Deli sequin vs. deli beaver vs. deli Bieber. Which is better? How about Luh Me Horror vs. I Luh You Puppy? Props to Ari for finally learning how to say the word "baby" though! Oops...I forgot about "Be My Baby" but whatever.

She was easily the best of the night. She looked gorgeous, and her vocals were flawless, as per usual.

Lorde knows I love Ariana's voice and music but she sounded rushed and tried to do too much. Girl, we know you are talented. All that extra wasn't necessary. My fave live performance of hers was Tattooed Heart on some award show. Forget which!

Bette Midler dragged Ariana in an interview. βItβs always surprising to see someone like Ariana Grande with that silly high voice, a very wholesome voice, slithering around on a couch,β β here, she does some slithering herself β βlooking so ridiculous. I mean, itβs silly beyond belief and I donβt know whoβs telling her to do it. I wish theyβd stop. But itβs not my business, Iβm not her mother. Or her manager. Maybe they tell them thatβs what youβve got to do. Sex sells. Sex has always sold.β
But does it sell more now? βWell whatever strictures there were have fallen apart. And now itβs whatever you feel like doing you can do. I mean, apparently people really like to pretend theyβre having sex. They really like to slap each otherβs butts.β She slaps her own butt. βI mean, donβt ask me. Itβs beyond me. Iβm too old. I donβt know what the end game is going to be. I donβt know where you go from all that sex in your twenties. I donβt know how you sustain it.β If she had any advice for a young woman wanting to break in to showbusiness today, it would be this: βtrust your talent. You donβt have to make a whore out of yourself to get ahead. You really donβt."Source

The fuck? Why is she slut shaming? Honestly, Ariana is the least of our problems, if we're really gonna go after someone, it would be Miley, lbr...
Anyways, I really want Ariana to go back to the "Tattooed Heart" performance and take notes, it's my favorite of all her performances :'(

LOL, before LMH, Ariana had the most virginal family friendly image of any popstar out there today apart from maybe Taylor Swift. So she has one song finally about getting that good good and suddenly she's a slut who can't sell without using sex. Ok Bette...just because you look like Sarah Jessica Parker's great-grandmother and you couldn't pay somebody to watch you "slithering around on a couch" doesn't mean nobody should.

At the rate most performers are going, we will have fully nude music videos and stage performances within the next decade. I'm not a prude, but I wonder if that much sex, sexuality, and nudity is absolutely necessary. It's one thing if the performer is like that or very in tune with that, but Ariana just doesn't seem like that type of person.

I found it a little unsettling that they try to make celebrities look so much younger than they are. The Lolita aesthetic is creepy.

I dont presume to know if it's Ariana or her management or her label that have tried to sex her up, but come on. After she started her career skipping around in baby doll dresses with bows in her hair and cat ears on her head, anything remotely sexual is going to a huge departure. I'm glad they just tore the bandage off with Love Me Harder instead of trying to fit her into some weird sexual but not sexy mold to transition her to an "adult". Part of Ariana's trouble is she got her start on a kids show not terribly long ago and people still associate her with the character. I just think Bette Midler calling her out for being too sexual because of the very tame Love Me Harder video is a little absurd considering we've got JLo & Iggy or Shakira & Rihanna rubbing each others asses, Nicki deepthroating bananas, and Katy Perry shooting whipped cream out of her bazoombas.

So sliding around on a couch is considered being a whore?
K. I have a big couch.

I'm not going in on Bette Midler, since I like her and I think her point is not specifically about Ariana herself, but in general about the industry pressuring women to sell their bodies to get ahead rather than trust in the talent that got them there. Ariana was probably a better target than others because her main selling point has been her singing talent so far, unlike someone like JLo who pretty much relies on her sex appeal to remain relevant.

That jazzy reworking of Problem gave me such life! I pray she takes proper care of her voice so she can be a true vocal beast well into her later years.

I get what you're trying to say but honestly referring to female sexuality as a "problem" and saying that other women are the ones that should be called out is rooted in the exact same slut-shaming, sex negative thinking that old ladies like Bette Midler are spewing. So let's be real and accept that any woman can do anything she wants with her body and none of it is better or worse or more of a problem than anything else.

Because it isn't the '50s anymore I'm not slut shaming Ariana or anything but if we are in 2010s it doesn't mean that singers should perform naked on stage and film a porn music video !!! Everything has a limit (and this is coming from a VERY OPEN MINDED person ) Look at Selena's new song and video, it's amazing why? cuz it's very simple, straight to the point and delivered the msg without any nudity or sexual behavior

When has Ariana ever been anywhere close to naked on stage or in a video? And Love Me Harder is a song about sex, why shouldn't she be expressing sexuality in the video? Selena's is about having a shitty boyfriend. Why should their videos have to be comparable anyway?
