ARIANA Grande and her husband Dalton Gomez have been accused of “mocking” Native American culture in a now-deleted Instagram video.
The deleted video from Ariana, 28, has since resurfaced online and has been shared by various Twitter accounts.
The Victorious actress and her husband Dalton, 25, apparently joined a few of their friends and participated in a Native American dance during the black and white vid.
While sitting at the center of the circle, the Sam and Cat star reportedly sang, laughed, and spun a large piece of cloth around in the air.
The other people in the short video were allegedly whooping and drumming along with her.
The singer and her cohorts received online backlash from upset fans for mocking Native American culture.
One fan tweeted: “After being racist to black ppl by doing CA stuff, to Asians by calling them bots, now to Native Americans by mocking their culture.
Her fake a** needs to be stopped asap.”
Another fan wrote: “Native Americans being told to shut up by Ariana Grande stans after voicing their upset over overtly racist behavior……that is just…….wow…….”
A third person said: “Ariana Grande disrespecting indigenous people’s cultures? Americans have such a long history of dehumanizing Native Americans but shouldn’t we hold those with a platform to a higher standard? Even if it is the bare minimum.”
A fourth commentator chimed in: “THIS SHOULD’VE STAYED IN YOUR DRAFTS:
“Ariana Grande getting backlash for posting and quickly deleting a video that appears to show her, her husband and friends trying to “summon a spirit” during an escape the room outing.
“Some are saying this mocks Native Americans traditions.”
Recently, Ariana locked lips with Dalton in a rare Instagram video on her 28th birthday just weeks after their secret wedding.
In her Instagram Story, the newlyweds were playing with a slinky while the singer wore a fluffy brown hat and a birthday crown.
Last year, Ariana removed Starbucks from her Instagram sometime in June and followed strictly advertised black-owned coffee shops in Los Angeles.
The Grammy winner posted a picture on her Instagram Stories of a cup of coffee from South LA Cafe and captioned it “morning” with a heart.
Celia Ward-Wallace, co-owner of South LA Cafe, told The Sun exclusively how “Ariana’s post has boosted sales.”
“Sales were steady in the last couple weeks because many have been supporting black-owned businesses lately with the Black Lives Matter movement.
We’re so grateful she ditched Starbucks and came to support us.”
Celia emphasized how Ariana’s impact has reached people from all over the world, who have also messaged her business to show their support.
