Third Time’s A Charm? Ariana Grande Declares Her Love For The U.S.A.

Ariana Grande has had her fair share of problems this month, and it all started with some sugary treats. The pop star was under investigation after TMZ acquired surveillance footage of her licking doughnuts at Wolfee Donuts in California. Although the owner of the store decided not to press charges, Grande has still been scrutinized for offensive statements she made about America during the incident. Since then, the "Break Free" singer has apologized not once, but twice, for her behavior, and now it looks like she's made an effort to express her sincerity a third time. On July 16, during a concert in Tampa, FL, Grande shared her American pride with fans. "I'm so grateful to be here in Tampa," the singer is seen yelling in video footage taken by an audience member. "And I'm so, so grateful to be here performing in the U.S.A., the greatest country in the world!" From the overwhelming shrieks and screams, it seems her fans, at least, are well on their way to forgiving her. However, Grande would probably be wise to steer clear of doughnut shops for a long time to come. Take a look at the video below.
