As if the beef between Nicki Minaj and power couple Travis Scott and Kylie Jenner wasn’t messy enough already, Ariana Grande has weighed in and may I ask why?

While at a fan event in support of her new bop-filled album, Sweetener, Ari expressed concern over beating Scott to number one.
“We got three days left,” Grande joked in a video from the event captured by a crowd member and shared on Twitter. “You don’t know what Travis could pull!”

Grande’s comment basically implies that she agrees with Minaj’s allegation that Scott only reached the top of the charts because of his reality star girlfriend.
As the video went viral and fans accused Ari of shading Scott and Jenner, the pint-sized pop star took to Twitter to clarify that there was no savagery intended.
“I adore Travis & Kylie and I love the Astroworld album,” she wrote. “A joke issa joke watch the video, stop using me for clickbait so i can come online n celebrate my number one too pls ! hip hip hooray.”
“Also everything literally almost everything I say I say for comedic effect and am never serious …. like I’m always “on”…. if ever u think i’m being shady i’m jus goin for the laugh ….. if i’m being fr shady you’ll know i’m a v loving lil babe ????????anyway i jus had to say that bc i love everyone a lot n that ain’t accurate or journalism ???? ok love u.”

Earlier today we reported that Minaj had squashed rumours that she has beef with Jenner after a video surfaced of Kylie running from her at the VMAs.
“She gotta ride with her man, why the fuck wouldn’t she?” She said via Complex.
“We’re not gonna make this what it’s not. She’s a dope girl .. This is strictly about music, she has nothing to do with this. My fans are not feeding into this. We love Kylie.”
