Ariana Grande has read your criticisms of how she uses her sexuality in her music and videos, Internet commenters, and she's tired of it.
Her latest music video, "Dangerous Woman," has plenty of sultry imagery on offer, including a lingerie-clad Grande making eyes at the camera. And if the Facebook comments on the video are any indication, it's too much for some fans -- or at least one in particular.
"Ariana all respect, but 'Dangerous Woman' I loved but the trouble is that in he [sic] video salts like a wh*re," one questionable comment read. "Sorry for the rudeness, I only just said the truth.... SORRY Ariana Grande."
Well, apparently that apology wasn't enough, as Grande herself felt compelled to respond.
"When will people stop being offended by women showing skin/expressing sexuality?" Ariana wrote back on Saturday. "Men take their shirts off/express their sexuality on stage, in videos, on Instagram, anywhere they want to ... all. the. time. the double standard is so boring and exhausting."
"With all due respect, I think it's time you get your head out of your a**," she added. "Woman can love their bodies too!!"
