Ariana Grande recently clarified the rumors about her cosmetic procedures in a candid lie detector interview with Vanity Fair. The 31-year-old artist discussed the speculations around rhinoplasty and other enhancements while sharing her journey towards accepting her natural beauty.
In the interview, her Wicked co-star, Cynthia Erivo, asked Ariana if she felt pressured to undergo cosmetic work for acceptance or popularity. Grande humorously denied having had a nose job or breast augmentation, with the lie detector confirming her truthfulness. When asked about a facelift, she joked, “Nope, not yet,” indicating she might consider it one day. This was her moment to silence the critics: “Take that, YouTube people,” she playfully added.
Moving On from Botox and Fillers
Grande acknowledged that she had previously used fillers and Botox but stopped all such treatments over four years ago. She stated, “That’s the extent of it,” affirming her support for anyone who chooses to enhance their appearance in ways that feel right for them.
Once, Grande’s approach to beauty was about concealing flaws, but she now emphasizes embracing her natural look, including her “well-earned” smile lines. Reflecting on her past use of lip fillers, she noted it was a time when she felt societal beauty norms pressured her. Since stepping away from those enhancements, she feels more at ease with aging and accepts her true self.
Embracing Individuality
On the subject of beauty choices, Grande asserted that everyone should feel empowered to do what boosts their self-esteem. She provocatively asked, “Why do we care?” highlighting that beauty is a personal journey. Likewise, she refuted persistent rumors about having a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), laughing at the notion and confirming it’s not something on her agenda.
Ariana’s candid and playful attitude towards cosmetic enhancements conveys an empowering message: individuals should feel free to make personal decisions without facing criticism. Regardless of her future choices regarding procedures, Grande‘s views on beauty have shifted, centering on self-acceptance and authenticity.
As she continues to thrive in the public eye, Grande aims to inspire others to cherish their unique journeys to beauty, whatever shape or form that may take.
