Pop star Ariana Grande has drawn concern from fans after revealing a noticeably thinner appearance following the release of her new music video.

Ariana Grande recently unveiled the music video for her new song "Petal." In the video, she plays an aspiring star who auditions multiple times in pursuit of fame.

In the video, a man tells Ariana Grande, "We miss the old you," and suggests, "Why not go out, find yourself again, come back, and try once more?"

Ariana Grande leaves the scene but returns shortly after with a chainsaw, brutally attacking the men. Later, covered in blood, she returns to the waiting room, where other female audition participants erupt into enthusiastic applause.

The music video is interpreted as a satire on society's relentless demand for female celebrities to maintain their past appearances and constantly change. However, many fans focused more on Grande's gaunt appearance, with her bones visibly protruding, than on the message conveyed in the video.

One fan commented, "People don't miss the old Ariana; they miss a healthy Ariana." Another fan expressed hope that "Ariana Grande realizes there are many people who genuinely worry about and care for her regarding her weight loss comments, not just 'haters'."

Grande has repeatedly addressed rumors surrounding her weight and appearance over the years. Amid ongoing speculation about her changing body shape, she has consistently emphasized that she is healthy.

In a 2024 interview, she stated, "I think it's truly dangerous when people speak so casually about others' bodies."

She further pointed out, "There is an atmosphere where people recklessly comment on others' appearances, what may be happening behind the scenes, their health status, and how they present themselves."
