Ariana Grande Throws Shade with a ‘Like,’ and Carrie Underwood’s Trump Performance Becomes the Internet’s New Soap Opera

Buy Me A Coffee

Ariana Grande just proved that a single tap can send the internet into a frenzy. The 31-year-old Wicked star decided to sprinkle a little sass on her social media feed by “liking” a shady Instagram post mocking Carrie Underwood’s, um, less-than-smooth performance at Donald Trump’s inauguration.

Let’s rewind to that fateful day when Carrie, the American Idol darling, stepped up to sing “America the Beautiful.” Things were going great until the music track decided it was over the drama and quit. Cue awkward silence. Carrie, ever the pro, soldiered on, asking the audience to help her out here before launching into an a cappella version. (Honestly, a bold move—like trying to freestyle rap at karaoke after three margaritas.)

Enter Evan Ross Katz, internet personality and self-appointed meme king. He shared a screenshot of Vice President Kamala Harris watching the performance, captioning it with a biting nod to RuPaul’s Drag Race legend Coco Montrese: “Kamala Harris evoking Coco Montrese (‘Girl, find the note’) while watching Carrie Underwood’s chilling inauguration performance.” For the uninitiated, Coco once roasted a fellow contestant with the same line, delivering the kind of read that still echoes in reality TV history.

Ariana, clearly in on the joke, gave the post her seal of approval with a “like.” And just like that, the internet exploded faster than you can say “Side to Side.” Fans, trolls, and meme-makers flooded the comments, turning the moment into social media gold.

The moral of the story? Even without singing a note, Ariana Grande can effortlessly steal the show—and sometimes, it just takes a perfectly placed tap of the thumb. Meanwhile, somewhere, Carrie Underwood is probably rolling her eyes and thinking, “Girl, find a chill.”
