Ariana Grande is facing more speculation about her health and beauty, this time, with fans focusing more on her face.
The Wicked star is once again at the center of online theories about her appearance, with viral photos and videos prompting some fans to wonder whether she may still be using cosmetic treatments. The renewed chatter comes despite the pop star previously opening up about her decision to stop using lip fillers and Botox, saying that she had gotten to a point where the injectables felt like “too much” and that she wanted to embrace her natural features. Now, some social media users are pointing to what they believe are changes in her lips and skin. Read more about the buzzing photos and clips below.
Recent Ariana Grande Photos Have Fans Questioning Her Appearance
Recent videos and photos of the “petal” singer have gone viral on social media amid new online conversations surrounding her, with some fans keeping a close eye on her appearance.
Recently, users have pointed to what they perceive as fuller-looking lips and exceptionally smooth skin, making them wonder whether she could have undergone some type of cosmetic treatment. New photos and videos from Ariana’s latest Wicked filming and promotional era, as well as more recent Instagram selfies, have fans debating whether the differences in her appearance are from makeup, lighting, filters, or something more.
The speculation comes as the Grammy-winner has faced plenty of public discussion about her appearance in recent years, especially when it comes to her weight and physical well-being. She has previously spoken openly about the pressure she’s felt to maintain a certain image in Hollywood, and is even taking a ‘step back’ from public appearances following the recent conclusion of her Eternal Sunshine tour.

Fans Speculate Ariana Had More Cosmetic Work Done
After seeing the photos and videos of the 33-year-old on various platforms, users began chiming in on what they think she's done to her face.
"She looks insane here," a Reddit user wrote under a Wicked behind-the-scenes video shoot. "Didn't she say she quit fillers a few prior to this video?"
"What is this chin?" asked another. "I've seen many protruding chins in real life, but this doesn't look natural?"
"What's wrong with her mouth?" one user asked, with another chiming in, "She 100% still gets lip filler."
"Maybe there's also some Botox paralyzing the surrounding muscles, which could add to the strange look," a user speculated.
"It's giving Donald Duck," wrote another.
The latest speculation also has fans reminiscing about Ariana's September 2023 episode of Vogue's "Beauty Secrets," where she became emotional while discussing her history with Botox and fillers, explaining that she had used them because she felt she was "hiding" behind them. She said she ultimately decided to stop and that she wanted to embrace signs of aging, including her "well-earned" smile and expression lines.
In January 2025, she told Entertainment Tonight that she was still "four years clean" from the treatments after joking about cosmetic injectables during an awards speech.
