Check my table of contents for more of Ariana. Hi everyone it’s me Ariana, After the report about me the other day I decided I had to say something, not because they seeemingly want me to, but because I was frankly insulted by their comments about me being ashamed, and insinuating that not coming out was hurting my fans, assuming they could lecture me on how I should feel about my protection. Yes I wear goodnites, yes I wear diapers, happy? I haven’t come out about it because my diapers are very personal to me. Although I am a bedwetter, and yes the rumor is true I wore pull-ups to school until I was in 4th grade, and yes although I do wear them for practical wetting reasons, they are more than just that for me. Finally, it’s hard for me to hold on to any amount of privacy, I just really don’t want my diapers or speculation about my potty training to become a narrative in the media. In the future I’ll speak about my diapers if I choose to, but I won’t be answering questions about if I’m wearing a diaper, or what diaper are you wearing, or how is your potty training going, etc. because I want that to stay as my business. Before I get into that I just wanted to get ahead of the next viral report, here are a couple of pics that could be out there: The paparazzi got one of me thinking my coat was long enough to hide the wet spot on my jeans, it was definitely not lol, surprised no one caught that. And I accidentally posted this pic to Instagram for like a minute a few months ago, as soon as I realized I got some of my goodnite in the shot I deleted it, but it’s still managed to get a few thousand likes while it was up, I guess my goodnite wasn’t as immediately recognizable as I feared. So to give everyone some context, I am and have always been a bedwetter, I wear protection to bed every night (sometimes it’s goodnites, other times when I’m feeling lazier I’ll throw on a bigger diaper.) I was potty trained during the day around the time I was 10, yes I wore pull-ups to school everyday before then. I was very insecure about my bedwetting in my teens, but as i got a bit older and my career started taking off, I grew to kind of accept that my bedwetting was just a part of me that I couldn’t change, just like I was lucky to be born with my voice which has given me an amazing career, I realized I was lucky to be born as a bedwetter because without it I really would not have turned out the same way. As I came to this realization I developed more of a sense of humor and was more casual about my diaper wearing, I began to tell my friends about my problem, and I even found out I had two other friends who had similar issues. I was looking through my photos when I was writing this and dug this one up of baby Ari from that time: Me and them used to have a group chat where we’d share pics of our wet morning diapers, I know that sounds weird, but we were all young and we had never had anyone to share this type of stuff with before, but yeah that’s how you get a pic of 20 year old Ariana in one of the wettest diapers I’ve ever made, no idea how I did that in one night. While touring for my second album my diapers became more than just a bedtime thing. I had always worn protection while traveling just in case, but the thing about touring is that it’s just continuous traveling. I just move from city to city on buses and planes, and if I want to take a nap I need to wear a diaper, and if I want to use a bathroom I have to use a bus or airplane bathroom, which can be kinda gross. So I started wearing protection pretty much full time during that tour, and wore them long enough that I kinda needed to re-potty train afterward, but since then I’ve done that on all my tours. Through the next couple of years I went through a lot of traumatic sh*t in my life, and during those periods my diapers became more than just practical. When my life seemed so unstable and chaotic, diapers helped me feel a small amount of safety and comfort. They became a tool I used to help process trauma, on days when I didn’t feel like leaving my house or talking to anyone, my diapers were still there protecting me, and when I wanted to go out and sort of re-join the world, I felt like they went along to support me. Now whenever I have a bad day, or whenever I just want to turn off and relax I put on a diaper to help me let go. That’s why I wanted to keep my diapers secret, the way I use diapers isn’t exactly average, and it doesn’t work for everyone. I don’t want the media using a pic of me in a diaper to question my commitment to potty training when in reality I was just taking a mental health day. I don’t want young people seeing me in diapers and say “Ariana Grande wears diapers so I’m not gonna bother potty training,” like no you should do what’s best for you, don’t let my weird coping mechanism effect your decisions. I wrote this, and I also went in and did a shoot for goodnites to prove that I am not ashamed of my diapers and to retake ownership of my personal story with protection. And to those who just feel like they NEED to know how my potty training is going I’ll do the interview for you: Ariana are you diapered right now? Yes, I’m wearing a goodnite Is it clean? Nope Are you ever gonna potty train? Ummm.. thank you, nextHi everyone, as always this was fake , and I don’t speak for any celeb. But also: idk if this is my absolute best, but I feel like it’s up there, and I’ve never been more proud of a photoshop than I am of that last picture (it was just a really difficult one to work on and I think it turned out great.) I don’t like asking for notes, but I just think it’d be awesome if this was the post that got me to 1k followers (I’m like 20 away rn) so it’d be great if you wanted to give it a reblog or at least a like.
