A recent interview with Ariana Grande and Angelina Jolie shed light on how these two stars handle the pressures of beauty standards and public scrutiny. During the interview, Ariana Grande became emotional while addressing body shamers, highlighting the harmful effects of societal beauty expectations.

Ariana opened up about the dangerous comfort people feel when commenting on others’ bodies. She emphasized that no one has the right to judge or comment on someone’s appearance, as such remarks can be damaging. Ariana’s frustration was evident as she spoke about how pervasive and hurtful body shaming can be for everyone involved.

This isn’t the first time Ariana has confronted body-shaming issues. Last year, she took to TikTok to discuss how the body people compare her current self to was the unhealthiest version of herself. Ariana shared that during that time, she was on antidepressants and also drinking, which made her physical and mental health worse. She described herself as being like “a specimen in a Petri dish” since her late teens, illustrating how constant public scrutiny affected her life.

ET first met Ariana in 2011 after her breakout role in Nickelodeon’s Victorious, but her confidence had been apparent much earlier. At just 15 years old, Ariana made her Broadway debut in the musical 13, and she later recorded the original cast album, a sign of her early commitment to her craft. Reflecting on her journey, Ariana noted how far she’s come, mentioning the success of her role in Wicked and its chart-topping soundtrack. She explained that over time, she’s learned to tune out negativity and stay focused on her self-worth. Ariana stressed the importance of protecting oneself from negative comments and expressed gratitude for her confidence in her beauty and abilities.

Switching gears, Angelina Jolie made her first talk show appearance in a decade on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to promote her Oscar-buzzing film Maria, which streams on Netflix. Angelina made quite an entrance, revealing she had broken her toe the day before and was struggling to find a comfortable shoe. She admitted to being nervous about talk shows, joking about how such appearances aren’t her “thing,” showcasing her characteristic honesty and humility.

During the interview, Angelina discussed self-confidence and its fine line with what she described as “a kind of insanity.” She spoke candidly about balancing public life and personal identity, especially as a mother.

Meanwhile, her son Maddox is training to be a pilot and has already achieved that goal, which Angelina seemed incredibly proud of.

Both Ariana and Angelina’s interviews highlight the ongoing struggle celebrities face with beauty standards and public expectations. Ariana’s emotional response to body-shaming reflects a broader conversation about mental health and societal pressures, while Angelina’s openness about her anxieties and her children’s ambitions offers a more personal glimpse into life as a Hollywood icon. Their candidness provides fans with both inspiration and reassurance that even the most successful stars grapple with self-image and confidence.
