Actor Rob Lowe criticized singer Ariana Grande after her semi-apology for being caught on tape saying, "I hate America."

Lowe, who frequently takes a conservative stance, took to Twitter and called her explanation #lame.


Gossip website TMZ posted a video Wednesday of Grande, accompanied by one of her backup dancers, licking donuts on a display while the worker is in the back preparing a fresh batch.

After being caught when the worker brings out more donuts, Grande launched into a very unpatriotic tirade.

“What the f–k is that?” she said. “I hate Americans. I hate America.”

Grande apologized for the comment in a statement later that day and said it was supposed to be commentary on obesity.

Grande is under investigation by police for licking the donuts, the Associated Press reported.
