Ariana DeBose Responds to Critics Choice Jab About Thinking She Can Sing

Ariana DeBose got lumped in with actors who became songbirds in their movies this past year — a joke cracked at the Critics Choice Awards … which she didn’t appreciate one bit.

The Oscar winner was on hand Sunday night at the latest award show in Santa Monica — where she was up for a statuette in the Best Song category for her tune in Disney’s “Wish” … alongside others in films like “Barbie,” “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” and “Rustin.”

Before they announced the winners, presenters Bella Ramsey and Anthony Ramos made a crack about some of the stars in the group … labeling them “actors who think that they’re singers,” name-dropping Ryan Gosling, Jack Black and, surprisingly, Ariana herself.

The camera cut to her face right at that moment, and she looked fairly confused/insulted.

Welp, as it turns out … that’s exactly how she felt inside — ’cause she later took to IG to express the sentiment that we all saw on her face … writing, “I Didn’t Find It Funny Lol.”

While you could argue the crack was in good fun, fans jumped to her defense to point out it was technically inaccurate — ’cause ADB most certainly *can* sing … and does so flawlessly. Not only has she received accolades for her musical performances on camera, but she’s a star on Broadway as well — so to compare to the likes of JB and Gosling does seem off.

Sounds like one of the CCA script writers just might not like her … that’s the vibe anyway.
