âJeffrey Dahmerâs pretty fascinating. I think I wouldâve loved to have met him,â she said on the second episode of her two-part interview, before joking, âMaybe with a third party or something. I have questions I would have loved [to ask him]. The parents were like, âWeâll explain later.ââ
Grande admitted that she was âinfatuatedâ with serial killers when she was younger, and clarified that her fascination with Dahmer came before Netflix released The Jeffrey Dahmer Story.
While the hosts laughed off Grandeâs comments, the relatives of Tony Hughes, one of Dahmerâs victims, didnât see the funny side. âTo me, it seems like sheâs sick in her mind,â Shirley, Tonyâs mother, told TMZ. âItâs not fancy or funny to say you would have wanted to do dinner with him. Itâs also not something you should say to young people, which she says she did.â
Likewise, Tony’s sister Barbara has said that the comments glamorise Dahmer, and that she’d love to see the former Nickelodeon star apologise.
After the first episode of the interview was released earlier this month, fans were left confused after Grande appeared to switch her singing voice. She was laughing and speaking in a deeper register than she normally does in public, before switching to a softer, higher voice.
She explained that sheâs long done it as a way to protect her voice â itâs been a habit of herâs over the past two years for good âvocal healthâ.
Recently, You actor Badgley appeared in the music video for Grande’s latest single âThe Boy Is Mineâ, which reimagines the 1998 song of the same name by Brandy and Monica â who themselves have cameos in the music video.
In an inversion of his role in You, Badgley plays a city mayor whoâs being stalked by a local resident, played by Grande.
The song is the third single from Grandeâs seventh studio album, âEternal Sunshineâ, which came out on March 8. In a four-star review of the album, NME said: âItâs the most sophisticated project yet from a preternaturally talented vocalist who keeps getting better. Whatever you take away from it, âEternal Sunshineâ definitely isnât an album youâll want to wipe from memory.â
