Ariana Grande’s message to Paige Niemann
In her new documentary series, titled Turning the Paige, released on Apple TV, Paige Niemann shared a rare personal DM she received from Ariana Grande back in 2019, when one of her videos went viral online.
The clip showed Niemann dressed as the Wicked actress’s Nickelodeon character Cat Valentine.
In the message, Grande penned, "I am flattered and i am sure you’re very sweet. but i just wanted you to know, i looked back a little ways on your page and i think someone should tell you if they haven’t today that you’re very beautiful as YOURSELF.”
“Without all the make up and trying to make your face look more similar to someone else’s and whatnot. i had to say it because it is the truth. always do what makes you happy of course but if i didn’t say that to you, i’d regret it. you’re beautiful as you are. take care,” it added.
