Ariana Grande says “no” to Carole Baskin

Newfound fame did not help Tiger King's Carole Baskin and her husband to get featured in a Justin Bieber-Ariana Grande Stuck With U music video. It all started when Justin Bieber chose to promote their music video by sharing a video of Tiger King fame Carole Baskin dancing with her husband to the song. The couple were dressed in matching lion costumes as they danced along to the tune. 

Justin Bieber tweeted this video and wrote, “Tonight #stuckwithu. He ain’t going nowhere.” But Ariana Grande was quick to clarify about Baskin’s appearance in the video. She tweeted, “For the record, I did not allow or approve this clip to be in the actual video. But Nonetheless, it exists and that’s…unique. Anyways, 7.5 hours!”
