After Being Accused Of Putting On A Transatlantic Accent, Ariana Grande Has Explained Why Her Voice Has Changed

Since landing the role of Glinda in Wicked, Ariana has been repeatedly accused of putting on a transatlantic accent in real life.

Still, the scrutiny has continued, with Ariana’s voice arguably being one of the biggest talking points from her and Cynthia Erivo’s joint appearance on Vanity Fair’s infamous Lie Detector Test YouTube series, which went live on Monday.

“There is a part of the world that isn’t familiar with what it takes to transform your voice, whether it’s singing or taking on a different dialect for a role or doing a character voice for something,” she told Vanity Fair.
