Ariana Grande has a few words for fans who post selfies with her: Please don’t crop yourself out!
On Sunday morning, the “Side to Side” singer posted an Instagram story telling fans that she always loves getting to meet them in person, but it makes her “sad” when they cut themselves out of photos with her, or use emoji to hide their beautiful faces.
“You show me so much unconditional love all the time no matter what TF I look like,” she wrote. “You deserve to show yourselves that same kindness. Please learn to give that to yourselves! You will get there and you deserve it and I love you the very same way!”
It didn’t take long for her followers to get the memo. Within minutes, fans of all ages, races, and genders started posting photos of themselves under #SelfiesForAriana, thanking the pop star for giving them confidence.
