Hey, remember that time when everyone and their mom was obsessed withVictoriouson Nickelodeon? Well, the show might be over, but people still can’t stop talking about Victoria Justice and Ariana Grande’s relationship behind the scenes. These two talented stars shared three years of their lives filming together, and boy, has their supposed “feud” been a hot topic ever since!

From viral memes to cryptic tweets, this story has more layers than a wedding cake. But what’s the real deal between these former co-stars? Let’s break down this decade-long saga and separate fact from fiction, shall we?

The Origins of the Feud Rumors

Let’s rewind to 2010, because that’s when this whole drama-fest kicked off! TheVictoriousgirls are sitting down for what should’ve been just another boring Popstar! magazine interview.Elizabeth Gilliesis gushing about howAriana Grandeliterally sings everything (which, let’s be honest, we’d all love to hear), calling her voice beautiful and everything. Then Daniella Monet jumps in to mention that Liz is quite the singer herself, and that’s whenVictoria Justicedrops the line that would launch a thousand memes: “I think we ALL sing.“

Fast forward a hot minute to 2013, and things got spicier than a ghost pepper whenVictoriouswrapped up. Someone on Ariana’s ask.fm account (throwback, am I right?) posted this tea about the show ending because“one girl” preferred doing a solo tourinstead of a cast tour.

Everyone and their pet goldfish assumed it was about Victoria, who – coincidentally or not – was touring that summer. Victoria’s response? A super cryptic tweet about people throwing friends “under the bus” that had fans losing their minds faster than you’re able to say “Make it Shine.“

The Truth Behind the Headlines

Okay, so here’s where things get really interesting! When Ariana sat down withSeventeen magazinein 2013, she spilled some tea about drama with a mystery co-star, saying they’d told her they’d “never like” her. Naturally, everyone jumped to conclusions. But hold up – because this story has a plot twist!

Victoria later appeared onThe Meredith Vieira Showand dropped the real tea: Ariana had actually texted her about that article, explaining that she was talking about someone from her Broadway days, not Victoria at all! Ariana backed this up with a super sweetstatement to Seventeen, calling herVictoriousyears some of the happiest of her life and referring to the cast as family. Talk aboutclearing the air!

Current Status: Setting the Record Straight

Fast forward to 2023 (feel old yet?), and Victoria’s finally had enough of these rumors. During anE! News interviewat Coachella, she spilled ALL the tea, revealing that she and Ari had been texting about the whole situation and both agreed it was totally ridiculous.

The best part? During the show’s10th anniversary in 2020(which included a super cute Zoom reunion – thanks, pandemic!), someone tried to stir the pot by referencing the infamous“I think we ALL sing”moment on Ari’s Instagram. But our girl Ariana shut that down faster than you’re able to say “thank u, next.” Victoria summed it up perfectly when she told E! News:

I feel like it’s this constant story of the media and people wanting to pit people against each other, and it’s just so not even relevant anymore now.

I mean, come on – both of these queens are absolutely crushing it in their own lanes.

Ariana’s out here breaking records in the music industry, Victoria’s killing it in acting, and they’re both probably too busy being successful to even think about some decade-old drama that never really existed in the first place. Victoria Justice even quoted her infamous“I think we ALL sing”meme in a video on Instagram and if that’s not a full-circle moment, then what is?

Victoriouscan be streamed on either Netflix of Paramount+.
