Look at Ariana Grande’s music video just a few days ago. Lots of darkness and occult imagery being pushed online these days.

We all should,” wrote another user.“Perez Hilton posted a lot about Ariana Grande and then he ends up covered in blood just like Ariana’s recent music video…This is more than just a coincidence.
