Ariana Grande Is Taking A Break From Social Media

To avoid “news n stuff”

by Taylor Bryant

Ariana Grande has had quite the week, and it’s only Wednesday. She reportedly called off her engagement and has since given Pete Davidson back her engagement ring. Now, the singer is taking a hiatus from social media.

In a since-deleted Instagram story, Grande said that it was time for her to “say bye bye to the internet for just a lil bit.” She continues, “It’s hard not to bump news n stuff that I’m not tryna to see rn. It’s very sad and we’re all tryin very hard to keep goin.”

She, as well as Davidson, took a break from social media earlier this year, with Grande citing similar reasons: “Just sometimes can’t help but bump into some negative shit that can really bum u out and it’s not worth it honestly.”

On a lighter note, the star also posted some pictures of her getting ready to make her Wicked debut. She posed with Idina Menzel and a gifted Elphaba doll while wearing green lipstick and eyeshadow. One fan took note that she wasn’t wearing her engagement ring.

She wrote on her Instagram story earlier in the day about not letting her anxiety get in the way of enjoying the moment. “Can't believe i almost let my anxiety ruin this for me today !!! not today satan!” she wrote. "Not tomorrow or the next day either not no more u can suck my big green dick. finna sing my heart out and be a big walking vessel of love bye."
