Bette Midler Apologizes to Ariana Grande for 'Whore' Comment
After calling out the young pop singer for being too sexual, Midler then labels herself "a reformed old whore"
Looks like Ariana Grande and Bette Midler have called a Thanksgiving truce.
Following Midler’s interview with the U.K. Telegraph on Monday – in which the 68-year-old Divine Miss M chided the 21-year-old pop star for being too sexual and said, “You don’t have to make a whore out of yourself to get ahead” – she apologized in vintage Midler style.
“About my screed on @ArianaGrande, all I can say is, ‘Spoken like a reformed old whore!'” Midler Tweeted. “She does have a beautiful voice, on a couch or off.”
Midler’s mea culpa follows a Twitter blitz from Grande, in which she stated Midler had always been a feminist “who stood for women being able to do whatever the F they wanted without judgment! Not sure where that Bette went but I want that sexy mermaid back,” Grande stated alongside a pic she posted of Midler as a mermaid.
On Tuesday, Grande e-hugged Midler, posting two Tweets.
“all love here,” she Tweeted, followed by, “and I will still quote first wives club every single day of my life lmao.”
