Ariana Grande has expressed her gratitude to her fans, after another video showing her crying on stage was shared online.
The chart-topping singer is currently on her Sweetener world tour, during which she’s been seen having a tearful moment on stage on several occasions.
After another video was posted over the weekend, Ariana posted a statement on Twitter admitting that she’s “still processing a lot”, but thanked fans for accepting her “humanness”.
In a post that has since been deleted from her account, Ariana wrote: “Tour is wild. Life is wild. I’m grateful for the sea of love I have around me everyday and for the people who come to these shows and give all of us every ounce of energy they’ve got.
“I’m grateful to work with best musicians and dancers in the world. I’m grateful for my voice and my team. I’m grateful for this music. I’m grateful for my tour bus driver, Kurt, who bought me pickles yesterday because he saw we ran out.”
She continued: “I’m grateful for the opportunity to sing to thousands of people every night.
“It’s a dream come true. No matter how hard it gets or how many feelings come up that are screaming at me to be processed and sorted through one day.”
The last two years have been particularly turbulent for Ariana, since the 2017 bombing at her concert in Manchester, which took the lives of 22 people.
A year later, she was left devastated by the death of her ex-boyfriend Mac Miller, which was followed by the breakdown of her relationship with former fiancé Pete Davidson, all of which was addressed on her most recent studio album Thank U Next.
“I feel everything very intensely and have committed to doing this tour during a time in my life when I’m still processing a lot,” she noted in the now-deleted tweets. “So sometimes I cry a lot! I thank you for accepting my humanness.
“I’m not sure what I did to deserve to meet so many loving souls every night/to feel so much love, but I want you to know that it really does carry me through. I feel it and I appreciate it. And all of you so much.”
Back in April, shortly after her world tour began, Ariana revealed she was still struggling with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), revealing scans that showed the physical damage that has been done to her brain in the last few years.
Since then, she’s admitted that touring makes her feel “empty” suggesting that life on the road was not good for her health.
