‘We All Sang!’ Victoria Justice Exposes Death Threats Over Viral Ariana Grande Meme
Buckle up, buttercups, because your aunt’s jittery brain just got wind of a meltdown worthy of Hollywood’s highlight reel! Victoria Justice—yes, our forever-teen-icon from Zoey 101—recently opened up about an Instagram meme that backfired spectacularly when some Ariana Grande superfans went full-blown threat mode. In a can’t-miss chat with Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live (via People Magazine), Justice recalled posting a harmless TikTok sound clip of everyone belting out an Ariana hook and captioning it with her now-infamous refrain: “We did all sing, OK?” Cue the digital carnage.
According to Entertainment Tonight, the Zoe Valentine herself did not expect the meme—intended as a cheeky nod to Grande’s vocal chops—to ignite a wave of vicious direct messages, some including literal death wishes. Victoria, ever the pro, said she first laughed it off, then watched her notifications explode into “questionable fan mail.” She admitted, “At one point, I was like, should I delete my whole account?” But she took a deep breath, fact-checked her own intentions (“I was singing along—what’s the crime?”), and decided to stick around online.
Sources report that Justice even reached out to Ariana’s camp to clear the air, receiving a supportive thumbs-up from a rep. (No official Ariana-into-Victoria meltdown—phew!) But the incident still underscores social media’s razor edge: one minute you’re vibing to “thank u, next,” the next you’re fielding harassment because someone misreads sarcasm as shade.
Victoria used the experience to spotlight a bigger issue: fandom toxicity. On Cohen’s couch, she went on record urging fans to channel their passion into positivity—maybe a duets trend next time instead of a digital witch hunt. People Magazine quoted her saying, “We all grew up together! We sang that Ariana note in chorus—so why are we at war over nostalgia?” Touché.
And if you think Justice’s TikTok troubles have faded, think again! She teased that her next post might be a full-on lip-sync extravaganza, daring the internet to handle another dose of fun, not fury. Will Ariana herself jump in? Only time will tell—and auntie here is already over-caffeinated just imagining the sequel.
Hang onto your frappes, because between niche fandom feuds and superstar mea culpas, this saga is far from over. Just remember: we all sang, OK? And next time someone slides into your DMs with threats, maybe offer them a latte instead. I swear, I could talk about this all day.
