Ariana Grande left fans concerned due to her "unrecognizable look" in her new TikTok video.

The pop star has been the subject of damaging buzz as the public grew concerned about her body and weight. Several photos and videos of Grande went viral over the past months as fans theorized that the singer might be suffering from anorexia or other weight-related disorder.

Is Ariana Grande Sick?

Ariana Grande, 29, recently shared a new video on TikTok to promote cosmetic brand R.E.M. Beauty's newest item, At the Borderline Eyeliner Marker. She showed her fans how she creates her winged eyeliner look using the product.

The "Thank U, Next" hitmaker recorded the clip while at home, wearing a spaghetti-strapped tank top which highlighted her petite physique. She also set her ponytail high, which made her neck and facial features clearly visible.

While Grande has been known for that type of build, some fans expressed concerns over Grande's health as they believed she looked "paler" and "thinner" than usual. The Sun also cited a thread on Twitter where fans voiced out how the singer began looking like she was "AI generated."

Others spoke about Grande looking different in every picture and video she shares; some said she looked better than before.

Still, most of the fans defended the singer and asked others to support her like they always used to, saying that they should be open about her adjustment.

"If you're a true Arianator you know how much this means that she's comfortable showing us her front side of her face, like ever since positions she's just been on this journey and it's beautiful," one said, calling her "princess."

Prior to the release of the clip, Grande already sparked concerns when new paparazzi photos emerged earlier this year. After it garnered inappropriate comments, she took to TikTok and responded to her critics.

Ariana Grande Responds to Body Shamers

In a TikTok video on April 11, she recorded a message to all body shamers and those who were concerned about her body. She shared with fans how everyone could be gentler whenever they try to comment on someone else's body.

Grande revealed to her followers that the body everyone had been comparing her current physique to was "the unhealthiest version" of her body since she was still taking antidepressants and eating poorly at that time.

After sharing her story, she reminded everyone watching that they are beautiful "no matter what weight" and no matter what they are going through.
