Ariana Grande had a very close encounter with Sabrina Carpenter backstage as she suddenly had her hands wrapped around her neck. The Wicked actress and pop star, 32, took home a string of accolades at this year’s MTV Video Music Awards, but Sabrina’s actions caught the eyes of fans more.

As they posed in a bizarre embrace, Sabrina, 26, was spotted holding Ariana’s neck. As the pair posed for a glam snap backstage, she appeared to be playfully strangling Ariana.

Sabrina stunned in a shimmering corset bodysuit with a frayed hem, while Ariana looked stunning in a black and white cut out gown. It occurred shortly after Ariana, who won two awards, was accused of stifling Sabrina during the ceremony.

The seemingly contented exchange between the pair was immediately spotted by fans, some even accusing Ariana of being a “fake.” Some people thought she wasn’t particularly fond of Sabrina, the singer from Please Please Please.

Ariana triumphed over Lady Gaga during the ceremony as she picked up the top honour of Video of the Year for Brighter Days Ahead.

She was able to defeat The Weeknd &amp, Playboi Carti – Timeless, Lady Gaga &amp, Bruno Mars – Die With a Smile, Rosé &amp, Bruno Mars – Apt., Sabrina Carpenter – Manchild, and Billie Eilish – Birds of a Feather – Not Like Us.

Ariana stated on stage that the hard work involved in bringing back our young selves, including safety and our own lives, is a lifelong process that requires daily exercise.

“I promise there will be better days ahead if you’re on their journey, so please continue.” This is absurd. She also won Best Pop in Brighter Days Ahead.

Ariana won over Alex Warren, Ed Sheeran, Lady Gaga & Bruno Mars and Sabrina. “Thank you so much,” she said on stage. “Oh, my god.

“I love making this record with you more than anything in the entire world. It was life-changing, thank you for championing me as a songwriter and producer. I love you so much. Thank you to my therapist. And gay people, I love you.”
