Remember when Ariana Grande changed her ethnicity and thought no one would notice? In Part 2 of 2, we broach the tricky topic of cultural appropriation and decide whether Ari is really guilty of this or not.
Ariana's always in trouble for something, whether it's donut licking and sexist double standards, or accusations of man stealing” and cultural appropriation. But is the backlash fair? Listen and decide for yourself…
We aren't afraid to answer life's difficult questions, like is “Gwyneth Paltrow waging a war on women's vaginas?” “Did Drew Barrymore deserve to be called a scab?” “Does Matty Healy have any talent, or is he just Denise Welch's spoilt son?”
