart it out and see if we can factually determine how much of her musical body of work is sex related. I use my time only earth only for the most important of things.

As a fan of Ariana since My Everything, even I was under the impression that a majority of her catalog was sex jams. It turns out this is a false impression of her work as a whole. The result of tracking and labeling her discography by my admittedly subjective interpretation of each song shows that LESS THAN HALF of her music is about sex. Most of the songs are about relationships and more songs mention sex, but about sex? Only ~32%!

I have to say it out loud lol. This look is perfect to me. Vera Wang did a wonderful job here.
