Michael Rapaport Slams Ariana Grande & Pete Davidson in New Interview

Michael Rapaport has some harsh words for Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson.

The 48-year-old comedian slammed the 26-year-old “7 Rings” singer and the 25-year-old SNL cast member in a new interview on You Up with Nikki Glaser on SiriusXM’s Comedy Central Radio – where he blamed Ariana for Pete‘s suicide tweet.

“This is f–king Ariana Grande’s fault,” Michael said. “I’m not apologizing for this s–t anyway! I was, like, because in twenty years she’s going to be like Mariah Carey, f–king up the lyrics to her own song, drunk at a New Year’s thing.”

Michael then took aim at Pete saying, “I was annoyed with this f–king guy and his f–king suicide attempt note, and then not apologizing for it. That really offended me.”

Michael continues: “The fact that he’s come back and didn’t acknowledge — ‘Yo to all my fans, to the New York City police department, to the people I work with and all my fans that were worried — I apologize for saying that.’ We’re glad you’re good, but you freaked everybody out.”

This isn’t the first time Michael has slammed Ariana. Back in December 2018, he commented on her appearance saying, “I think there’s hotter women working the counter at Starbucks.”

Neither Ariana or Pete have addressed Michael‘s comments yet.
