Changes: Frankie Grande

Latest revision as of 13:11, 26 January 2024

The Ariana Grande Wiki fandom acknowledges that Frankie Grande did partake in black face, however, due to the significant part that Frankie plays in Ariana Grande's personal life, we have decided to keep the page up. Thank you for understanding. If you have any further questions, please contact our administration.

Blackface is putting on makeup to mock black people for natural features they can’t control. For more information on the historical significance of it, please take the time to look it up.
