Rob Lowe Calls Ariana Grande ‘I Hate America’ Apology ‘Lame’ And Stands Up For The USA
Rob Lowe stood up for America and lambasted singer Ariana Grande for her very unpatriotic comments about the land of the free and the home of the brave. The movie star took to Twitter after Grande said she “hates America,” and her comments went viral.
Ariana Grande made the anti-American comments while she was unknowingly caught on tape at a donut shop over the Fourth of July weekend. While millions of Americans were celebrating the birth of this great nation and reflecting upon the courage of our Founding Fathers, the 22-year-old singer was so upset by the eating habits of her countrymen and women that she decided to toss around the word “hate” when referencing the dietary preferences likely embraced by at least some of her fans.

The Rob Lowe Dixie Chicks tweet referenced disparaging comments made by the group about President George W. Bush at a London concert 12 years. ago. Ariana Grande said she not only hates America, but “hates Americans,” as well.

“I am EXTREMELY proud to be an American and I’ve always made it clear that I love my country,” Grande said after the donut shop video and the “I hate Americans” and “I hate America” comments went viral.
Ariana Grande also added that she was merely attempting to express a frustration about how some Americans eat and the way she feels about the obesity rate in the United States. Exactly why she appears to lick the donuts on the counter and is looking for a healthy snack inside a donut shop, remains unclear.

“I should have known better in how I expressed myself,” the pop singer said. “As an advocate for healthy eating, food is very important to me and I sometimes get upset by how freely we as Americans eat and consume things without giving any thought to the consequences that it has on our health and society as a whole.”
The Ariana Grande donut shop video has spawned a viral hashtag on Twitter — #donutgate.
