14 DAY TRIAL // Even though Ariana Grande is a big success in the charts these days, there is also a stream of rumors that the petite singer is getting too big a head for her career. Reports are coming in on a daily basis that she's turning into quite a diva, and people in the industry feel like she hasn't earned that right yet, she still has got more work to do under the spotlight.
After she was blasted by Giuliana Rancic on television for elbowing her out of the shot in order to get to display her good side, Ariana Grande is now being blasted for telling her fans to “[expletive] die!”
Ariana Grande was disgusted by her fans during a meeting, said she hoped they all “died”
The report comes from the New York Daily News, which spoke with an industry insider. He/she had a very interesting story to tell about how Ariana treated her fans when she had a meeting with them outside a radio studio in Manhattan.
The insider revealed that “She did autographs and pics and was all smiles until she got into the elevator. And as soon as the doors shut she said, ‘I hope they all [expletive] die.’” Ariana is currently topping the charts with her new album and is very much in demand, but all of her accomplishments are being dwarfed by this nasty rumor that she's turned into a right diva.
People in the industry are blasting her for her diva behavior
While most people in the music industry are used to stars acting out and making outrageous demands, Ariana is still in the early phases of her career, so many think she's not entitled to this “larger than life” attitude she's putting on.
Previous reports indicated that her promotional team had very specific instructions for interviews during her recent trip to Australia. These included things like “don't use natural light” and “do shoot only from left side of her face.”
This part with the left side of the face was confirmed by several other reports (including Giuliana Rancic), as well as in a video recording of an Australian TV show where Grande gave an interview.
Because she was seated to the right side of the anchors, Ariana kept looking off camera, in the opposite side of her interviewers, just to show off her “good side.” Many considered this a sign of complete disrespect.
Moreover, Ariana apparently also has a set of predetermined questions she will answer to. If you mention anything about her former TV series, her Justin Bieber collaboration or the death of her grandfather, she will walk out of the interview.
And now, she's also got something against her fans, the very people who make it possible for her to even have a career.
