Ariana Grande’s fans are once again begging the singer to get help after a viral tour video drew concern over her increasingly thin appearance.
The 11-second clip of Grande performing part of her choreography for her Eternal Sunshine tour was posted on June 25, and has since got viral with more than 1.3 million views as fans focused on the singer’s frame rather than the movement itself.
In the video, Grande’s outfit left her chest and shoulders exposed, with viewers pointing to her visible sternum and the muscles in her neck as signs that the singer should not be on stage and instead focusing on her health.
“She shouldn’t be touring right now,” a fan wrote.
Ariana Grande’s latest tour video made fans revisit concerns that had already grown days earlier
The reaction came less than a week after another photo had already revived concern about her physique.
The previous discussion began last Saturday, June 20, when Grande uploaded a photo of herself wearing a black Ludovic de Saint Sernin lace halter dress and matching choker for an r.e.m. beauty campaign.
In the image, the singer is seen applying an icy glossy balm from her beauty line.
Many viewers, however, focused on the fit of the choker, which appeared loose around her neck. The detail alarmed fans who had already grown wary of Grande’s changing appearance.
One viewer wrote they were “worried this is going to end badly.”
“I get a pit in my stomach seeing some of her shows,” another fan wrote.
The new video deepened that reaction because it came during one of the most demanding stretches of Grande’s career.
Her Eternal Sunshine Tour marks her first arena tour since the Sweetener World Tour.
The 2026 series of concerts supports her Eternal Sunshine album and kicked off on June 6 in Oakland, California. It is scheduled to end on August 23 in London.
Grande had already framed the tour as a possible farewell to large-scale touring, describing it in late 2025 as her “last hurrah” and saying she might not tour again for a “long, long, long, long, long time.”
That context has made the repeated concern sharper for fans who fear the singer may be pushing through a demanding schedule before quitting live shows for good.
Debate about Grande’s appearance grew significantly during the Wicked 2 press cycle

The latest tour video followed months of scrutiny that intensified during the Wicked 2 press cycle.
Photos and videos of Grande at red carpets, interviews, and press events circulated widely online, leading to renewed commentary about her weight and physical appearance.
Several viral posts compared recent images of Grande to older photographs, with some viewers saying she looked “unhealthily thin.”
The discussion quickly split into two camps.

Some fans said they were genuinely worried and urged Grande to seek help if she needed it.
Others defended her, arguing that she is naturally petite and accusing critics of body-shaming her under the guise of concern.
Arianators, Grande’s fanbase, have repeatedly pushed back against claims about the singer’s health, saying strangers should not diagnose her based on images alone.
At the same time, critics and commentators have argued that the situation reflects Hollywood’s obsession with extreme thinness, hollow cheeks, and bony frames, especially as high-profile celebrity images circulate among young audiences.
Grande previously asked people not to comment on her body
The discussion has become more complicated because some social media users have used alarming language about Grande’s health, including claims that she suffers from an undisclosed eating disorder.
No public medical diagnosis for Grande has been reported, but the actress has not remained silent on the issue.

In 2025, Grande responded after a photo comparison between her current appearance and her look after being named Billboard’s 2018 Woman of the Year began circulating online.
While she recognized the concern from fans, she also asked people not to “comment on [her] body.”
“The body that you’ve been comparing my current body to was the unhealthiest version of it,” Grande said in a video uploaded to TikTok. “I was on a lot of antidepressants, drinking on them, and eating poorly. It was the lowest point in my life.”
The 2018 photos showed Grande with long, silky, dark hair and noticeably rounder cheeks.
At the time, some viewers speculated that she may have had an eating disorder, while others accused her of using aggressive weight loss methods like injections.
Fans also revisited the period involving Grande’s ex, Mac Miller, after the latest video went viral
The renewed concern around Grande’s tour footage also led some fans to revisit the late 2010s, one of the most difficult periods of her life.
In May 2017, Grande was performing in Manchester, England, when a bomber detonated an explosive at her concert, taking the lives of 22 people and injuring more than 500.
The attack reportedly left the singer dealing with survivor’s guilt and long-term psychological trauma.
“May 22, 2017, will leave me speechless and filled with questions for the rest of my life,” Grande later said of the bombing.
Just over a year later, in September 2018, Grande’s ex-boyfriend Mac Miller passed away of an accidental overdose at age 26.
Around the same time, she was navigating a whirlwind relationship with Pete Davidson.
The relationship began in May 2018, escalated into an engagement less than one month later, and ended abruptly in October.

At the time, some online users accused Grande of cheating on Miller with Davidson, and blamed her for Miller’s deteriorating mental state.
“Ariana Grande is a piece of sh*t that used Mac Miller’s d**th to further her career,” one user wrote at the time.
Others pushed back against that narrative.
“The narrative that Ariana is somehow to blame for Mac’s d**th is way too prominent for how false it is,” a fan wrote.
“She’s going to pass out on stage,” a netizen warned
A mother has gone viral after revealing how she discovered that her best friend had allegedly been pretending to be her daughter’s mother for months.
Marissa, whose TikTok video has racked up more than 2.3 million views, shared the shocking story in a series of videos that left viewers stunned.
What started as a random message request from a stranger quickly unraveled into a disturbing web of lies.
“Please press charges, that is so terrifying,” one viewer commented.
A message from a stranger exposed a secret her best friend had been hiding
According to Marissa, everything began on March 15, when she received a Facebook Messenger message from a woman she didn’t know.
The message read, “Mom to mom, I just feel like you need to know that one of your friends is posing as your daughter’s mother.”
Marissa asked who the person was talking about.
The woman responded with the name of Marissa’s best friend.
Rather than continuing the conversation, Marissa immediately contacted her friend and sent her a screenshot of the message.
Within seconds, her friend called.
According to Marissa, her friend claimed the woman was a coworker who had been causing problems at work and was taking things out of context.
“She said, ‘I call her my little girl sometimes, and she’s misconstruing it. I’ve never said I was her mom,” Marissa recalled.
The friend repeatedly insisted that the coworker was “crazy” and urged Marissa to block her.
But something felt off.
“She kept asking me if I blocked her,” Marissa explained. “There was just something weird about it.”
Marissa shared screenshots that revealed her friend had been presenting the child as her own
After discussing the situation with her husband, Marissa decided not to block the coworker. Instead, she messaged her back and asked whether there was any evidence to support the allegations. Turns out, there was.
The coworker began sending screenshots of conversations she had exchanged with Marissa’s friend.
One message showed the friend talking about taking “her daughter” to the doctor.
Another included a Christmas photo of Marissa’s daughter that Marissa herself had originally sent to her friend. The image had later been forwarded to the coworker alongside a message that made it appear as though the child belonged to her.
Then came a photo that particularly disturbed Marissa.
A few days after Christmas, her friend had taken a picture of the toddler while visiting her home. The child was wearing only a diaper at the time.
Marissa said she thought the picture had simply been taken as a cute keepsake.
Instead, the friend allegedly sent it to a coworker while discussing how “her daughter” was adjusting after the holidays.
“She was sitting next to me at the tattoo shop when she sent it,” Marissa said.
The screenshots continued.
Some images were reportedly downloaded directly from Marissa’s Facebook page, including photos of her daughter’s first snowfall.
According to the messages, the friend described the child’s experiences as if she were the parent.
Among the screenshots was one that left Marissa particularly stunned
The coworker shared messages in which the friend appeared to describe giving birth to the child herself.
Marissa said the story was completely fabricated.
“This is her birth story, apparently with my daughter,” she explained in the video.
She also revealed that some of the other messages contained additional lies unrelated to her daughter, though she chose not to share those publicly.
The coworker eventually explained how the deception had been uncovered.
While speaking with another person, she mentioned how cute her coworker’s daughter was.
The other woman immediately corrected her.
According to Marissa, the woman knew both of them and pointed out that the child actually belonged to Marissa.
The coworker initially disagreed because she had seen numerous photos and stories shared by the friend.
The confusion eventually led people to compare social media profiles, exposing the truth.
After reviewing the screenshots for several hours, Marissa finally confronted her friend
By that point, the friend had already resigned from her job after coworkers learned what had happened.
According to Marissa, the woman admitted the allegations were true.
“She said she was sorry and she didn’t know why she did it,” Marissa recalled.
The friend later asked to meet in person, but Marissa refused.
Instead, she agreed to a phone call and recorded the conversation.
Because her state has one-party consent laws, Marissa said she was legally allowed to record the call without informing the other person.
She claims the recording captured her former friend admitting to the deception.
Viewers praised the coworker who came forward and urged Marissa to take legal action
The story quickly spread across TikTok, where thousands of viewers expressed shock at what had happened.
Many praised the coworker who contacted Marissa.
“Thank you to that woman for reaching out and keeping you safe! Oh my word!!!” one commenter wrote.
Another said, “S/O to the coworker that took the time to reach out because this is SCARY.”
Others focused on how unusual the behavior appeared.
“I’ve NEVERRRRR had this much communication with a coworker in my life,” one viewer joked.
“This is such dangerous behavior, omg,” another wrote.
Several people urged Marissa to pursue legal action.
“Talk to a lawyer, get an order of protection, and file charges. You might save someone else’s child’s life,” one person commented.
Marissa revealed that she did contact law enforcement. According to her, a deputy later went to the woman’s home and watched as she deleted photos of the child from her phone.
Although Marissa was told she could press charges, she said she has chosen not to do so for now.

The experience also sparked a broader discussion about posting children’s photos online.
“This is why I stopped posting my child online!!!! You NEVER know someone’s intentions,” one commenter wrote.
Another praised Marissa for sharing the story without exposing her daughter’s identity.
“I love that you gave us the tea without including any info on your daughter,” the viewer commented. “You can definitely talk about your kids online and still completely protect their privacy.”
“What was her reasoning? This is wild,” questioned one user
