00:00It's something that is uncomfortable no matter what scale you're experiencing it on.
00:04That's Ariana Grande with a message for the haters.
00:08Stop calling me too skinny or I'll break your face!
00:13We're paraphrasing just a smidge, but that's the general idea.
00:16Ariana Grande is addressing people criticizing her weight, saying it's dangerous.
00:22She was on a web series called Oui Oui.
00:24Is there a doo-doo website too?
00:26It's the French kind of Oui Oui, you doofus.
00:29But yes, Ariana was doing press with her Wicked co-star Cynthia Erivo,
00:33and she talked about how sick she is of people commenting on her weight.
00:37Even if you go to Thanksgiving dinner and someone's granny says,
00:40oh my god, you look skinnier, what happened?
00:43Or you look heavier, what happened?
00:44There's a comfortability that people have commenting on that,
00:48that I think is really dangerous.
00:51It needs to be the people around you that actually know you
00:54that can speak up and be your support system.
00:56Random online strangers coming at you being like, eat a burger, that's not it.
01:01That's not going to help or change anybody.
01:03That's just the internet, you can't stop that.
01:05If you're a celebrity, then the internet's going to comment about you.
01:09Yeah, but how is Ariana supposed to avoid all the negative stuff online?
01:13There's just no way!
01:15Just don't read the stuff.
01:16Yeah, don't read it then.
01:17Don't read it!
01:18Oh yeah, that'd work real good actually.
01:21Although Ariana has a plan of her own to avoid the negativity.
01:25It's not invited, so I don't leave space for it anymore.
01:27Perfect! Problem solved.
01:29Commenting on people's bodies is wrong, but it's going to happen on the internet
01:33because people are bored and mean.
01:35Goodbye everybody!
