Ariana Grande Is Getting Into The Groove

"Eternal Sunshine" was Grande's first album since the announcement of her split from former husband, Dalton Gomez.

Earlier this winter, the "We Can't Be Friends (Wait For Your Love)" songstress sat down for an intimate interview with Zach Sang wherein she discussed the internet buzz surrounding her personal life. The "Breathin'" singer addressed her hopes that the record would satiate their curiosity.

"The loss and grief that you hear some of the album, some of the heartbreak stuff, there was so much love and transparency," she said at the time. "That was something I really wanted to make sure was captured, wasn’t like a ‘f-ck you’ at all and ever," Grande stressed.

The "Boy Is Mine" singer also candidly shared her thoughts on the influence of tabloids, stressing the selective nature of their content.

"We selectively leave space for humanness, for nuance, they don’t leave space for that—well, they do for their friends and family. It’s selective. They [tabloids]  turn it off when that aligns with the version of a person that they have in their head that they want to believe is true," she continued. "But I don’t say this for them. I say it for my fans and myself.”

The "Yes, And?" singer made headlines earlier this year for her whirlwind romance with "Wicked" co-star Ethan Slater.

The Broadway star filed for divorce from his long-term partner, wife Lily Jay last year, and the pair's divorce was finally finalized last month, as previously reported by The Blast. The former couple had been married for five years.

Grande recently spoke out about her relationship with Slater for the first time. Discussing the tabloid frenzy around the pair's romance, she vehemently defended Slater's character.

“There couldn’t be a less accurate depiction of a human being than the one that the tabloids spread about him,” she told Vanity Fair, per The Daily Beast, adding, “No one on this earth tries harder or spreads themselves thinner to be there for the people that he loves and cares about.”

Fans will finally be able to witness Grande and Slater together on the big screen when the first installment of "Wicked" is released on November 22nd!
