Megyn Kelly has drawn attention after saying, during an episode of The Megyn Kelly Show, that she believed pop star Ariana Grande was 'disturbingly thin' and belonged in a facility. Kelly also said she believed the thirty-three-year-old singer was heading in the same direction as Britney Spears, accusing Grande's management of prioritising money over checking her into a facility.
The comments came amid speculation over the singer's health following the release of her Petal music video on 31 July. In the visual release, Grande appeared extremely thin to some viewers, which prompted distraction and concern among her fans. For context, the singer's appearance had previously been thrown into the spotlight during the filming and press tour for the movie-musical Wicked, remaining a largely controversial topic over the past year.
