Variana is the real-life pairing of Victoria Justice and Ariana Grande (V/ictoria and Ariana). Like all of the Victorious cast, they were close in real life. This pairing is not to be confused with Cori, the pairing of the characters they portray in Victorious.

Ariana mentioned in numerous videos that she was proud of Victoria, and Victoria said that she thought Ariana was very cute and girly.

Shortly after Victorious's cancellation was announced, Victoria and Ariana got into a heated argument on Twitter after Ariana implied that the reason Victorious ended was because of Victoria choosing to do a solo tour rather than a cast tour. This caused their fans to get into a huge war.

Ariana recently mentioned in an interview that she was bullied on set. Fans believed that it was Victoria, but Ariana soon cleared that she was bullied on Broadway, and she had the best time on the set of Victorious. Since then, Victoria has tweeted about Ariana and cleared everything up. They also re-followed each other on Twitter and Instagram and have appeared together in group events, such as the ten-year Victorious reunion in 2020.

More details about the alleged feud between Victoria and Ariana can be found here.
