Ariana Grande gets smacked in face by Victoria’s Secret model’s wings
Petite Ariana Grande briefly turned into runway roadkill during the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show taping in London on Tuesday.
The diminutive “Bang Bang†singer, who performed along with fellow honorary angel Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran and Hozier at the lingerie giant’s annual panty parade, shared the snafu Wednesday on Twitter.
“a Victoria’s Secret angel accidentally smacked me in the face with her wings and it was awesome #goals #bangbangintomyface,†the 21-year-old Nickelodeon alum joked.
Grande sang during the show’s PINK segment as models wearing massive angel wings stomped the stage during the glittery show. The angel assailant was Elsa Hosk, whose pink graffiti wings came at Grande and resulted in the singer cowering on the runway.
The “Problem†singer said she also got stuck between a model and a feathery place during dress rehearsals.
“Was so nervous / excited at dress rehearsal i almost walked face first into an Angel’s wings and died lmao oops. (only me..... ever....),†Grande wrote on Instagram. “... Again so excited to be here @victoriassecret thank you.â€
The 5-foot-tall songstress, whose knee-high boots did little to elongate her frame, was acutely aware that those heavenly bodies towered over her too.
“fact: I had to stand on top of my publicist’s back in order to be seen in this photo,†Grande wrote on Instagram, captioning a massive group photo in which she’s barely visible save her throwing her arms in the air.
The mishap is likely to be cut out of the telecast, which airs Dec. 9 on CBS.
Love her harder, indeed. Follow me on Twitter @NardineSaad.
