Oops, Ariana Grande’s New Tattoo Has a Mistake


Ariana Grande just wanted to get a tattoo that said “7 Rings” in Japanese kanji, but the world had other plans. And by the world, I mean the ink was just too painful for Grande to sit through fully. This, in a nutshell, is the saga of Grande’s latest tattoo, which I’m calling, “7 Rings—No Wait, Actually, 7 Tiny Grills.”

It all started with the best intentions. Grande decided to commemorate her latest banger “7 Rings,” which iconically references The Sound of Music, with a new tattoo. And the title of the song scripted in Japanese kanji seemed like an easy way to go. Cut to a few hours later: Grande posts a now-deleted pic of the tattoo to Instagram, and Japanese fans notice something hilarious. The ink doesn’t actually translate to “7 Rings” but “Shichirin,” which means “small Japanese barbecue grill.”

Her fans, naturally, are losing it over this.

Grande owned up to the mistake in a series of since-deleted tweets. “Indeed, I left out ‘つの指’ which should have gone in between,” Grande tweeted. “It hurt like fuck n still looks tight. I wouldn’t have lasted one more symbol lmao. But this spot also peels a ton and won’t last so if I miss it enough I’ll suffer thru the whole thing next time.”

And just to clarify, she confirmed she’s also a “huge fan of tiny BBQ grills.”

Ariana Grande released “7 Rings” and its accompanying music video on Friday, January 18. The song is currently number-one on Billboard‘s Hot 100, continuing the streak she started with “Thank U, Next” in November 2018. Her fifth studio album, also titled Thank U, Next drops Friday, February 8, and comes just months after her fourth record, Sweetener. She’ll tour both albums starting this summer—right after she headlines Coachella, of course.

Ariana Grande's 'Thank U, Next' Album: Everything We Know So Far


We’re not even two weeks into the new year, and Ariana Grande is already breaking the Internet. The pop star did that quite a bit last year, whether it was with her song “Thank U, Next,” her relationship with Pete Davidson, or just, ya know, breathing. And 2019 is shaping up to be just as big. Not only is she headlining Coachella in April—she’ll be the fourth female and youngest person ever to do it—but new music is on the way. First up is the new song “7 Rings,” which Grande dropped on Friday (January 18).

The backstory of the song is interesting: Grande explained on Twitter that she and her six friends Vic, Courtney, Alexa, Tayla, Njomza, and Kaydence were having a “rough day” in New York City when they decided to hit Tiffany & Co. for a pick-me-up. (You know, as all rich people do.) “We had too much champagne. I bought us all rings,” Grande tweeted. “It was very insane and funny. And on the way back to the [studio], Njomza was like, ‘Bitch, this gotta be a song.’ So we wrote it that afternoon.”

As for the actual song, it’s a riff on “My Favorite Things” from The Sound of Music and celebrates friendship and money. Have a listen, and watch the pink-tastic video, for yourself, below:

Meanwhile, Grande’s Thank U, Next album is still shrouded in secrecy. Here’s everything we know so far:

1. The title. Grande confirmed it on November 3, when she revealed the phrase “Thank U, Next”—which she’d been tweeting a lot at that time—was both a song and album name.

2. The vibe. Billboard described the new sound as “deep, bass-driven bangers with trap beats alternating with airy, sad ballads.”

3. The track list. Three songs have been confirmed thus far: “Thank U, Next,” “7 Rings,” and “Imagine,” which was released as a promotional single.

4. It’s sad. But that doesn’t mean it’s slow. “A lot of it sounds really upbeat, but it’s actually a super-sad chapter,” she tells Billboard. “This [album’s] not particularly uplifting.”

5. Champagne helped make the record. Grande says Thank U, Next was the product of a lot of “feminine energy and champagne and music and laughter and crying,” according to Billboard.

6. There are no collaborations on the album. This will be Grande’s first album to feature just her.

7. The album is finished. Though Grande said she keeps “writing things she wants to add.” She teased the release would be at the end of 2018, so fans should definitely expect to hear it this year. Hopefully on the sooner side.

Pete Davidson’s Joke About Ariana Grande Complimenting His Penis Is…A Lot


Pete Davidson is back to making awkward jokes about his ex-fiancée, Ariana Grande. He first did this in October, when news broke about the couple’s split. “Does anybody have any open rooms? Looking for a roommate?” he said during a comedy show at the time, referring to the apartment the two shared that he, ultimately, had to leave. Now, he’s turning his attention to all those comments Grande made about his penis.

“I don’t like that she talked all that shit for my penis,” Davidson said during a set at the Tarrytown Music Hall in New York on Saturday (January 12), according to People. “Everything is huge to her. Why would she tell everyone that I have a huge penis? So that every girl who sees my dick for the rest of my life is disappointed.”

These quotes are….a lot, to say the least. For context, Grande made cracks about Davidson’s penis on two separate occasions: in a since-deleted tweet from June and during her “Thank U, Next” video when she wrote “HUUUUUGE” next to a photo of him.

Some people on Twitter aren’t exactly here for Davidson’s comments. They take issue with him claiming to be offended by Grande’s comments when he’s made several uncomfortable jokes about her body—like joking about switching her birth control with Tic Tacs and saying he’s “never been prouder” than when Bill Clinton appeared to be ogling her at Aretha Franklin’s funeral.

Others, however, came to Davidson’s defense, saying he’s a comedian and probably didn’t mean any harm by these jokes.

Regardless of intent, though, I just have one thing to say about this entire situation: Thank you, next.

Ariana Grande Just Made Coachella History


Coachella just announced its 2019 festival lineup, and it’s stacked. Childish Gambino, Tame Impala, and—drum roll, please— Ariana Grande will steer the ship for the festival’s two weekends. With this, Grande becomes only the fourth female headliner in Coachella’s history—and the youngest female artist to receive top billing. (She’s joining ranks with Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, and Björk.)

Thankfully, several female artists will play Coachella over its two-week span. Janelle Monáe, Kacey Musgraves, Lizzo, Maggie Rogers, and the K-Pop band Blackpink all secured spots in the festival. Another exciting addition to the list is transgender DJ Sophie, who’s produced music for Madonna and Charli XCX and earned a Grammy nomination this year for her own album Oil of Every Pearl’s Un-Insides.

Check out the full lineup for yourself, below:

“Humbled and excited as all hell @coachella thank u,” Grande wrote on Instagram to celebrate securing the gig.

It’s shaping up to be a busy 2019 for Grande. The singer is reportedly releasing another album—aptly titled Thank U, Next—early in the year and will embark on her Sweetener World Tour this coming March. Her song “Thank U, Next” is still holding strong at number one on Billboard‘s Hot 100.

“I’m really looking forward to embracing whatever happens and whatever comes my way,” Grande said in December while accepting the award for Billboard magazine’s Woman of the Year. “I’m really grateful for my friends and family, I love you guys so much. I’m really grateful for music.”

Coachella will take place over the weekends of April 12 and April 19, so mark your calendars. Click here for more information.

Pete Davidson Says He Cried With His Mom After Splitting With Ariana Grande


During a standup performance in Boston on New Year’s Eve, Pete Davidson revealed that he cried with his mother after splitting up with Ariana Grande.

This story comes from Us Weekly, which reports that the SNL comedian made several jokes about his short-lived relationship with Grande during his set. “It made me see how ugly people can get, and how cool people can be,” Davidson said, according to the publication.

Davidson and Grande started dating publicly in summer 2018 and quickly got engaged. Things took a turn, though, in October when the couple revealed they were breaking up. One month after this, Grande released her smash-hit single “Thank U, Next,” which name-checks several of her ex-boyfriends, including Davidson. He mentioned the song during his NYE standup set, joking that Grande was a “diabolical genius” for literally naming the men in her song.

“Thank U, Next” infamously debuted on Saturday, November 3, just 30 minutes before Davidson had to perform on SNL. Davidson told his friends at the time, “We all have to listen to this song and you all have to look at me. It’s gonna be rough.”

In early December, Davidson opened up about the bullying he’s experienced both online and off over his relationship with Grande.

“I’ve kept my mouth shut. Never mentioned any names, never said a word about anyone or anything. I’m trying to understand how when something happens to a guy the whole world just trashes him without any facts or frame of reference,” he posted to Instagram. “Especially in today’s climate where everyone loves to be offended and upset, it truly is mind boggling.”

Ariana Grande Has Canceled Her New Year's Weekend Show Due to 'Health Issues'


Ariana Grande fans will have to wait until a little later in 2019 to hear her sing live: The “Thank U, Next” singer has had to cancel her New Year’s weekend show, scheduled for Saturday night (December 29), in Las Vegas. Tickets for the performance, which would have seated just 3,200 concertgoers, were reportedly selling for more than $1,000 each. According to TMZ, Grande has been battling bronchitis all week and is still working on recovering from it.

The scheduled concert would have been her first since her breakup with her former fiancé, Saturday Night Live comedian Pete Davidson, in October and, preceding that, the death of her ex-boyfriend Mac Miller. Both exes had a role in inspiring two of Grande’s newly released songs: “Thank U, Next” and “Imagine.”

On Friday, December 28, Grande herself put up a post announcing the concert’s cancellation: “Vegas, I’m currently working through some health issues and am beyond sorry I won’t be able to see u this weekend. I love u and so look forward to seeing u and making it up to u next year,” she wrote.

Instagram

“Due to unforeseeable health reasons, Ariana Grande has canceled her show at The Chelsea at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas on Saturday, Dec. 29,” the venue confirmed to Us Weekly. “Guests are able to receive a full refund on tickets through their specified point of purchase.”

As of now, no makeup dates have been released, but Arianators won’t have to wait too long as her Sweetener tour kicks off in Albany, New York, on March 18. Until then, however, we’ll just keep watching her recent performances on The Tonight Show and at Billboard‘s Women of the Year event. Fingers crossed she feels better soon.
