Justice addressed speculation that she had issues with the “God Is A Woman” singer in a recent interview E! News. He recalled starring in “Victorious” with Grande and how much fun it was to be on set together.
Despite his reluctance to address the topic, the 30-year-old revealed his frustration with long-standing rumors that he was jealous of Grande. He explained, “I think it’s an ongoing story of the media and people wanting to pit people against each other.”
Justice noted that the speculation was baseless and “irrelevant,” especially over ten years since the show aired. The star who reached out to Grande about it at the time revealed that the 29-year-old called it ridiculous. Describing their reaction, Justice said, “We were both like, ‘This is so stupid.'”
How the Rumors Started

Jealousy rumors started when “Victorious” premiered in 2010 with Justice as Tori Vega and Grande as Cat Valentine. During that period, the lead actor made a viral promotional video for a teen sitcom,
During the clip, Elizabeth Gillies, who stars as Jade West from Arts of Hollywood, notes how unique Grande’s singing voice is. Justice then jokingly interjects by stating that they are all singers at a fictional high school. He said to Gillies, crossing his arms, “I think we’re all singing.”
Many viewers interpreted the exchange to mean that the “Perfect Couple” actress was jealous of her co-star’s talent. More than a decade later, Justice revealed that fans still pit him and Grande “against each other,” as they have repeatedly.
