Ariana Grande’s recent appearance at the 2025 BAFTA Film Awards sparked concern among fans over her noticeable weight loss. Many took to social media to describe the 31-year-old pop star as “terribly thin” and “scarily skinny,” with some speculating she may be struggling with an eating disorder.
While Grande hasn’t addressed the comments, the discussion highlights the intense pressure female celebrities face to maintain unrealistic beauty standards. Dr. Patrick Wanis, a behavioral expert, noted that fans often form emotional attachments to stars like Grande, making physical changes feel more dramatic.
Wanis explained that the mix of nostalgia, beauty ideals, and social media fuels public obsession with celebrity appearances. Fans, while worried, have expressed a desire for Ariana to prioritize her health and well-being.
As concern grows, many hope Grande is taking care of herself—and will continue to thrive both personally and professionally.
