Ariana Grande pleaded with fans to stop sending “hateful messages” to the “people in [her] life following the Friday release of her newest album, “Eternal Sunshine.”
The star posted an Instagram story Saturday imploring her fans.
“I just wanted to say anyone that is sending hateful messages to the people in my life based on your interpretation of this album is not supporting me and is absolutely doing the polar opposite of what I would ever encourage,” Grande wrote.

“I ask that you please do not,” Grande wrote. “It is not how to support me. It is the opposite.”
Grande was divorced from her husband of two years, Dalton Gomez, last year. A source confirmed to TODAY that she started dating her “Wicked” co-star, Ethan Slater, months before the divorce was finalized. The source also said that Slater was separated from his wife when he started dating Grande.
Named after the 2004 movie starring Kate Winslet and Jim Carrey, “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind,” the album seemingly discusses the breakdown of a relationship. Many believe songs on the album reference her divorce from Gomez and relationship with Slater.
The title track talks about a failed relationship with a liar and a cheater.
Grande sings: “Now it’s like I’m looking in the mirror. Hope you feel alright when you’re in her. I found a good boy and he’s on my side. You’re just my eternal sunshine, sunshine.”
In the music video for “We Can’t Be Friends (Wait for Your Love),” which stars actor Evan Peters, Grande seems to be undergoing a procedure to forget a relationship with a previous partner — similar to the one Winslet and Carrey received in the 2004 movie.
Grande was the musical guest on “Saturday Night Live” this week, where she sang two songs off of her new album — “Imperfect for You” and “We Can’t Be Friends (Wait for Your Love).”
