Ariana Grande bundles up in oversized red coat after Megyn Kelly’s brutal remarks about her weight

by

Ariana Grande wore a bright red coat as she went to a showing of the movie Wicked in New York City on Wednesday.

The 32-year-old actress wore a large, comfortable coat as she went to an AMC Theater, following a day after Megyn Kelly publicly commented on her weight.

She was wearing a black top and pants, completed by black high-heeled boots.

She wore her hair in a stylish updo, and her makeup was natural but emphasized her best features.

The singer, nominated for an Oscar and known for playing Glinda in the upcoming Wicked movies, kindly waved to her fans as she left the theater.

This public appearance follows Kelly’s recent harsh criticism of Granda, where she commented on her weight and also disapproved of Granda’s relationship with Cynthia Erivo, all as part of a broader critique of celebrity life.

In her recent podcast, Kelly criticized the entertainment industry, pointing to Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo as examples of a troubling trend: celebrities becoming dangerously underweight.

‘This industry is not to be admired, certainly not emulated,’ Kelly said.

The podcaster and novelist Andrew Klavan talked about what’s happening now, and why the podcaster decided not to submit her show for a Golden Globe award.

Kelly criticized the public’s obsession with celebrities, specifically calling out Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo for losing weight during and after filming the movie Wicked.

Kelly started by saying, “Let’s see what Ariana Grande is up to. She’s a big star in music and now she’s acting in the movie Wicked. It’s interesting to think about how she got her start on TV with Nickelodeon.”

She appears severely underweight and fragile. At just 90 pounds, she is extremely thin, and her physical condition is deeply concerning.

As a big fan, I’ve been following all the buzz about the amazing connection between Kelly and her ‘Wicked’ co-star! It’s been so fun seeing everyone talk about their chemistry in interviews and during their press tour – they just seem genuinely close, and it’s lovely to watch.

She also mentioned that Ariana Grande seems to be in a strange, possibly romantic, relationship with her co-star Cynthia Erivo, who she noted appears very thin.

Cynthia Erivo has been in a relationship with Lena Waithe since 2022. Ariana Grande began dating her Wicked co-star, Ethan Slater, in 2023.

Kelly’s remarks about the body types and weight loss of the Wicked actresses are part of a wider conversation online, with many social media users voicing worry about the stars’ noticeable physical transformations since they were first cast in the film.

After videos and photos began circulating online, people started commenting on the noticeable weight loss of Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, and Michelle Yeoh, jokingly calling for the release of ‘Wicked’ set photos to explain it.

‘Cynthia looked strong before,’ one commenter said.

‘Ariana has always been a small and petite girl, BUT THIS IS NOT NORMAL,’ another stressed.

One TikTok user commented that Michelle Yeoh’s performance is particularly impressive because she delivers such a strong impact despite not having a massive role in the project.

As a lifestyle expert, I’m really concerned about this trend I’m seeing where incredibly thin bodies are being presented as normal. It’s honestly quite alarming, and I worry about the message it sends to everyone, especially young people.

‘One is odd, two is a coincidence, three is a pattern,’ one pointed out.

Ariana Grande has consistently responded to comments about her body and looks, and has spoken openly about the intense scrutiny women experience.

Oh my god, it just killed me seeing her talk to that reporter on December 5th. She was getting all choked up, and she said something that just… hit me so hard. It was like, she’s heard everything people have said is wrong with her, every single criticism. And no matter what she does to try and improve, to fix things, it’s still not good enough, it’s wrong in some other way! It’s just… it’s so unfair and she’s so perfect, and it breaks my heart that she feels that way.

As someone who really cares about creating a kinder world, I’ve noticed something deeply troubling. We’ve become way too comfortable judging each other – commenting on how people look, what we think their lives are like, or even their health. It feels like we’ve lost the ability to respect personal boundaries and just let people be themselves.

‘It’s not invited, so I don’t leave space for it anymore.’

Last year, when asked about changes to her look, Ariana Grande explained that she was prioritizing a healthier lifestyle.

In a TikTok video, she stated that the body people are now comparing her to was actually when she was at her unhealthiest.

When I was at my lowest point, I was struggling with depression, drinking while on medication, and not taking care of myself. That’s when I looked the way some people now think of as my ‘healthy’ weight. But honestly, that wasn’t a healthy time for me. Everyone’s experience of being healthy is different.
