Ariana Grande is making sure she looks on fleek when it comes to her concert photography.
And why the heck not? Not like she doesnt always look flawless anyway.
However, its been claimed that the star is tightening up her rules when it comes to taking professional pictures at her gigs by laying down a whole new policy for photographers.
According to TMZ, the pint sized popstar is now approving the photos that get distributed.
Its said she has hired a house photographer after a number of images from her shows ended up on merchandise – without her seeing any money from the sales.
Earlier this week a number of agencies National Press Photographers Association in protest of the new regulations.

If the company then wants to use the pictures, its said they have to get written approval from Aris team.
And this isnt the only thing shes honing down on, as following the Manchester bombing at her gig back in 2017, the star has decided to tighten up her security – and who can blame her?
Taking to Instagram before the opening of her tour, the singer decided to get real with he fans and urged her followers to purchase clear bags before the show in order to make security as smooth as possible.

She said: Dear sweetener / thank u next tour audience friends.
Were sending out emails soon encouraging you to order a clear bag to bring your things into the venues as security is going to be very precise and smooth but for sure super strict.
Theyre super cheap and simple but having them ahead of time will for sure help things go as smooth as possible so if you see this in your emails please dont ignore it!
The Break Up With Your Girlfriend hitmaker added: My team n i appreciate it very much! p.s. any clear bags within a certain size (all info will be in the ) are totally fine to bring if you already have your own.
