Ariana Grande Responds To Elvira’s Accusations Of Rude Behavior: ‘I’m Disheartened’

Ariana Grande is responding to Cassandra “Elvira” Peterson’s accusations that she had a bad experience with the pop star. In a now-viral video, Peterson claimed the singer had requested tickets to an Elvira show for her friends and family but rejected Peterson’s request to get a photo together after Peterson took pictures and signed autographs for Grande’s guests. Grande commented on Peterson’s Instagram days later, saying, “I’m so disheartened to see this,” explaining she had an anxiety attack at the time. The Grammy winner said the incident happened seven years ago, indicating the interaction came soon after the Manchester Arena bombing at one of Grande’s concerts which left 22 people dead. The 31-year-old has previously opened up about dealing with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder because of the tragedy.
