Ariana Grande Explains Justin Bieber Kiss Pic: I Didn't Want to Post It Because of the Drama!!

Beliebers and Ariana´s fans got riled up after singer Ariana Grande posted a photo of herself getting a peck on the cheek from Justin Bieber—and that's exactly why she didn't want to post the photo in the first place.

During an All Access interview with fans on MTV, Grande gave the audience the 411 on that whole situation, and went a little something like this:

I went to meet and greet with my grandparents, because my nonna has a massive crush on Justin Bieber, so I went and our fans...I think they trended #JustinandArianaSelfie or something like that. So I was like, 'We have to do this,' and Justin was like, ‘Yeah, let's take a picture.'

So, I took my phone and I went like this [gestures selfie] and I was just smiling, and he kissed me on the cheek. I didn't know what to do. I just walked out of the room. I got shy. Justin wanted to make sure that photo was posted on the social media sites.

Then Scooter [Braun] came after me and was like, 'Justin says you have to post that picture.' I was like, 'I will not.' And he was like, 'He says you have to post that picture.' And I said, 'I can't,' and he asked why not and I was like 'because I don't want the drama that's going to come with it.'

@ArianaGrande: @justinbieber you´re crazy and nonna says thank you, she loves you

Clearly, Ariana wasn't being irrational, but at one point, she posted the picture above, anyway.

Then, Justin tweeted me, ‘Post that pic.' So, I just did it, but everyone was like, ‘Oh my gosh a kiss on the cheek. I'm like, can you not?' Come on!

She seemingly deleted it later on. Regardless, the twitpic was quite the hit: Within three hours, it had been retweeted 27,300 times. After taking the snapshot down, she wrote:

Everyone, girls are allowed to be friends with guys. I'm a lady. Chill out.

People should definetly come down, the pic was harmless and it has nothing to do with Ariana breaking up with her boyfriend as people would think. There is nothing wrong with them hanging out so fellow Beliebers who were being hysterical, please calm down.
