Ariana Grande previously confessed that she feels uncomfortable being sexy and now "The Way" singer is admitting that she is also uneasy "being forwardly sexual" after receiving a large amount of backlash from fans following her Instagram and Twitter post of a racy photo for her album sleeve.

According to Entertainment Wise, the "Yours Truly" artist released a teaser shot to fans of photos that they can expect to be featured in her album cover however, Nathan Sykes' girlfriend received negative feedback about one photo in particular.

In the image Ariana Grande was featured in a sexy white basque paired with thigh highs while surrounded by a bed of roses.

Fans were shocked that the typically adorable songstress posted such a raunchy photographer of herself.

Addressing the controversial photo, Grande said, "It was never the cover art. It was a more mature shot, but I'm not comfortable enough to be forwardly sexual."

The singer's choreographer Isaac added, "It was girly and feminine, and we're proud of it."

Something else the singer is proud of is her successful somewhat long distance relationship with her boyfriend The Wanted's Nathan Sykes.

She explained, "We never have to go that long without seeing each other, actually. It's amazing. It's very convenient."

She added, "We have the same management so it's easy to look at each other's schedules and pick out a certain time. But we're not separated for more than a week at a time, usually."

The singer went on to say, "But it doesn't even matter. It's just such a happy thing. The distance doesn't really take a toll when you're that happy."
