Life and career



1993–2008: Early life and career beginnings


Ariana Grande-Butera was born on June 26, 1993, in Boca Raton, Florida.[2][9] She is the daughter of Joan Grande, the Brooklyn-born CEO of Hose-McCann Communications, a manufacturer of communications and safety equipment,[10] and Edward Butera, a graphic design firm owner in Boca Raton.[11][12] Grande is of Italian descent,[13] and she refers to herself as an Italian American "half Sicilian and half Abruzzese".[14] Her name was inspired by Princess Oriana from Felix the Cat: The Movie.[15] She has an older half-brother, Frankie Grande, an entertainer and producer,[16][17] and she has a close relationship with her maternal grandmother, Marjorie Grande.[18] Grande's family moved from New York to Florida when her mother was pregnant with her, and her parents separated when she was around 8 or 9 years old.[12]


As a child, Grande performed with the Fort Lauderdale Children's Theater,[19] playing her first role as the title character in Annie. She also performed in the musicals The Wizard of Oz and Beauty and the Beast.[13][20] At the age of 8, 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, and she made her first national television appearance singing "The Star-Spangled Banner" for the Florida Panthers.[21] She attended Pine Crest School and North Broward Preparatory School.[22]


By age 13, she became serious about pursuing a music career, though she still concentrated on theater.[23] When she first arrived in Los Angeles to meet with her managers, she expressed a desire to record an R&B album: "I was like, 'I want to make an R&B album,' They were like 'Um, that's a helluva goal! Who is going to buy a 14-year-old's R&B album?!'"[12] In 2008, Grande was cast in the supporting role of cheerleader Charlotte in the musical 13 on Broadway,[24] for which she won a National Youth Theatre Association Award.[25] When she joined the musical, Grande left North Broward Preparatory School, but continued to be enrolled; the school sent materials to her so she could study with tutors.[26] She also sang various times at the New York City jazz club Birdland.[27]



2009–2012: Breakthrough on Nickelodeon




Grande in July 2011


Grande was cast in the Nickelodeon television show Victorious along with 13 co-star Elizabeth Gillies in 2009.[28] In this sitcom, set in a performing arts high school, Grande played the "adorably dimwitted" Cat Valentine.[13][28] She had to dye her hair red every other week for the role because the executive producer, Dan Schneider, did not want all the cast members to be brunettes, and the red hair was also a feature that the network felt would fit the personality of Cat. The show premiered in March 2010 to the second largest audience for a live-action series in Nickelodeon history with 5.7 million viewers.[29][30] The role helped propel Grande to teen idol status, but she was more interested in a music career, stating that acting is "fun, but music has always been first and foremost with me."[31] Her character was compared to "Brittany Murphy's performance as the hapless Tai in Clueless" (1995) and described as being "very impressionable and easily swayed" but "generally sweet".[32] The second season premiered in April 2011 to 6.2 million viewers, becoming the highest rated episode of Victorious.[33] In 2010, she played the role of Miriam in the musical Cuba Libre, written and produced by songwriter Desmond Child.[34]


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.[35] To strengthen her vocal range, she began working with vocal coach Eric Vetro.[36] She made her first musical appearance on the track "Give It Up" on the soundtrack Victorious: Music from the Hit TV Show 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.[37] A friend of Monte Lipman, CEO of Republic Records, came across one of Grande's videos. Impressed by her vocals, he sent the links to Lipman, who signed her to a recording contract.[12] She released her first single, "Put Your Hearts Up", in December 2011, which was recorded for a teen-oriented pop album that was not issued.[38] She later disowned the track for its bubblegum pop sound, saying that she had no interest in recording music of that genre.[38] The song was later certified gold by the RIAA.[39] Also in 2011, she voiced the fairy Princess Diaspro in 13 episodes of the Nickelodeon version of the Italian animated television series Winx Club, appeared in Greyson Chance's music video for a song called "Unfriend You" from his album Hold On 'til the Night, portraying Chance's ex-girlfriend, and voiced the title role in the English dub of the Spanish-language animated film Snowflake, the White Gorilla.[40][41]


On a second soundtrack for Victorious, Victorious 2.0, released on June 5, 2012, as an extended play, Grande supplied vocals for a cover of "Don't You (Forget About Me)".[42] After three seasons, Victorious was not renewed.[43] The finale aired in February 2013. The third and final Victorious soundtrack, Victorious 3.0, was released on November 6, 2012, featuring Grande duetting with Victoria Justice in the song "L.A. Boyz".[44][unreliable source] A music video of the song followed.[45] In December 2012, Grande collaborated on the single version of "Popular Song", a duet with British singer and songwriter Mika.[46] She also starred as Snow White in a pantomime-style musical theatre production called A Snow White Christmas, together with Charlene Tilton and Neil Patrick Harris at the Pasadena Playhouse.[47] Grande played Amanda Benson in Swindle, a 2013 Nickelodeon film adaptation of the children's book of the same name.[41][48]


Meanwhile, Nickelodeon created Sam & Cat, an iCarly and Victorious spin-off starring Jennette McCurdy and Grande.[49] Grande and McCurdy reprised their respective roles as Cat Valentine and Sam Puckett on the buddy sitcom, which paired the characters as roommates who form an after-school babysitting business.[50] The pilot aired on June 8, 2013, and the show was immediately picked up by the network.[51] The following month, Nickelodeon doubled Sam & Cat's original 20-episode order for season one, making it a 40-episode season.[52] Despite its success in the ratings, the series was canceled after 36 episodes.[53] The final episode aired on July 17, 2014.[54]

It's a confident, intelligent, brazen pop statement, mixing bubblegum diva vocals with EDM break beats".[100]Billboard's review noted that My Everything is not kid-friendly, like Grande's earlier efforts, and "pulled more sounds into her repertoire while keeping her biggest weapon, a remarkable vocal range, as a steady foundation."[101]




Grande on tour, 2015


On September 27, 2014, Grande was the musical performer on the season 40 premiere of NBC's Saturday Night Live, with Chris Pratt as the host.[102] Three days later, the third single from My Everything, "Love Me Harder", featuring Canadian recording artist The Weeknd, debuted on the Billboard Hot 100, later peaking at No. 7.[103] In November 2014, Grande was featured in Major Lazer's song "All My Love", which was released as the fourth single from the soundtrack album for the film The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1.[104] The same month, Grande released a Christmas song titled "Santa Tell Me".[105] Spending 34 consecutive weeks in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 in 2014,[106] Grande had the most top 10 singles of any artist that year.[107] She later released a fifth single from My Everything, "One Last Time", which peaked at No. 13 on the Billboard Hot 100.

As it is, Grande is so busy piling on the spectacle she neglects to highlight the one thing – those deceptively powerful pipes – setting her apart from her contemporaries."[113]


Grande was featured on Cashmere Cat's song "Adore", which was released in March during her Honeymoon Tour; a review in USA Today said: "Grande's towering vocals have never sounded better than on this offbeat R&B track."[114] Also in 2015, Grande guest-starred on several episodes of the Fox comedy-horror TV series Scream Queens as Chanel#2.[115][116] Grande filmed an episode for the Fox TV reality series Knock Knock Live, but the show was canceled before her episode aired.[117][118]

Grande released her third studio album Dangerous Woman on May 20, 2016; it debuted at number two on the Billboard 200,[143] number one in the UK,[144] number two in Japan,[145] and number one in several other markets, including Australia, the Netherlands, Ireland, Italy and New Zealand.[146] Nolan Feeney commented in Entertainment Weekly that Grande "pulls off pop, R&B, reggae, and house – all without overextending herself or pandering to trends".[147] Mark Savage, writing for BBC News, called the album "a mature, confident record".[13] At the Summertime Ball at London's Wembley Stadium in June, Grande performed three songs from the album as part of her set.[148] In August, Grande released a third single from the album, "Side to Side", featuring rapper Nicki Minaj, her eighth top 10 entry on the Hot 100, which peaked at number four on that chart.[149] The song's music video has been viewed more than 1.4 billion times.[150] The album and the title track were each nominated for 2017 Grammy Awards.[151]Dangerous Woman spent more than 100 weeks on the Billboard 200.[152]

Her agile soprano was strong and unconcealed in every song."[165] After Grande's concert at the Manchester Arena in Manchester, England, on May 22, a suicide bomber detonated an explosive in the foyer of the arena, causing 23 fatalities and more than 500 injuries.[166][167] Grande suspended the tour until June 7[168] and held a televised benefit concert, One Love Manchester, on June 4 at the Old Trafford Cricket Ground in Manchester, helping to raise $23 million to aid the bombing victims and affected families.[169][170] Grande, Justin Bieber, Katy Perry and other artists performed.[171] To recognize her efforts, the City Council named Grande the first honorary citizen of Manchester.[172][169] The tour resumed in Europe, Latin America, Asia and Oceania.[173] It ended in September 2017,[174] earning more than $71 million and selling over 875,000 tickets.[112]

Grande began working on songs for her fourth studio album with Pharrell Williams in 2016, but "the events in Manchester gave a hard reset to the project's expectations".[166] On April 20, 2018, Grande released "No Tears Left to Cry" as the lead single from the upcoming album, together with a music video for the song.[181] The song debuted at number three on the Billboard Hot 100, where it became Grande's ninth single to reach the top ten in the United States and made Grande the only artist to have debuted the first single from each of her first four albums in the top ten of the Hot 100.[182] She performed "No Tears Left to Cry" on the Tonight Show on May 1, where she revealed the title of the album, Sweetener.[183] The album was made available for pre-order on June 20, 2018, along with the promotional single "The Light Is Coming", featuring rapper Nicki Minaj.[184] The album's second single, "God Is a Woman", was released on July 13, 2018.[185][186] It peaked at number 8 on the Hot 100 and was Grande's 10th song to reach the top 10 on that chart.[187] The album was released on August 17, 2018.[188] Grande gave four concerts to promote the album, billed as The Sweetener Sessions, at New York City's Irving Plaza, The Vic Theatre in Chicago, Ace Theater in Los Angeles, and KOKO in London between August 20 and September 4, 2018.[189] The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200[190] and has received favorable reviews from critics.[191] Grande has scheduled a concert tour, the Sweetener World Tour, to begin on March 18, 2019, in Albany, New York.

Artistry


Musical style and genres


Grande's music is generally described as pop and R&B with elements of EDM and hip hop.[56][201][202] Grande said she grew up mainly listening to urban pop and 90s music.[201] Grande's debut album, Yours Truly was complimented for recreating the R&B "vibe and feel of the 90s" with the help of songwriter and producer Babyface.[203] The follow-up, My Everything, has been described as an evolution from her first album with a new sound exploring EDM and electropop genres.[100] The Los Angeles Times review of her third album, Dangerous Woman, commented that it is "impressive how fully she inhabits the emotional environment of each song here, even when one directly contradicts another. ... She's ... deft [at] adapting to different styles".[204]

Whitney Houston

Mariah Carey


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


Grande has cited Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey as her major vocal influences, saying: "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."[205][206] She describes Gloria Estefan as the person who inspired her to pursue a career in the music industry, after Estefan complimented a performance she saw Grande give on a cruise ship when she was eight years old.[207] She has also cited Fergie,[205]Destiny's Child, Beyoncé,[208]India.Arie and Brandy as influences or inspirations. She has praised Imogen Heap's "intricate" song structure and cited Judy Garland as being a childhood influence, admiring Garland's ability to tell "a story when she sings".[209]


Voice


Grande has a four octave soprano vocal range,[13][210] and the whistle register.[211] With the release of Yours Truly, critics compared Grande with Mariah Carey because of her wide vocal range, sound and musical material.[212][213] 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."[214] 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."[208] Steven J. Horowitz of Billboard wrote in 2014, "With her sophomore album, the "Problem" singer no longer resembles [Carey] – and that's okay."[213]


Grande's vocals have gained praise from Kelly Clarkson, Lady Gaga and Chris Martin.[215]Katy Perry said that Grande delivers "the best female vocal in pop music today. She has literally ... the best voice live."[216] Mark Savage commented in BBC News: "Ariana Grande is one of pop's most intriguing and gifted singers. A magnetic performer with unrivalled vocal control".[13] 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 R&B phrases; it's always supple and airborne, never forced."[217] Composer and playwright Jason Robert Brown addressed Grande in a 2016 Time magazine article:


.mw-parser-output .templatequote{overflow:hidden;margin:1em 0;padding:0 40px}.mw-parser-output .templatequote .templatequotecite{line-height:1.5em;text-align:left;padding-left:1.6em;margin-top:0}

[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. That voice – powered by nothing but your remarkable empathy, your ravenous intelligence, your cool discipline and your voracious ambition.[7]


Public image




Grande on the Dangerous Woman Tour, 2017


Grande's modest look early in her career was described as "age appropriate", compared with other pop stars who grew up in the public eye.[214] Jim Farber of 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."[218] That year, she began to wear short skirts and crop tops with knee-high boots in performances and on red carpets.[219] After years of dyeing her hair red to play Cat Valentine, Grande wore extensions.[166][220] Anne T. Donahue of MTV News called Grande "aesthetically relevant" and argued that her bold and whimsical fashion choices should receive more critical attention.



Grande's ponytail is ... as famous as her voice and ... a massive component of the pop culture zeitgeist. ... [W]hile pulling off a high ponytail takes courage and commitment, so does her recent [fashion] ode to Marilyn Monroe at the [2016] MTV Movie Awards and her homage to crime-fighting heroes in her 'Dangerous Woman' cover art. ... [S]he's boasted floor-length red gowns, chokers, crop tops, and oversize jackets [and] everything from theater garb (see: flapper dresses) to Mickey Mouse ears to A-line minis. Which, in an industry rich in self-branding, is a beautiful rarity ... deft whimsy. ... [D]ismissing Ariana Grande as a fashion force is an easy and lazy way of categorizing her. ... [F]ashion is best when it's an extension of self and a wearable form of expression. (Plus, we know that when we see someone take risks, they understand fashion on an intrinsic level...).[221]


Although Grande drew criticism for allegedly impolite interactions with reporters and fans in 2014,[222] she dismissed these reports as "weird, inaccurate depictions".[223] After considering the incidents most frequently mentioned in the press and the available evidence, PopSugar concluded that the incidents were "just normal star behavior" and "not the most ideal situation, but ... not exactly the sign of a diva".[224]Rolling Stone wrote: "Some may cry 'diva', but it's also Grande just taking a stand to not allow others to control her image."[225] In July 2015, Grande was 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.[226] She apologized, writing that she is "extremely proud to be an American" and that her comments related to American obesity.[227] She later released a video apology for "behaving poorly".[228] The incident was parodied by The Muppets[229] and featured in Miley Cyrus' Saturday Night Live cover of "My Way", about the regrets of the summer of 2015.[230] Grande mocked the incident herself on Saturday Night Live in 2016, saying "A lot of kid stars end up doing drugs, or in jail, or pregnant, or get caught looking at a doughnut they didn't pay for."[13][231]


Journalists and celebrities, such as Taylor Swift, Rita Ora and Selena Gomez, commented favorably on Grande's "empowering" 2015 essay posted on Twitter decrying the double standard and misogyny in the focus of the press on female musicians' relationships and sex lives, instead of "their value as an individual".[232][233] Grande noted that she has "more to talk about" concerning her music and accomplishments, rather than her romantic relationships.[234][235] In 2016, E! writer Kendall Fisher called her "a feminist hero" in an essay examining Grande's feminist statements.[236] The same year, Grande was listed among Time's 100 most influential people in the world.[7] She received praise for her "grace and strength" in organizing, hosting and performing at the One Love Manchester benefit concert.[237][238] Madeline Roth of MTV News wrote that the performance "bolstered courage among an audience that desperately needed it. ... Returning to the stage was a true act of bravery and resilience".[239]New York Magazine's Vulture section ranked the event as the No. 1 concert of 2017.[240] Also in 2017, Mitchell Harrison of Billboard magazine called Grande a "gay icon" for her LGBT-friendly lyrics, performances and "support for the LGBTQ community".[241] The same year, Celia Almeida wrote for Miami New Times:


[O]f all of pop music's biggest stars of the past 20 years, Ariana Grande has made the most convincing and seamless transition from ingénue to independent female artist. ... She saves the celebration of the joys of liberated sexual exploration for her lyrics. ... [S]he has traversed into mainstream-pop adulthood relatively unscathed. ... Grande [wrote in 2016]: "Expressing sexuality in art is not an invitation for disrespect ... just like wearing a short skirt is not asking for assault."[242]


Reception and accolades


Main article: List of awards and nominations received by Ariana Grande

Three out of four of Grande's full-length albums have been certified platinum by the RIAA.[243] Grande has been nominated for six Grammy Awards[151][244] and has won two MTV Video Music Awards,[245] three MTV Europe Music Awards[246] and three American Music Awards.[247] She has received twelve Billboard Music Award nominations.

Charitable activities and activism




Grande at the Worldwide Day of Play in 2013


At the age of ten, Grande co-founded the South Florida youth singing group Kids Who Care, which performed for charitable fund-raising events and raised over $500,000 for charities in 2007 alone.[263] In 2009, as a member of the charitable organization Broadway in South Africa, Grande, along with her brother Frankie, performed and taught music and dance to children in Gugulethu, South Africa.[264][265]


She was featured with Bridgit Mendler and Kat Graham in Seventeen magazine in a 2013 public campaign to end online bullying called "Delete Digital Drama".[266] After watching the film Blackfish that year, she urged fans to stop supporting SeaWorld and became a vegan.[11][267] In September 2014, Grande participated at the charitable Stand Up to Cancer television program, performing her song "My Everything" in dedication to her grandfather, who had died from cancer that July.[268] Grande has adopted several rescue dogs as pets and promoted pet adoption at some of her concerts.[269] In 2016, she launched with MAC Cosmetics a line of lip shades called "Ariana Grande's MAC Viva Glam", the profits of which benefit people affected by HIV and AIDS.[270][271]


In 2015, Grande and Miley Cyrus performed a cover of Crowded House's "Don't Dream It's Over" as part of Cyrus' "Backyard Sessions" to benefit her Happy Hippie Foundation, which helps homeless and LGBT youths.[272] Later that year, Grande headlined the Dance On the Pier event, part of the LGBT Pride Week in New York City.[115][273] In 2016, Grande joined Madonna to raise funds for orphaned children in Malawi.[274] In 2016, Grande and Victoria Monét recorded "Better Days" in support of the Black Lives Matter movement.[275] To aid the victims of the Manchester Arena bombing, Grande organized the One Love Manchester concert, donated a rerelease of "One Last Time" and her live performance of "Over the Rainbow" at the concert, and released a live album of the concert.[238][276] The total amount raised was reportedly $23 million (more than £17 million).[166][169]


In September 2017, Grande performed in A Concert for Charlottesville, benefiting the victims of the August 2017 white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.[277] In March 2018, she participated in March for Our Lives to support gun control legislation.[278]


Personal life


Health difficulties and religious beliefs


Grande has stated that she is hypoglycemic.[279] She has also said that she had Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and anxiety disorder following the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing. She commented on her social media that she almost pulled out of her performance in the 2018 broadcast A Very Wicked Halloween due to her anxiety.[280] Grande also declared she had received treatment from mental health professionals for more than a decade since shortly after her parents divorced.[281]


Grande was raised a Roman Catholic but abandoned Catholicism during the pontificate of Benedict XVI,[282] citing opposition to the church's stance on homosexuality,[11][283] noting that her half-brother Frankie is gay.[284] She has followed Kabbalah teachings since the age of twelve, along with Frankie,[285] believing "the basis lies in the idea that if you're kind to others, good things will happen to you."[286] A few of her songs, such as "Break Your Heart Right Back", are supportive of LGBT rights.[287]


Relationships


Grande met actor Graham Phillips in the cast of the musical 13 in 2008 and dated him until 2011.[288] From December 2012 to August 2013, she dated the comedian Jai Brooks, a member of The Janoskians.[289] In October 2014, Grande confirmed that she and rapper Big Sean were dating.[290] In April 2015, the couple ended their relationship after eight months.[291] She dated backup dancer Ricky Alvarez for less than a year beginning in mid-2015.[292][293] After recording "The Way" with Mac Miller in 2012, the two began dating in 2016.[294] The relationship ended by May 2018.[295] In May 2018, Grande began dating actor and comedian Pete Davidson.[296] The two called off their engagement and ended their relationship in October 2018.[297]

[a] [b] In some cases, that name has been selected by the individual, who may have originally been given a polynym ("multiple name"). In other cases, it has been determined by the custom of the country [c] or by some interested segment. In the case of historical figures, it may be the only one of the individual's names that has survived and is still known today.
