OK, who had October 14th in the pool?
I’m kidding. It’s easy to make jokes about Ariana Grande’s relationship with Pete Davidson – they seemed so mismatched, he seemed so goofy and awkward and just… not on her level.
But this is yet another sad blow to Ari in a season of tough life events. One of the biggest, obviously, being the untimely death of her ex, Mac Miller. Sources are saying that was the ultimate breaking point of her relationship with Pete.
Ari failed to show up to a scheduled event on Saturday night, the F___ Cancer Gala in Los Angeles. Her manager, Scooter Braun, who is also involved with the foundation, spoke up for her.
“Someone that I am very close to could not be here today because of things that she is going through. She couldn’t be here today, and while I was frustrated, being a manager, my wife, being who she always is, said to me, ‘She needs this time.’ If people are just here to see her sing and not [wanting to] be here for the cancer foundation, I don’t want them here anyway.”
The next day, news started to leak that Ariana & Pete's engagement had been called off. Ultimately I’m happy she’s not marrying him – I think she can do better! -- but I feel sad that her life has been so rough lately.
Maybe she can get some closure with Slacker’s The Twenty: It’s Over.
