A Slender Appearance

Ariana Grande shocked fans during an appearance on the Wicked red carpet in November, as her petite figure appeared slenderer than ever.

Various TikTok videos emerged of the “One More Time” singer posing next to her co-stars, Cynthia Erivo and Jonathan Bailey, and sparked concerns that she has lost a considerable amount of weight.

Fans were quick to express worries about her prominent collarbone, gaunt cheeks, slim shoulders, and visible sternum, with many fearing for her health.

One TikTok user commented, “I love Ariana, and I don’t think people should comment on other people’s bodies at all, but there’s no way you can look at her and not think she’s not healthy.”

Dr. Dennis Schimpf, a South Carolina plastic surgeon, recently stated her vegan diet could have caused her recent weight loss, as she may have a protein deficiency that has resulted in noticeable changes in her appearance.

He stated vegan diets can result in muscles wasting away, leaving only “skin and bone” behind.

He said, “Often people who are strict vegans have to take significant protein supplements or add protein powders to their smoothies.”

Many people have expressed concern about her paler complexion, too, which Dr Schimpf believes could stem from her veganism.

He added, “Pale skin can be indicative of nutritional stress. Although, honestly, it’s hard to assess in celebrities. They’re not ever photographed completely untouched or without makeup or bronzer or some kind of concealer on their skin.”

However, various media outlets have hinted that Ariana Grande might be using Ozempic, an anti-obesity injection which is becoming more frequently used in Hollywood.

Ethan Slater Feels Helpless

According to recent reports, Ethan Slater, Ariana Grande’s boyfriend and Wicked co-star, is “concerned” for her health and feels powerless to help her.

Also, another source stated people in her close circle are aware of her weight loss but are hesitant to discuss it with her.

Yet, they believe her image could have a negative impact on the young, impressionable girls who look up to her.

A Sign of Health Issues

Many health experts have stated that gaunt cheeks and a visible sternum in adulthood are typically signs of various health conditions, such as lipoatrophy (fat tissue loss) or malnourishment.

Muscles and bones surrounding the chest area often become more prominent when losing weight, creating a much slimmer appearance.

The Pressures of Wicked

Many fans suspect the singer’s grueling schedule has impacted her weight and health. During a recent interview with the New York Times, Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo suggested they had experienced intense schedules during Wicked‘s production.

Cynthia Erivo even expressed they were grateful for the actors’ strike in the summer of 2023, as it forced them to rest and recover from many hours of filming.

According to Erivo, “At first, it felt like an interruption, and then as it went on, it felt like the rest we needed. We worked ourselves to the bone. I was really grateful.”
