Ariana Grande is getting defensive over this — even if it means getting shady!
Last year, the pop-star-turned-actress sat down with Wicked co-lead Cynthia Erivo for Vanity Fair’s lie detector test. During a series of rapid-fire questions, Cynthia asked her if she believes the moon landing was faked. At the time, the NASA singer responded:
“Jesus Christ! What do you take me for? No. No!”
However, the polygraph technician reported the results came back “inconclusive” — which she was shocked to hear.

Fast forward to now! On Tuesday, the 32-year-old appeared in another installment of Vanity Fair’s lie detector test — this time alongside Wicked: For Good costar Bowen Yang. And while the polygraph technician was strapping her into the machine, she broke the ice by declaring:
“I wanna make sure you’re getting the truth this time, because I feel a little bit like we have some air to clear. For me, that moon thing doesn’t sit well with me, because I think sometimes I get nervous.”
She questioned if the machine is “picking up truth or lie” or just “waves of panic,” before clarifying she is NOT one of these conspiracy theorists out here saying we didn’t land on the moon:
“The moon landing has happened … and f**k off if it didn’t.”
Ha! Clearly she saw how the internet reacted last time! Well, she may not even have known it, depending on when the test video was filmed… but she was, perhaps inadvertently, stepping into another controversy by trying to get out of that one!
See, just the other day Kim Kardashian addressed the very same question during a Season 7 episode of The Kardashians, where she confidently admitted to All’s Fair co-star Sarah Paulson she totally believes the moon landing “didn’t happen.”
So when Ari is telling all the conspiracy nuts to eff off… Oops! Talking to Kim Kardashian, as it turns out! Ha!
Hilariously, later in the test Bowen did ask a question about the flag “planted on the moon.” Ariana had enough this time, shouting exasperatedly:
“You know, I hear both arguments … the truth is, I don’t give a rat’s ass. I’m worried about Earth, god damnit! We’re burning alive! We’re killing each other! Can we worry about Earth for five minutes? Who gives a f**k about the moon and the flag?”
HA!
