Ariana Grande seen for the first time since emotional plea and body-shaming row
Ariana Grande has been spotted for the first time since making an emotional plea after online users criticised her appearance.
The singer, 29, was seen enjoying a shopping trip as she mingled in with the hustle and bustle of London's busy Bond Street.
She was pictured wearing a black North Face waterproof jacket and a yellow baseball cap, while she opted for a pair of faded jeans and a pair of cream shoes on the bottom half.
She wore her hair in typical Ariana fashion - pulled into a ponytail - and styled out a large-framed pair of pale sunglasses.
Her browsing saw her tackle the delights on offer at Tiffany’s, Prada, Loewe, Alaia, Chloe and Miu Miu.

The trip comes after she was forced to ask her followers to "be gentle" after some had shared their concerns about her appearance.
In a statement following the comments by body shamers, the songstress said: "I think we should be gentler and less comfortable commenting on people's bodies, no matter what.

She tried on outfits during her trip (TOPSTAR / BACKGRID)"If you think you're saying something good or well-intentioned, whatever it is, healthy or unhealthy, big or small, this or that, sexy or not sexy, we should really work towards not doing that as much.
"There are ways to compliment someone or to ignore something you see that you don't like.
"I think we should help each other work towards just being safer and keeping each other safer."
Reminding people there were a number of ways you could look healthy and beautiful, she continued in the TikTok post: "Personally for me, the body that you've been comparing my current body to was the unhealthiest version of my body.

She revealed she hoped her openness to confront the comments can bring something good from the situation.
Ariana continued: "You never know what someone is going through so even if you're coming from a loving place or a caring place, that person probably is working on it or has a support system that they're working on it with.
