There’s so much rot in pop culture these days that we often overlook the goodness that exists. Young singer and actress Ariana Grande has bonded with fans on social media by sharing her warm relationships with family members. One of her featured loved ones: Her cherished 90-year-old grandfather.
Sadly, Grande’s granddad lost his battle to cancer today — and fans sent the hashtag #RIPGrandpaGrande trending to the top spot on Twitter.
