Ariana Grande, 31, thanks ‘Botox and Juvederm’ while accepting rising star award
Ariana Grande thanked “Juvederm and Botox” while accepting her rising star award at the Palm Springs Film Festival in California on Friday.
“You don’t know how much it means to me,” Grande gushed after being invited to the stage by Jennifer Coolidge, per People.
“I’ve been performing since I was a child, so I never thought at the age of 31 I would be hearing the words ‘rising star’ again, so I wanted to start by thanking my two friends: Botox and Juvederm.”
The “Wicked” star humorously added, “I thought I’d be hearing ‘slightly withering star’ or ‘drooping star’ by now so thank you.”
In 2023, she confirmed she had routinely gotten Botox and lip fillers when she was younger, but claimed to have stopped in 2018.
“[It was] too much. I just felt like hiding,” she explained.
Grande further opened up about the beauty procedures she has and hasn’t received in September 2024 while taking a polygraph test led by her “Wicked” co-star, Cynthia Erivo.
During the test, she denied getting a nose job, a chin implant and a breast augmentation. While she also said she never had a facelift, she confirmed that she’s “open” to one.
She additionally denied receiving a Brazilian Butt Lift.
“That wouldn’t work for me. I don’t think that’s my thing and I’m okay with that you know?” she explained.
During the test, the “We Can’t Be Friends” singer once again stated that she received fillers and Botox “in various places” but reconfirmed she halted such treatments years prior.
During her acceptance speech for her rising star award on Friday, Grande called Erivo, 37, her “brilliant sister” and described “Wicked” director Jon M. Chu as their “fearless leader.”
Other honorees from Friday’s event include Angelina Jolie, Nicole Kidman, Timothée Chalamet and more.
Kidman teared up during her acceptance speech for the international star award as she dedicated it to her late mother, who died in September.
