#btw when it was revealed that there were people buying the album en masse from china ari's stans still claimed that the sales were fake

[bears-n-bottoms]

Kris was blocking Ariana from getting a #1 on the iTunes charts with "thank you, next", so her fans accused him of using bots and complained to Scooter Braun about it.

This tweet has since been deleted (and Scooter Braun even claims that it's fake, which is funny cause I happened to see before he deleted it, but 😶😶😶), but the intentions are clear. After this tweet went live, Kris' album fell out of the iTunes charts and many of his fans were even claiming that they couldn't find it on iTunes, leading people to speculate that Braun had had the album removed.

And to add insult to injury, this also happened. I can't find this tweet in her likes (which is smart, I guess), so take of this what you will.

Anyway.

This had become such a big deal that Universal Music China (Kris' label) issued a statement saying Kris' sales were genuine (as expected of crazy pop idol stans, no one believed them) and Scooter Braun even had a sit down with Kris about the matter. Turns out that because the album dropped in the US/Canada before it did in China, his Chinese fans were buying it off the US iTunes store (which would result in it charting so well, cause his Chinese fandom is Wild™). Braun even claims that the album has dropped out of the US iTunes charts (sans two songs) because it had become available from Chinese music portals.

TL;DR - Racism and Xenophobia prevailed, because western pop fans can't believe a Chinese dude get a #1.

On the bright side, Kris couldn't give two fucks about this bullshit 😂😂😂
