Songstress Ariana Grande has defended her recent comments about being objectified by a fan and explained that no woman should ever be made to feel like she is 'inviting disrespect' because of how she presents herself in her art. 

Earlier this week, the 'Into You' star slammed a young male fan for talking about her inappropriately and as if she wasn't there in front of her boyfriend Mac Miller, and she has now reiterated her point in a series of Twitter posts shared last night. 

"Seeing a lot of, "but look how you portray yourself in videos and in your music! you're so sexual!" .... please hold.. next tweet... I repeat. Expressing sexuality in art is not an invitation for disrespect!!! Just like wearing a short skirt is not asking for assault."

She continued: "Women's choice. ♡ our bodies, our clothing, our music, our personalities..... sexy, flirty, fun. It is not. an open. invitation. You are literally saying that if we look a certain way, we are yours to take. But we are not !!! It's our right to express ourselves."
