A lot of Americans had a hell of a week and a very difficult Thursday, in light of current events. Well, so did Ariana Grande.
Ariana has inspired fans to cope and heal in the wake of Mac Miller’s tragic death, but she’s having a difficult time, too.
On Thursday, she revealed her emotional struggles on Twitter.
Thursday, September 27, Ariana Grande took to Twitter to share that she was going through a difficult time.
“Can i pls have one okay day. just one. pls,” she tweeted.
Ariana continued her plea to the universe — or perhaps a scream into the void, as so many of us use Twitter.
She wrote: “i’m so tired pls.”
From this point, her tweets took on a darker, more negative tone.
Ariana tweet-quoted her post from earlier in the week, which read “everything will be okay.”
She had clearly reconsidered, as she wrote: “j f–king k.”
As if that were not already crushing enough to read from such a good-hearted, wonderful celebrity, she also expressed a troubling state of mind.
“[Thank you] for loving me [so much] i do not deserve it,” Ariana tweeted.
Fans saw these tweets and were understandably very worried.
After fans gave her an outpouring of concern and love, Ariana gave a heartfelt reply.
“ur angels in my life,” she assured her beloved Arianators.
“it’s just been a tough month,” Ariana explained.
“i’m trying to get my work done and get back to normal,” Ariana continued. “And it’s hard and i’m human and tired.”
“sorry i let u in or worried u,” Ariana pologized. “i shouldn’t have tweeted. i kno better.”
For the record, Ariana should absolutely have tweeted. Her fans and followers love her and want her to feel free to express herself, whether she’s thirsting over her fiance or grieving the tragic death of her ex.
Or even if she’s just having a bad day.
Ariana sent out a couple of “ily” tweets following her more negative tweets, telling her followers that she loves them in an appreciation of their support.
We absolutely hope that Ariana is doing well.
Every person has their struggles, but Ariana has been through so much recently.
In 2017, Ariana and her audience were the victims of a vicious terrorist attack. Fans — including children — were wounded, maimed, and killed.
Ariana, along with so many others, was traumatized by the event. She took a long time to recover, and was just returning to public life with the release of her album, Sweetener, this summer.
She was celebrating her return and her engagement to Pete Davidson when Mac Miller died of an apparent overdose.
Now, Ariana is living a nightmare. Not only did her ex die suddenly, but some of his fans were cruel enough to blame her. Generally speaking, the only thing to blame for an overdose is addiction.
Ariana is a treasure and a talent and she deserves all of the happiness in the world. It is heartbreaking to see her suffering. We hope that she is able to find that comforting light again.
