Fans of Ariana Grande are angry about a video that has gone viral and has come back up on Twitter. The video is a collection of scenes from the Nickelodeon show “Victorious” where Ariana Grande talks directly to the camera. Fans have said that these scenes are very sexualized and take advantage of the young pop star’s naivety.
The post, originally from Khalia, said,
everyone keeps bringing Ariana Grande for stan drama against Jennette, and idk why. let’s not forget, Ariana is a victim herself of the creepiness of Dan Schneider. this is why she doesn’t talk about the role of cat valentine anymore. they sexualized and infantilized her.

In the video, Ariana Grande can be seen sucking her toe, moaning while squeezing a potato, laying upside down on the edge of the bed, and pouring water on her face and chest. At one point, she also puts her finger in her mouth.
Fans were furious, and one of them said,
This is absolutely disgusting. As an adult watching this right now you can tell EXACTLY what they were doing. I hope she speaks on it, people will definitely support her. But understand exactly why she doesn’t give how they treat people who do.
All of this is happening at the same time that ICarly star Jennette McCurdy’s memoir,
I’m Glad My Mom Died
which tells how the Nickelodeon studio and Dan Schneider mistreated the child actress when she was young.

When asked online if the Nickelodeon shows mistreated children, Schneider said the claims were “ridiculous” and that his style of comedy was “totally innocent.”
McCurdy also said that before she left Nickelodeon studios for good, they offered her $300,000 to keep quiet about how badly they treated her and her coworkers.

It looks like Nickelodeon has been trying to hide its shame for a long time, but you can only talk about feet so many times before people start to find it weird.
