3 hours ago The News Room

American pop star Ariana Grande is planning to take a break from public life after intense public scrutiny over her physical appearance and health.

Speculation increased after the music video of her song Petal was released late last week.

Dr Inge Gnatt from Swinburne University says while fans’ concerns seem to be coming from the right place, it’s wrong to speculate on her wellbeing when we don’t have details.
