Ariana Grande: Diva rumours are laughable

Ariana Grande is "laughing out loud" at rumours about her.

The 21-year-old singer has been hit by gossip about her "diva" behaviour lately, with one report by the New York Daily News claiming she said salacious things about fans after a recent public appearance.

Now the star has taken to Twitter to give her side of the story.

"man some of these rumors that have been coming out about me lately actually have me laughing out loud.... really can't take em seriously," she warned her fans.

"sooner or later ppl will realize that what u put out is what u get back. the lies/hate etc. give love & I promise life will treat u better

"I've said this before but I promise it's true. what u focus on expands. what u put out, u get back. live for love & your life will be pretty (sic)"

According to the newspaper's Confidenti@l column, Ariana was signing autographs and posing for pictures. She is then said to have got into an elevator.

"And as soon as the doors shut she said, 'I hope they all f**king die,'" an insider reported.

It comes just shortly after allegations she was difficult during a photoshoot in Australia. Reports claim she demanded natural light be avoided and that she should only be snapped from her left side.

"love love love love love love love. k? n here's some more love for u. even those who are unkind. here's some love for u too. u need it most," Ariana tweeted.

"not to quote rent but ima boutta quote rent. share love. give luv. spread luv. measure ur life in luv. (I quoted rent & I'm not apologizing) (sic)."

Luckily, the rumours aren't affecting Ariana's popularity. The starlet is on a role, having collaborated with the likes of Jessie J, Nicki Minaj and Iggy Azalea recently, and scoring six nods in yesterday's MTV EMA nominations.
