Victoria Justice and Ariana Grande have definitely had a tumultuous relationship. However, according to J-14, Victoria wanted to set the record straight and let people know that Ariana’s comments in an old Seventeen magazine interview had nothing to do with her.

The comments in question had Ariana saying that a co-worker of hers had been bullying her, and fans jumped to the conclusion that the bully in question was Victoria — despite Ariana and Victoria both claiming otherwise. Now, Victoria is refuting the claim publicly, saying (Quotes via J-14), “Even though she said it wasn’t true, our fans still believed that I bullied her, and that really bothered me. I’m super anti-bullying, and I’ve never bullied anyone in my life. I want people to know that.”

When asked further about her current relationship with Ariana, Victoria said, “We’re not enemies. I mean, I wouldn’t call her up to have a sleepover, but at the end of the day, I wish her well. She’s doing great with her music, and she’s very talented. We’re just on our separate paths, doing our own things.”

We appreciate the honesty with which Victoria answered, when it would’ve been just as easy to say the two are totally best friends who hang out every second. And we’re glad she got a chance to clear up that rumor!
