Ariana Grande’s Biggest Controversies: From Donut-Licking to Alleged Cheating

usmagazine.com:

Ariana Grande‘s on-set romance with Ethan Slater is far from her first brush with controversy.Since her rise to the top of the charts, Grande’s career has been plagued by scandals.

In July 2015, she sparked outrage online after a video of her licking donuts — and later calling them “disgusting” and saying she hates America — went viral.

She issued several apologies about the incident, asserting in a statement to Us Weekly that she would “strive to be better” after the public took offense to her “poor choice of words.”Along with allegedly feuding with former costars and being accused of plagiarism, Grande’s personal relationships have raised eyebrows over the years.

Naya Rivera once claimed the pop star’s romance with Big Sean may have overlapped with her own — and some fans have allegedly found evidence that the pattern continued in more of Grande’s relationships.Following her whirlwind engagement to Pete Davidson, Grande attempted to keep her love life on the down-low.
