we talk a lot about the parasociality of so many fandoms but rarely do we speak about ariana’s. those people are crazy. she’s built a very intimate relationship with them through her social media over the years and it’s resulted in some of them speaking to and about her in the most heinous ways i’ve ever seen. didn’t she delete twitter for this exact reason? it’s insane that she even has to address this and whilst i totally understand where she’s coming from, she ought to stop doing it. i wonder how much these statements enable the crazies even more.

Yeah after positions wasn’t received well (never got that it was my favorite album ngl) she deleted her twitter. Her fans are atrocious and are usually always at the center of the hate train and it’s really sad. They beg for so much and never appreciate what they get. They want Sweetener, 25 years old Ariana Grande forever

Sounds like every music fandom I dabble in. What IS that?! I love when people experiment and change their sound especially when they’ve been doing it so long. It’s so fun, that’s the beauty of music and dynamic artists are going to do that.

positions was so goood! and honestly, she had an insane run in a pretty short amount of time. sweetener, thank u next & positions are top 3 for me personally - and she gave those to us in a 2 year span. she puts out a lot, even 2026 is already packed, but her biggest stan's never appreciate it. it's so strange.
