Ariana Grande playing herself.


An entitled, shallow, brainless, disrespectful twat.

you sound jealous

reply

Uh.... sure....

reply

Just hysterical with hate and embarrassment that some characters in this movie describes his tribe so completely.

reply

LOL!

reply

What alternate reality are you living in?

reply

I am definitely jealous of her having all those cute dogs.

reply

And she did it so well ...

At least the song was really good, and fun ...

reply

I lol'ed at the "get your head out of your ass. Listen to the goddamn qualified scientists." line!

reply

Very odd that this movie is critcizing celebrity culture and then get someone like her who is part of the problem.

reply

Exacto.

reply

Not at all, some knowingly and willingly chose to go with the flow for the benefits, money, fame, etc.

And some are too dumb to realize that they are mocking themselves.

Not sure in which category AG falls into.

And I think that her presence is an element that enforces the message of the movie, overall.

reply

I think she was too dumb to realize she was being mocked and obviously they probably paid her a lot of money too.

reply

What problem is that?

reply

That we consider celebrities and "influencers" as anything other than cult leaders.

reply

It's not "we".

reply

That might be the joke. Might.

reply

She probably doesn't even realize she was insulting herself.

reply

I don't think so, but for all that anyone holds Holy, I hope she fully understood.

I mean, it's funny as hell if she didn't, I just hope she looked at it all with a bit of distance.

Pretty good satire of the weird celebrity culture we have today. Lotsa "influential"people being famous for being well-known. I mean, it's by no way's a new thing but imagine a socialite in the 50's being as well-known, or more in some cases, than the Hollywood stars of the day? And how seemingly well-sorted people are in to it. To me, that's super weird.

reply

Hysterical much?

reply

No. You?

reply

I thought it was in poor taste for her to sing the line "You're about to die soon everybody" considering what happened at her Manchester concert. I mean I get that she didn't write the script, but she could've and should've objected to that line.

reply

Too soon?

reply

Who else could she play...Mayim Bialik?

reply

Gunga Din.

reply

I'll always respect her for going right back to Manchester to do that benefit concert. That took a lot of guts.

reply

It's all just PR. Don't give her too much respect.
