Vocal sensation Ariana Grande has hit out at people who tear each other down on social media sites after a video of her performing with Nicki Minaj at the NBA All-Star Game Halftime Show was made fun of by strangers on Instagram. 

The clip, which shows the two superstars dancing on stage together, was ripped to shred by random users who criticised Grande for having a lack of 'booty' and poked fun at her tiny frame.

She slammed them by publicly posting in the comments section and asked why people think it's acceptable to remark upon other people's body types: "[People] are so ignorant sometimes. Stop trying to make people feel badly about their bodies. It's okay to be different... to be curvy or to be thin. When did it become socially acceptable to comment on what you think is ‘wrong’ with other people's bodies?“

The beauty continued: "We were having fun! Dancing on stage. ‘What's she shaking tho???’ I'm shaking my pretty, cute, petite ass next to Nicki's pretty big booty. Both are f**king awesome. How about we respect people's body boundaries and encourage each other to feel like a babe no matter how they are? That [would] be nice. So tired of watching everyone try to tear each other down."
