One person tweeted: "Ariana getting paid over $10M more than Cynthia doesn't sit right with me."

While another added: "It’s not that Ariana shouldn’t have been paid that much. It’s that Cynthia should have been paid just as much, if not more — she’s the lead, after all."

And a third said: "I agree 100%, yes aris a big star but cynthia is the lead and deserved way more even if it wouldn't be as much as ari."

Meanwhile, others defended Grande's salary, with one adding: "Ariana is a superstar, pop star known world wide.

"She brings a whole fanbase with her to watch the movie. That’s how contract negotiations work. Cynthia does not have the same fanbase and notoriety."

Another added: "Can yall for once think. She's ARIANA GRANDE? One of the biggest pop stars of all time ofc she will be paid more than anyone else."
