Elvira: Mistress of the Dark is an absolute legend, especially when it comes to all things hilariously spooky. It's honestly kind of wild to imagine how anyone — let alone a fellow celebrity — would end up creating beef with her.
This, unfortunately, is where Ariana Grande comes in.
So, there's a TikTok going around where Elvira (real name Cassandra Peterson, for those not in the know) is asked about her worst celebrity encounter at one of the recent "Yours Cruelly, Elvira Xxperience" events that took place at Knott's Berry Farm theme park in Buena Park, California.
Her answer, as it turns out, was Ariana — and Elvira was more than game to explain why.
Cassandra — sorry, Elvira — explained that she allegedly crossed paths with Ariana after the singer brought a large group of friends and family to one of her performances.
"We're like, 'Okay,' and we give her the tickets," she claimed. "She comes backstage and she asks if I could take pictures with all of her friends and relatives she brought."
"I take a picture with every single one of them. I sign autographs for every single one of them. Then I say to her, 'Can we take a photo together?'"
"She goes, 'Nah, I don't really do that.'"
Elvira went on to claim that Ariana's relatives "stayed" for the performance, but the singer herself "took off" and didn't hang around. "OK? Right? Just sayin'," she said.
Indeed! Who knows what will come of this — Ariana's in Wicked press tour mode for the next month, so it's very possible we'll get an update on what really happened here, from her POV at least. Stay tuned!
In the meantime, what have your celebrity encounters been like? Has there been one that's stood out as worse than the rest? Let us know in the comments.
UPDATE: Ariana responded in the comments to Elvira's IG post about the story, and her explanation (and apology) for what went down was pretty reasonable. You can read her full response below:
