The Celebrity Beat…

Ariana Grande paused her show in Chicago Monday night to address the news that she’ll be taking a break after her tour.  She didn’t directly mention the growing concern surrounding her appearance.

But she said her upcoming break is something she planned a long time ago, and is not reactive or impulsive.  Quote, “I heard that my fans were worried that negativity was ruining things for me . . .This is not what that is. Multiple things can be true at the same time: boundaries need to be set, human beings need a break sometimes and also, this can be and will continue to be the greatest experience of my professional and creative life.”

Ariana ended her message assuring fans that nothing will distort her reality or be more real to her than the love they share.  Quote, “This is what I will always take with me and carry with me, because the rest of that [crap] is not mine to carry… And I wanted you to hear that from me.”
