Ariana Grande-Butera (/ˌɑːriˈɑːnə ˈɡrændiː/;[1] born June 26, 1993) is an American singer, songwriter and actress. Her music, much of which is based on personal experiences, has been the subject of widespread media attention, while her four-octave vocal range has received critical acclaim. She has received numerous accolades throughout her career, including two Grammy Awards, one Brit Award, two Billboard Music Awards, three American Music Awards, nine MTV Video Music Awards, and 27 Guinness World Records.

Grande began her music career at age 15 in the 2008 Broadway musical 13. She rose to fame for playing Cat Valentine in the Nickelodeon television series Victorious (2010–2013) and Sam Cat (2013–2014). Grande signed with Republic Records in 2011 after label executives discovered YouTube videos of her covering songs. Her 1950s doo-wop-influenced pop and RB debut album,[2] Yours Truly (2013), topped the US Billboard 200, while its lead single, "The Way", reached the top ten of the US Billboard Hot 100. Grande's voice and whistle register on the album drew immediate comparisons to those of Mariah Carey.

She continued to explore pop and RB in her second and third studio albums, My Everything (2014) and Dangerous Woman (2016). The former experimented with EDM and achieved global success with its singles "Problem", "Break Free" and "Bang Bang"; the latter became her first of four consecutive number-one albums on the UK Albums Chart. Personal struggles influenced her trap-infused fourth and fifth studio albums, Sweetener (2018) and Thank U, Next (2019), both of which were critical and commercial successes. Sweetener won the Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album, and Thank U, Next broke the record for the largest streaming week for a pop album and was nominated for Album of the Year.[3] The singles "Thank U, Next", "7 Rings", and "Break Up with Your Girlfriend, I'm Bored" made Grande the first solo artist to hold the top three spots on the Hot 100 simultaneously and the first woman to succeed herself at the top of the UK Singles Chart. Her 2020 collaborations "Stuck with U" with Justin Bieber and "Rain on Me" with Lady Gaga helped her break the record for most number-one debuts on the Hot 100, the latter winning the Grammy Award for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance. Grande's RB-forward sixth studio album, Positions (2020), and its title track debuted at number-one in both the UK and US. In 2021, Grande earned her sixth US number-one single after featuring on the remix of The Weeknd's "Save Your Tears".

Often regarded as a pop icon,[4][5] Grande is one of the world's best-selling music artists, having sold more than 85 million records across all albums, singles, and collaborations, and all of her studio albums have been certified platinum or higher.[6] Among her Hot 100 records, she is the first artist and only woman to have five number-one debuts, to have their first five number one singles debut at the top spot, to chart three number one-debuts in one calendar year, and to debut the lead singles from each of her studio albums in the top ten. Having amassed 98 billion streams thus far, Grande is the most streamed female artist ever. She is also the most streamed female artist on Spotify and Apple Music, the most followed female artist on Spotify, and the most subscribed female artist on YouTube.[7][8][9][10] She has been included on Time's annual list of the 100 most influential people in the world (2016 and 2019) and the Forbes Celebrity 100 (2019–2020). Grande was named Woman of the Year (2018), the greatest pop star of 2019,[11] and the most accomplished female artist to debut in the 2010s by Billboard.[12][13] Aside from music, Grande advocates for gender, racial, and LGBT equality. She became the most followed musician on Instagram in 2019 and has also ventured into the cosmetics and fashion industries.

Early life

Ariana Grande-Butera was born on June 26, 1993, in Boca Raton, Florida.[14][15] She is the daughter of Joan Grande, the Brooklyn-born CEO of Hose-McCann Communications, a manufacturer of communications and safety equipment,[16] and Edward Butera, a graphic design firm owner in Boca Raton.[17][18] Grande is of Italian descent,[19] and has described herself as an Italian American with Sicilian and Abruzzese roots.[20] She has an older half-brother, Frankie Grande, who is an entertainer and producer,[21][22] and she has a close relationship with her maternal grandmother, Marjorie Grande.[23] Her family moved from New York to Florida before her birth, and her parents separated when she was eight or nine years old.[18]

When her parents were Florida Panthers season ticket holders, she was accidentally hit on each wrist by errant hockey pucks on two different occasions in 1998, sustaining minor bruises both times. The second occurrence happened during the Panthers' inaugural regular-season game at National Car Rental Center on October 9, 1998, in which she was also the first child to ever ride a Zamboni in the brand-new arena during the first intermission, the result of her parents' $200 winning bid at an auction.[24] A photograph of her on the Zamboni was featured in the South Florida SunSentinel the next day.[25] At age 8, she sang "The Star-Spangled Banner" at the Panthers' home game against the Chicago Blackhawks on January 16, 2002.[26]

As a young child, Grande performed with the Fort Lauderdale Children's Theater,[27] playing her first role as the title character in the musical Annie. She also performed in their productions of The Wizard of Oz and Beauty and the Beast.[19][28] At age eight, she performed at a karaoke lounge on a cruise ship and with various orchestras such as South Florida's Philharmonic, Florida Sunshine Pops and Symphonic Orchestras.[29] During this time she attended the Pine Crest School and later North Broward Preparatory.[30]

Career

2008–2012: Career beginnings and Nickelodeon

By age 13, Grande became serious about pursuing a music career, although she still concentrated on theater.[31] When she first arrived in Los Angeles, California to meet with her managers, she expressed a desire to record an RB album: "I was like, 'I want to make an RB album,' They were like 'Um, that's a helluva goal! Who is going to buy a 14-year-old's RB album?!'"[18] In 2008, Grande was cast as cheerleader Charlotte in the Broadway musical 13.[32][33] When she joined the musical, Grande left North Broward Preparatory School, but continued to be enrolled; the school sent her materials to study with tutors.[34] She also sang various times at the New York City jazz club Birdland.[35]

Grande was cast in the Nickelodeon television show Victorious along with 13 co-star Elizabeth Gillies in 2009.[36] In the sitcom, set at a performing arts high school, she played the "adorably dimwitted" Cat Valentine.[19][36] She had to dye her hair red every other week for the role, which severely damaged her hair.[37] The show premiered in March 2010 to the second-largest audience for a live-action series in Nickelodeon, with 5.7 million viewers.[38][39] The role helped propel Grande to teen idol status, but she was more interested in a music career, saying that acting is "fun, but music has always been first and foremost with me."[40] Her character was compared to "Brittany Murphy's performance as the hapless Tai in Clueless" and described as being "very impressionable and easily swayed" but "generally sweet".[41] She also played Miriam in the musical Cuba Libre, written and produced by American songwriter Desmond Child.[42]

After the first season of Victorious wrapped, Grande wanted to focus on her music career and began working on her debut album in August 2010.[43] To strengthen her vocal range, she began working with vocal coach Eric Vetro.[44] The second season premiered in April 2011 to 6.2 million viewers, becoming the show's highest-rated episode.[45] In May 2011, Grande appeared in Greyson Chance's video for the song "Unfriend You" from his album Hold On 'til the Night (2011), portraying his ex-girlfriend. She made her first musical appearance on the track "Give It Up" from the Victorious soundtrack in August 2011. While filming Victorious, Grande made several recordings of herself singing covers of songs by Adele, Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey, and uploaded them to YouTube.[46] A friend of Monte Lipman, chief executive officer (CEO) of Republic Records, came across one of the videos. Impressed by her vocals, he sent the links to Lipman, who signed her to a recording contract.[18] Grande voiced the title role in the English dub of the Spanish-language animated film Snowflake, the White Gorilla in November 2011.[47][48] From 2011 to 2013, she voiced the fairy Princess Diaspro in the Nickelodeon revival of Winx Club.[49]

In December 2011, Grande released her first single, "Put Your Hearts Up", which was recorded for a potential teen-oriented pop album that was never issued.[50] She later disowned the track for its bubblegum pop sound, saying she had no interest in recording music of that genre.[50] The song was later certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[51] On a second soundtrack, Victorious 2.0, released on June 5, 2012, as an extended play, she supplied vocals as part of the show's cast for the song "5 Fingaz to the Face".[52] The third and final soundtrack, Victorious 3.0, was released on November 6, 2012, featuring Grande duetting with Victoria Justice in the song "L.A.

"Positions" became her third number-one single in 2020 following "Stuck with U" and "Rain on Me", making Grande the first artist since Drake to have three number-one singles in a single calendar year and the first female artist to do so since Rihanna and Katy Perry in 2010.[225] Alongside the release of Positions, the song from the album "34 35" served as the second single off the album.

Artistry

Musical style and genres

Grande's music is generally pop and RB with elements of EDM, hip hop,[242][243][244][245] and trap,[246][247][248] the latter first appearing prominently on her Christmas Chill extended play. While consistently maintaining pop-RB tones, she has increased incorporation of trap into her music as her career has progressed[249] thanks to her work with record producer Tommy Brown.[250] She has worked with Brown on every album and stated that "one of the things I love most about working with Tommy is that none of the beats he plays me ever sound the same."[251] Grande learned how to sound engineer and produce because she loves being hands on during every project, and revealed that Mac Miller taught her how to work with Pro Tools.[252] Justin Tranter, a recent collaborator, felt inspired to see how involved Grande is in her music "from the writing to the vision to the storytelling and to even engineering and comping her own vocals."[253] She has co-written several of her songs addressing a wide variety of themes such as love, sex, wealth, breakups, independence, empowerment, self-love and moving on from the past.[254]

Grande's debut album, Yours Truly was complimented for recreating the RB "vibe and feel of the 90s" with the help of songwriter and producer Babyface.[255] Her follow-up, My Everything, was described as an evolution from her debut record with a new sound exploring EDM and electropop genres.[256] She followed her pop-RB sound on her third album, Dangerous Woman, which was praised by the Los Angeles Times for adapting to different styles with the reggae-pop "Side to Side", the dance-pop-influenced "Be Alright", and the fusion of guitar and trap in "Sometimes".[257] Her trap-pop sound is heavily featured on her fourth and fifth studio albums, Sweetener and Thank U, Next.[249] Elias Leight of Rolling Stone believes "with her new album Sweetener, she set her sights on conquering trap, savage basslines and jittery swarms of drum programming."[258] She also "embraces the sound of hard-bitten Southern hip-hop" exploring elements of funk music with themes of love and prosperity.[258][259] Craig Jenkins of Vulture wrote that Grande had changed and approached her style to trap and hip hop, filled with RB undertones on Thank U, Next,[260] with lyrics about breakups, empowerment, and self-love.[259] Her sixth album, Positions, expands on the RB and trap-pop sound of Sweetener and Thank U, Next, with topics about sex and romance.[261][262]

Grande credits Mariah Carey (left) and Whitney Houston (right) as her major vocal influences

Grande grew up listening mainly to urban pop and 1990s music[243] and says that "Over the Rainbow" was one of the first songs she remembers singing because "Wizard Of Oz was always my favorite movie when I was younger."[263] Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston are her biggest vocal influences: "I love Mariah Carey. She is literally my favorite human being on the planet. And of course Whitney [Houston] as well. As far as vocal influences go, Whitney and Mariah pretty much cover it."[263][264] Alongside Carey and Houston, Grande's other key influences include Celine Dion and Madonna.[265] She reflects on her childhood by posting videos of herself singing songs from Dion's 1997 album Let's Talk About Love on her social media.[266] Grande credits Madonna for "pav[ing] the way for me and also every other female artist" and admitted to being "obsessed with her entire discography".[267][268] She credited Gloria Estefan with inspiring her to pursue a music career, after Estefan saw and complimented Grande's performance on a cruise ship when she was eight years old.[269]

Grande praised Imogen Heap's "intricate" song structure and named Judy Garland as a childhood influence, admiring her ability to tell "a story when she sings".[259] Musically, Grande admires India.Arie because her "music makes me feel like everything is going to be okay" and loves Brandy's songs because "her riffs are incredibly on point."[259] Destiny's Child and Beyoncé are also major influences and inspirations in her career.[270] She has also expressed admiration for rappers who impact the music industry without a planned release date, telling Billboard, "My dream has always been to be—obviously not a rapper, but, like, to put out music in the way that a rapper does. I feel like there are certain standards that pop women are held to that men aren't. ... It's just like, 'Bruh, I just want to ... drop [music] the way these boys do."[246] It inspired her to release "Thank U, Next" without any prior announcement, which The Ringer called "more of a Drake move than an Ariana Grande move."[271]

Voice

Grande is a light lyric soprano,[272][273][274][275] possessing a four-octave vocal range[19][276] and a whistle register.[277] With the release of Yours Truly, critics compared Grande to Mariah Carey because of her wide vocal range, sound and musical material.[278][279] Julianne Escobedo Shepherd of Billboard wrote that both Carey and Grande have "the talent to let their vocals do the talking ... that's not where the similarities end. ... Grande is subverting it with cute, comfortable, and on-trend dresses with a feminine slant."[280] Grande responded to the comparisons, "[I]t's a huge compliment, but when you hear my entire album, you'll see that Mariah's sound is much different than mine."[270] Steven J. Horowitz of Billboard wrote in 2014, "With her sophomore album, the 'Problem' singer no longer resembles [Carey]—and that's okay."[279]

Mark Savage of BBC News commented, "Grande is one of pop's most intriguing and gifted singers. A magnetic performer with unrivalled vocal control".[19] In The New York Times, Jon Pareles wrote that Grande's voice "can be silky, breathy or cutting, swooping through long melismas or jabbing out short RB phrases; it's always supple and airborne, never forced."[281] Composer and playwright Jason Robert Brown addressed Grande in a 2016 Time magazine article: "[N]o matter how much you are underestimated ... you are going to open your mouth and that unbelievable sound is going to come out. That extraordinary, versatile, limitless instrument that allows you to shut down every objection and every obstacle."[282]

Public image

Grande cited Audrey Hepburn as a major style influence in her early years of fame, but began to find emulating Hepburn's style "a little boring" as her career has progressed.[283][284] She also drew inspiration from actresses of the 1950s and 1960s, such as Ann-Margret, Nancy Sinatra and Marilyn Monroe.[284] Grande's modest look early in her career was described as "age appropriate" in comparison to contemporary artists who grew up in the public eye.[280] Jim Farber of the New York Daily News wrote in 2014 that Grande received less attention "for how little she wears or how graphically she moves than for how she sings."[285] That year, she abandoned her earlier style and began wearing short skirts and crop tops with knee-high boots in live performances and red carpet events.[286] She also began regularly wearing cat and bunny ears.[287][288] In recent years, she began wearing oversized jackets and hoodies.[289][290] Grande's style is often imitated by social media influencers and celebrities.[291][292][293][294][295][296][297] After years of dyeing her hair red for the role of Cat Valentine, Grande wore extensions as her hair recovered from the damage.[156][298] Anne T. Donahue of MTV News noted that her "iconic" high ponytail has received more attention than her fashion choices.[299]

Although Grande drew criticism for alleged impolite interactions with reporters and fans in 2014,[300] she dismissed the reports as "weird, inaccurate depictions".[301] Rolling Stone wrote: "Some may cry 'diva', but it's also Grande just taking a stand to not allow others to control her image."[302] In July 2015, Grande sparked controversy after being seen on surveillance video in a doughnut shop licking doughnuts that were on display and saying "I hate Americans. I hate America. This is disgusting", referring to a tray of doughnuts.[303] She subsequently apologized, saying that she is "EXTREMELY proud to be an American" and that her comments rather referred to obesity in the United States.[304] She later released a video apology for "behaving poorly".[305] The incident was parodied by The Muppets[306] and featured in Miley Cyrus's Saturday Night Live cover of "My Way", about the regrets of the summer of 2015.[307] Grande herself poked fun at the incident while hosting Saturday Night Live in 2016, saying, "A lot of kid stars end up doing drugs, or in jail, or pregnant, or get caught licking a doughnut they didn't pay for."[19][308] In 2020, she said that she stopped doing interviews for a while out of fear that her words would be misconstrued and she would be labeled a "diva".[309]

Grande has a large following on social media.[310] As of July 2021, her YouTube channel has over 45 million subscribers and her music videos have been viewed a total of over 19 billion times;[311] her Spotify profile has amassed over 65 million followers,[312] making her the second most followed artist and most followed female; her Instagram account has over 255 million followers,[313] making her the third most followed individual and most followed female; her Twitter account has over 80 million followers,[314] making it the seventh most followed account; and her Facebook page has over 40 million followers.[315] In May 2021, Visual Capitalist ranked Grande as the world's top female social media influencer.[316]
