Mourners watching Ariana Grandes performance at Aretha Franklins funeral were left convinced that former President Bill Clinton checked out the star as she sang.
As family, friends and celebrities said their goodbyes to iconic performer Aretha, who passed away this month aged 76, Ariana was chosen to belt out classic hit Natural Women to the congregation.
Singing in front of the crowd at Greater Grace Temple in Detroit, Michigan, viewers who were watching the livestream from home were left convinced that Bills eyes wandered during her performance.
Specifically, up and down her body. However, prior to this, he was also seen looking around the rest of the crowd.
Naturally, people had some things to say about the moment, with most calling it gross while others were accusing Ariana of wearing a dress thats too short for a funeral.

(But seriously guys, its 2018 and you all should know better by this point.)
Some added that it was inappropriate for Bill, 72, to be looking at Ariana, 25, in such a manner.
He also seized the opportunity ahead of the service to grab a photograph with the singer and her fiance, Pete Davidson.

Bill Clinton staring like this at @ArianaGrandes butt during Aretha Franklins FUNERAL makes it painfully obvious that, historically, men are able to stay in good standing with the community at large even after it becomes known they have altered a womens narrative pic.twitter.com/6RmFff56vG

Some things never change. Bill Clinton has become a meme again after oogling Ariana Grande while she sang at another Aretha Franklin memorial.
