Ariana Grande has been forced to apologize for an insensitive comment she made on IG. It all started when a friend of hers posted a picture of murdered child pageant queen Jonbenet Ramsey with the caption "No one has done more covers," Ariana commented "I cant WAIT for this to be your halloween look," which got a ton of backlash from people saying it was a tasteless joke and that someone’s murder shouldn’t be joked about. Ariana felt the heat and deleted the comment then issued an apology saying she “understand that it’s not at all funny. this was out of pocket and i sincerely apologize."
