Controversial personality Andrew Tate has sparked outraged over his “disgusting” comments regarding singer Ariana Grande.
The self-proclaimed misogynist copped widespread backlash on Wednesday after he made “vile” and “dangerous” remarks about the 31-year-old pop star’s appearance.
“I’m sorry Ariana Grande you’re too skinny and I would no longer f**k you. Access denied,” he tweeted, before adding another comment on a post of the Wicked star, saying she “looks like a crack h*e”.
The internet fired up over the 38-year-old’s comments, swiftly coming to Grande’s defence.
“This is the most disrespectful and disgusting tweet I’ve seen today,” one user tweeted on X, while another commented, “It’s not okay to say this; you have no idea what damage and insecurity it can cause. Women are much more than just their appearance. Keep these statements to yourself.”
“She’s more famous than you, has more money, more success, has an amazing reputation, and hasn’t been to jail,” another added, as one wondered, “Why do men think it’s ok to comment on women’s bodies?”
And the comments went on:
“Access denied ??? nobody asked for it in the first place.”
“Ariana Grande wouldn’t touch you with a ten-foot pole.”
“Brother she don’t know you.”
Despite the onslaught, Tate – a former kickboxer – doubled down on his comments about Grande in a follow-up tweet shared on Friday after he was approached for comment by the media.
In his new tweet, he once again took a swipe at her body.
“Why does the main stream media keep contacting me for comment? Have I not been clear?” he tweeted.
“I’m sorry Ariana I will not offer you a chance with the Top G until you eat some hamburgers. You currently do not stand a chance with me. I hope this clarification helps.
GOODDAY!”
Tate eventually issued a statement to BBC, of which he proudly posted on X.
“I’ve decided not to pursue a relationship with Ariana at this moment in time, I hope she understands,” he told the outlet.
Tate is no stranger to controversy. The social media influencer was arrested in 2022 in Romania on suspicion of rape, human trafficking and forming an organised crime group to sexually exploit women, all of which he has strongly denied.
In recent weeks, he caught the ire of Aussie radio host Amanda Keller over his “misogynistic” tweet describing Melania Trump following the inauguration of her husband, US President Donald Trump.
“Only real men can appreciate how perfectly balanced Trumps relationship is Melania,” Tate tweeted back in January.
“She’s never talking alot. No opinions. Never trying to get trumps attention. She’s not trying to get noticed by media or be the star.”
Tate added that the First Lady “is quiet and obedient and watches [Trump] win” and
“THATS A REAL WOMAN”.
“It’s sad not many other men even notice this because they’re so busy being homosexual ‘best friends’ with their wife,” he concluded.
In the days that followed, Keller took to her breakfast show with Brendan “Jonesy” Jones to blast Tate and his views.
“I wouldn’t ever comment on this guy unless he was this giant influence,” she said on-air at the time. “I do not approve of the things he says, but he has such an influence over young men.”
“And you’re saying it’s all the neck tattoo stuff. It’s beyond that,” she added. “It is young guys in general. It is not our image of toxic guys who are listening to him. It’s young guys in general who are hearing his toxic message. And this is because, well, we all know this. Young men are looking. And I’m a mum of two boys.”
“Everyone wants strong, masculine male role models. But this toxic guy has stepped into the void. They need role models who are strong, who aren’t this,” she concluded.
