Emotional Ariana Grande Reveals She Had Botox and ‘A Ton’ of Lip Filler
Ariana Grande is opening up about her relationship with beauty.
In a vulnerable video with Vogue for their Beauty Secrets series posted on Tuesday, September 12, the “7 Rings” singer revealed she had botox and “a ton” of lip filler through the years. But she stopped in 2018.
“Being exposed to so many voices at a young age, and especially when people have things to say about your appearance at a young age, it’s really hard to know what’s worth hearing or not,” she explained. “When you’re 17, you don’t really know that yet.
Grande, 30, came into the spotlight as a teenager in 2010 on the Nickelodeon show Victorious, where she played Cat Valentine. Since then, the “Dangerous Woman” singer became a Grammy award winning musician with six studio albums.

“Over the years, I used makeup as a disguise or something to hide behind with more and more hair and more thicker the eyeliner — that can be so beautiful at times and I still do have love for it and appreciation for it,” she said. “But I think as I get older, I don’t love that being the intention behind it anymore.”
Grande recently made headlines when she began dating Wicked costar Ethan Slater after her separation from estranged husband Dalton Gomez in July. The news came after Slater had called it quits with estranged wife Lilly Jay, with whom he shares a 1-year-old son.
While getting visibly emotional in the video, Grande added that, for her, beauty had been about “hiding.” But now she feels like “maybe it’s not.”
