Ariana Grande recently addressed plastic surgery rumors in an installment of Vanity Fair’s Lie Detector Test series. The 31-year-old singer and actress denied having various cosmetic procedures, including a Brazilian butt lift, nose job, breast augmentation, face lift, fox eye lift, and chin implant. Grande stated that the only cosmetic procedures she has had are fillers in various places and Botox, which she stopped getting four years ago. She also expressed support for those who choose to undergo such procedures. In a 2023 episode of Vogue Beauty Secrets, Grande mentioned that she had stopped getting cosmetic injectables.
I vividly remember the heartfelt words shared by the 30-year-old founder of R.E.M. Beauty as she prepared to apply color to her lips. She candidly expressed her journey with cosmetic procedures, sharing that she had undergone numerous lip filler treatments and Botox injections over the years. However, in 2018, she made the decision to discontinue these procedures, feeling that they had become excessive and made her feel like she was hiding behind a facade.
Tears welled up in her eyes as she revealed that, for a significant period of time, she had used makeup as a way to conceal herself. Admitting to using makeup as a disguise, she spoke about how she would pile on more makeup, thicker eyeliner, and more hair, acknowledging the beauty in it while also expressing her evolving perspective on it.
While expressing her support for those who opt for plastic surgery, she emphasized her personal desire to embrace her natural aging process, expressing a wish to see her “well-earned cry lines and smile lines” deepen over time. She concluded by expressing a hopeful sentiment, wishing for her smile lines to become more pronounced as she experiences more joy, and emphasizing the beauty she sees in aging.
