Grande said she chose to express herself as she did because she leads a healthy lifestyle and is upset with “how freely we as Americans eat and consume things without giving any thought to the consequences.”

Things like celebrity gossip.

"Emergency oral surgery"? Really?

That's up there on the level of a friend I worked with who phoned in to say he'd be late for work "because I've just had s heart attack"!

"Emergency oral surgery"... to remove her foot from her mouth (and/or brightly coloured icing).

As for why I cannot be at the MLB show, I have had emergency oral surgery and due to recovery I cannot attend the show,”

I wonder if this is connected to having those donuts LOL!!!

“That being said let me once again apologize if I have offended anyone with my poor choice of words.”

I don't know her music at all... does this statement cover that too or is her music not that bad?

Come next summer, she'll probably be promoting the darn food all over Japan.

She's pretty huge in the US. She was on two kids TV shows, then became a pop star after that. She's a pretty big pop star now.

I came into this article thinking something else after reading the title.

Not a fan of her music but she is pretty cute. Sometimes though, she looks like a kid then I feel guilty for calling her cute.

She has no talent and used a popular Rap artist to get well known then dropped him!!! I wouldn't buy her songs!

I can somewhat believe her. When she said she hated America, they probably took it out of context. I do that about how spoiled we have it here compared to other countries, yet some people get in trouble for stupid reasons thinking they have it tough....first world problems. Of course, I don't mean to deny them of their problems are not real, too.

She was probably criticizing how we should be more conscientious about our diet if we're not in the best of shape. That, I agree.

Licking donuts......Um, NO!.

Even if they didn't lick the donuts, I don't want to buy an open product that someone's nose hovered over. And if she did lick donuts.....

A simple self-centered whore of celebrity missing half her brain.

Ariana is well known to the younger crowd. She's headlining Summer Sonic (i think) couple months ago bought me daughter and her pal a pair of tickets for that show.

If she said this in a private moment wuth her friend why was it on video?? does this really warrant a police investigation? On the basis of "an eye for an eye" could send the shop owner round hers to lick an item from her pantry.....

Don't think regular fines work. Income-based fines for people and corporations would get the point across better as $500 fine fot poor person means no rent and a $500 fine for rich person means they grab "a few pennies" from their piggy bank. This system is set up in Scandinavian countries already and works.

She should definitely have to pay for all doughnuts at the store and be forced to be janitor/dishwasher for a month at that store for her abhorrent behaviour. I don't care for doughnuts myself but my parents taught me not to do stuff like that when I was 2. How old is she?

Yep. Income-based fines can be incredible. Some Swedish bloke was fined over £530,000 for speeding a while ago.

Here is an example to the frustration that the Left feels whenever other people freely chose to live their lives differently than the way they believe they should. This is what drives President Obama and his supporters to fundamentally change America from a nation that sought to tolerate the different choices of each individual. They only love America when Americans eat what they believe they should eat, say what they believe they should say, and believe what they say they should believe. It is the exact opposite of America's founding ideal thus requiring Obama's fundamental transformation.

Wow, living in the bubble are you? The guy who is critical of tolerating the choice of individuals - gay marriage - of how the president who supported gay marriage is making the world less tolerant. Hypocritical at best. Absolutely clueless at worst.

I had no idea who Ariana Grande was until it became public knowledge that Grande had been caught by several survelience cameras, acting like a pig in public. Who would ever think it was a good idea to lick other peoples food? She's 22 years old and apparently too stupid to understand basic health concerns.

It appears that Grande just can't stop lying. She didn't apologise for licking the donuts. She apologised for not knowing there were security cameras in the shop that would record her actions. Why was she in a donut shop? According to reports, it was to buy six donuts. Now she claims she was fighting obesity. Fighting obesity by licking other peoples food? No one knows where Grande's mouth has been. Is it her intention to fight obesity by make other people sick?

Police, and public health officials, are investigating the incident. Health codes say that foodstuffs like donuts, sandwiches, etc. should be covered, or behind glass, while on display. The donut shop will probably be subjected to a fine, and have it's health code rating lowered.

Ariana Grande's rating as a thinking human being has also been lowered.

I don;t think ET and other gossip TV daily sbows ever had her any stories in past. They are more intereated in private and romance of stars. Currently Bill Cosby stories, So she had to rick to get into the circuit. Unlike others who do good cause to get publicity, she did this. People remember someone ricked and don;t remember the name on yalk show interviews
