The 25-year-old initially tweeted, "They invited his parents out. No," to a fan. Later, in response to another tweet about why the Grammys invited Mac's parent's Mark McCormick and Karen Meyers to the ceremony if they weren't going to posthumously award their son with Best Rap Album, Ariana wrote, "This is what I meant. Karen was going to have a green suit made.”

Despite her disappointment, Ariana liked and commented three black emojis alongside Cardi's Instagram which read, "We won a f**king Grammy." While the star was clearly preoccupied with other thoughts, she too earned herself her very first Grammy for Best Pop Album (Sweetener).
