Ariana Grande\'s fans round on Wendy Williams after age comments

Talk show host Wendy Williams has faced the wrath of Ariana Grande’s fans after she remarked on the singer’s youthful looks.

The US TV star said the Bang Bang singer, 22, looked like “a 12-year-old”.

“She’ll forever look 12. I don’t mean that in a good way,” Wendy said.

She also mentioned Ariana’s height of 4’11″ before adding: “I don’t look at her as a woman.”

Her comments on her talk show, The Wendy Williams Show, immediately infuriated the singer’s fans, who called the presenter out for “shaming” Ariana.

ariana: is against homophobia, animal abuse, sexism, racism still she gets picked on cause she looks younger smh

its people like wendy that creates these standards in society that just makes teenage girls feel bad & sad

The hashtag #CancelWendyWilliams was soon trending on Twitter, thanks to Ariana’s followers.

as someone who has the exact same body as Ariana I feel really offended to be considered not a woman? #CancelWendyWilliamsShow

To put yourself up by bringing someone down is not the way you do it... #CancelWendyWilliamsShow

it isn't okay to shame someone because of face or height, especially when whole 🌎 is watching and listening! #CancelWendyWilliamsShow

see what happens when u make uniformed statements, judge & bully as if ur perfect. Learn to be more humane & kind #CancelWendyWilliamsShow

do you think, ariana can choose which size she have, or how she looks like? No. #CancelWendyWilliamsShow pic.twitter.com/DKEIE1PXT9
