It’s not ‘body shaming’ to worry about Ariana Grande’s appearance

Whatever the reason, it’s obvious to anyone with two eyes that Ariana Grande is too thin. The singer, who seems to have lost an extreme amount of weight in recent years, released a new music video, ‘Petal’, on Friday in which her starved frame is on full display. Her jutting breastbones, ribs and hollow eye sockets make for painful viewing, with many fans and commentators speculating on the star’s physical and mental health.
