Following the interview, Ari went on to write a series of tweets where she spoke about how she found the interview disrespectful, however, she has since deleted the posts.
"Just because I happily and freely sing about sex, don't make any kind of disrespect warranted. I clearly was in immense shock and hate that I didn't react differently," she tweeted.
