AceShowbiz - Nara Smith, known for her popular TikTok videos where she creates household items and food "from scratch," has garnered the attention of pop icon Ariana Grande. In a recent video, Grande playfully impersonated Smith's signature whispery voice and her meticulous "made from scratch" monologues.
Responding to a fan's question about the impersonation during an Instagram Q&A, Smith expressed her amusement and appreciation, saying, "I saw and giggled."
Grande's impersonation came after "Saturday Night Live" recent sketch that parodied influencers and their viral "doomscrolling" behaviors on TikTok. Smith's unique cooking videos, where she makes everything from Coca-Cola to cereal completely from scratch, were featured in the sketch.
According to Smith, her distinctive voice and video style were inspired by ASMR (autonomous sensory meridian response), an internet phenomenon known for its soothing effects. She explained that she needed to speak quietly while her children slept, and the soft tones became a popular feature of her videos.
Smith's videos have been met with both admiration and criticism. Some have praised her for promoting a lifestyle focused on non-processed foods and home cooking, while others have criticized her for perpetuating an unattainable, traditional housewife image.
Despite the critiques, Smith has defended her approach, emphasizing that she is both a working mother and a model. She shares three children with her husband Lucky Blue Smith and has denied having a large staff to support her lifestyle.
Smith and her husband, who are raising their children on a ranch in Texas, have both expressed their commitment to equal parenting responsibilities. Smith has also stated that she does not subscribe to the notion of a repressed wife, but rather enjoys cooking while her husband handles other household tasks.
Ariana Grande's impersonation of Nara Smith has further highlighted the viral sensation's influence on popular culture. Smith's dedication to her unique content and her ability to laugh at herself have made her a relatable and entertaining figure in the world of social media.
