After the announcement Ariana Grande took to Twitter where she thanked everyone….except for Jennette McCurdy. During Grande’s thank you speech to fans, she seemingly dissed her (now former) co-star. Note that the one name missing off her thank you list Jennette McCurdy’s. In fact the only mention of McCurdy in her whole rant was a side note about her character Sam and her infamous butter sock.
