Ariana Grande posted a letter to the media on Sunday, using both Instagram and Twitter to make it clear to her fans and the world that she is more than a sum of who she has dated.

The post is a reportedly a response to gossip surrounding her recent interview with British tabloid The Sun, in which she said, "I'm tired of needing to be linked to a guy, I'm not Big Sean's ex, I'm not Niall's new possible girl. I'm Ariana Grande."
In the post, Grande expanded by saying she wants everyone to know they are enough on their own. "I'm saying this after literally 8 years of feeling like I constantly had to have a boy by my side," she wrote. "After being on my own now for a few months I am realizing that that's just not the case..... I have never felt more present, grounded, and satisfied."
The post also addressed her responses to The Sun's questions about the boys in her life, one of which included the statement, "A girl can be friends with someone with a d--- and not hop on it."
"I have clearly not been having the boy questions in my interviews lately because I have come to the realization that I have SO. MUCH. MORE. to talk about," the singer wrote. And if over 72,000 retweets are any indication, her fans want to hear it.
