Ariana Grande's fans are not happy with what she said about murdered child pageant star JonBenet Ramsey.
Singer Ariana Grande has been called out on social media after making a tasteless comment about child pageant star JonBenet Ramsey, who was murdered in 1996.
Grande's fans took exception to what she'd written and she later issued an apology, saying it was "out of pocket" and that she understoodit was "not at all funny".
Ramsey was just 6 years old when she was found dead in her family's Boulder, Colorado home and the case has still not been solved.
The Twitter drama began when Grande's friend Doug Middlebrook, posted a now-deleted image of Ramsey on the front of a newspaper, with the caption: "No one has done more covers," according to Page Six.
Grande replied to the tweet, writing: "I cant WAIT for this to be your halloween look" and Middlebrook responded with "working on it already".
Fans were quick to slam the comment, with one writing: "Wait WHAT?? an 8-year-old girl who was violently killed, strangled and suffocated cannot be anyone's costume..."

But her apology wasn't sufficient for everyone, with some questioning why she didn't issue one until the inappropriateness of her comment was pointed out.
It’s the fact that she only realised it was wrong after she got called out on it a day later. She didn’t think it was wrong when she hit post and that’s what’s concerning but of course her fans are asking if she’s okay and if she needs a break from Twitter like she’s the victim🙄
