At Manchester Pride, Ariana Grande Proves Her Strength Once Again

After breaking off her engagement, losing her ex-boyfriend (and close friend), and surviving a terrorist attack at her own concert, Ariana Grande has every reason to be broken and lost. However, she has proved to be the exact opposite.

Opening 2019 with multiple hit singles and now a chart-topping album, Grande has proved to be one of the strongest in the industry. She has received endless criticism but has yet to fall to the level that her criticizers attempt to push her too. Now, as if she needed to prove her strength anymore, it has been announced that she will be the headliner at the 2019 Manchester Pride event.

For most artists, this would not be a big deal, but after the year Grande had — and this being the exact city she survived a terrorist attack in — she couldn't be making a bolder statement. However, no good thing comes without some type of backlash.

According to many reports, the ticket prices of the event have nearly doubled and people are blaming this on Grande's appearance. Many acknowledge her bravery and thank her for her support, but then go on to accuse her of exploiting the event for her own personal gain.

However, as always, Grande handled the chatter with grace and respect as seen in the response below.

She captioned the response, "I saw many people discussing this and wanted to chime in...hope that's okay." Her understanding and patience with the harshness of social media are mature beyond her years and she continues to prove it over and over again.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
