It’s Ariana Grande vs a popular drag queen in this fight wore it better
What’s up guys it’s Emile Ennis Jr. here with Clevver News and you remember a few days ago when we told you that Ariana was suing Forever 21 for using her image and likeness? Well Farrah Moan is now accusing Ari of doing the same thing.
Farrah, a drag queen from season 9 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, made a public statement that Ariana copied one of her looks from this past season of ‘All Stars.’
She said on Twitter, “Ariana should give me a cut of that 10M since her team literally sent a pic of me to the designer and paid them to copy my look from as4.”
That look in question is the one that Ari wore in her 7 rings video
And it IS one of Farrah’s signature looks
That and
Farrah continued her statement by saying “I guess stealing from queer artists for profit is fine tho”
She doubled down on her claims in a series of tweets following this, where she explains that she met Ariana’s designer, a local drag queen, who was given a photo of Farrah and told to copy her look directly
Farrah said “I don’t fault the designer because the designer she hired was a local queen and paid them A LOT of money to do it, money they couldn’t turn down. And then was honest with me about it. So no, I don’t fault the drag queen that made it at all. Ariana has COIN.”
Some people argued that the looks aren’t exactly the same, and Farrah was quick to point out that the only thing missing was some chandelier crystals on her hips because “Ariana couldn’t have laid down on the counter with the amount of detailing mine had”
Of course, the 7 Rings video came out months ago, so why bring it up now?
Well, Farrah had an answer for that too.
She said “I wasn’t gonna even say anything or care because I was actually flattered by it and I’ve known for MONTHS but now it’s kinda getting to me since she’s just racking in millions over it”
She’s referring to that 10 million dollar lawsuit that Ariana recently filed against Forever 21.
And after posting this gif making fun of 7 Rings, she said
“the main people at fault here are her team. If that queen didn’t recreate it, they woulda found someone who would. When your team makes a mistake, it falls on you….You can attack me all day but it’s not gonna change anything. I don’t care about suing anyone, just needed to put this out there
And again, Ari’s fans pointed out a bodysuit she wore in 2014 that looks sort of similar to the ones that Farrah wears
Which, sure, neither of them invented body suits
BUT if it’s true that her team showed the designer a picture of Farrah, even if Ari was unaware at the time, I still think they’re a little at fault here
So there’s only one way to settle this: Ari, have Farrah Moan in your next music video. It’ll be good press for the both of ya
Meanwhile, Frankie Grande has chimed in. He spoke with ET at a red carpet last night and when asked about Ariana dealing with all of this drama, he said, “Listen, there’s always drama. And it’s just whether or not you’re going to dial into that particular element or whether you’re going to stay above it and like rise above it and just like you know reign supreme. And that’s what I feel like she’s doing.”
Well we know how he feels about the situation, but now it’s time for you to chime in. Do you think Ari’s team stole Farrahs look? Or is it just a coincidence? Would a local designer put their name on the line if they weren’t absolutely certain? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below
