The 'Ariana Grande As Every Race' meme highlights the dramatic shifts in the pop star's visual presentation and skin tone throughout her career. Beginning with her Nickelodeon 'Victorious' days and moving through her 'Thank U, Next' era and her recent high-fashion looks, internet users began noticing that her style often leaned into different ethnic archetypes. This led to viral discussions regarding 'Blackfishing' and 'Asianfishing,' with the meme specifically using a grid format to categorize her looks as if they were character selection options in a video game. It serves as both a critique of cultural appropriation in pop music and a humorous observation of how celebrity branding evolves over time.
