Ariana Grande’s musical prowess is once again in the spotlight as her latest track, “Yes, And?” claims the No.1 position on both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. US charts. Set to be part of her upcoming seventh album, “Eternal Sunshine,” slated for release on March 8, the song’s success is accompanied by a wave of controversy.
While the Grammy winner’s chart-topping achievement is celebrated, sections of the internet have raised eyebrows at Ariana Grande’s response to critics of her romance with Ethan Slater. Conservative commentator Candace Owens, on her podcast, expressed disapproval, accusing Grande of celebrating what she deemed to be home-wrecking capabilities. Owens criticized Ariana, stating, “Yes, I took your husband, took the father of your children, and so what?”
Owens further voiced her objection, emphasizing a desire to expose what she characterized as Ariana’s objectionable behavior. “We don’t want to picture you sleeping with Ethan Slater. We want to acknowledge, the general public, that her behavior is absolute filth. We just want to be able to read you for the trash that you are.”
The contentious lyrics from the track in question go as follows: “Your business is yours and mine is mine, why do you care so much whose —- I ride?”
As Ariana Grande continues to dominate the charts with “Yes, And?” from her upcoming album, the controversy surrounding her response to critics adds an additional layer of discussion and critique to the singer’s latest musical endeavor. The intersection of success and controversy reflects the intricate dynamics of the entertainment industry and the public’s varied responses to artistic expression.
