By now, it is no secret that there is no love between Nickelodeon stars, Jennette McCurdy and Ariana Grande. Their hit comedy show was canceled after one season due to conflict between the two starlets. McCurdy alleges Grande was being paid more money than her leading to a rift on the show and now online. On Jennette’s new web series, “What’s Next For Sarah?” she let fans know exactly how she felt about Ariana on the third episode when a character named “Gloriana” appears. The onslaught begins…she acts like Ariana and is also a vegan singer. Needless to say it was funny, only because of the lengths of Jennette’s antics and the Ariana spoof was dead on.
Beyond her expected tween and teenage and fans, celebrity gossip hound and blogger, Perez Hilton found the episode to be quite a hoot! He and Jennette began a Twitter convo that left a lot of “Arianators” (hardcore Ariana Grande fans, similar to Beyonce’s “Beyhive”) irate. The Tweets went as following:
Perez noted, “It was super funny!!! Can I be in an upcoming episode? I can be #Gloriana’s obnoxious gay brother! Ha”
Jennette responded, “@PerezHilton oh my god yes!! Or gloriana’s boyfriend who gets cheated on 8 times?” Ouch.
Perez fired back: “@jennettemccurdy OMFG!!!!! Too good!!!!! I’m not even joking! Let’s make this happen! P.S. I heard that Gloriana gets around!”
Almost immediately Jennette received tons of hate tweets and a few death ones, for making fun of Ariana’s love life and her brother who in real life is gay reality star, Frankie Grande, currently appearing on Big Brother 16. Unsurprisingly, McCurdy remained unmoved by their attacks simply responding:
“god all this fodder about shade. if you’re so worried about shade, get off your computer & go outside. plenty of sun. #whatsnextforsarah”
Harsh? Definitely! Comments like these are so shady they might as well have been posters for a smear campaign. “Sam & Cat” was a hilarious show and for awhile it seemed the two girls shared a strong and genuine friendship. Then again, who knows what is real in Hollywood. It is after all, all an act.
