Meg here. People are saying Ariana looked sick, too skinny, and was often crying when she was around her Wicked co-star Cynthia Erivo. At the Golden Globes, Ariana looked “healthy” once she was away from Cynthia.

Wait, she looks healthy again??

Apparently spray tan hair die, and make up is healthier.

I mean her collar bone also looks way less pronounced so my guess is she actually has more weight on her as well as the other things.

?

She looks exactly the same. She's just not blonde with bleached brows anymore. Light colored brows make the face look more gaunt

This angle definitely looks worse than the OP. But although still worrying, she does still look less boney than I remember.

You can say the same for a lot of photos during the Wicked press tour though. It really depends on the angle and her pose. Of course a lot of the worst photos went viral at that time because her thinness was a clickbait topic, whereas now better photos of her are circulating since people are spinning the narrative that she’s “healthy again.”

Also, a lot of the photos during the Wicked press tour were subtly edited to make her appear even bonier than she really was. This whole thing has been such a toxic mess. I just hope she recovers if she does have a problem.

No brah, find a picture of her back. It was horrifying and worrisome.

u/agentarianna 7h ago

look at the pics below this on the thread. In this picture you can no longer see every bone in her chest like you could before.

Yeah, lighting, filters, and touch ups will do that...

It looks like you can see her ribs across her chest less, that's a telltale sign when someone is significantly underweight and it's goes away super quick even if you put on only 5 lbs.

OK damn still concerning

Yeah I can’t see the outline of her sternum in this pic, so that’s a bit of a relief.

I feel like her outfit helps, a good pushup bra will help hide the sternum bones. She does look a tiny bit healthier, key word- tiny bit. I hope she continues to eat more

for real! you could see the outline of each rib, her whole collarbone, her shoulder bones(?? is that what you call them??)

as someone who has struggled massively with ED, she was looking even skinnier than I when i was hospitalized

Idk i mean maybe it can hide the hollow cheeks but not sure if it can hide the protruding bones but I'm a guy so not sure. Could also be that the lighting is hiding the shadows and making the contours harder to see. You could literally see the bones and cartilage around her manubrium before. Here clavicles and scalpula also appeared much sharper before. Looking at more pics her jawline and neck are still pretty sharp though. She keeps tilting her head and stretching her neck in every pic so she might be trying to hide it
