13 Reasons Why We Love Ariana Grande
This gorgeous girl never stops having fun.
Most people know Ariana Grande as a multi-talented actress and Grammy-nominated music phenomenon. She regularly sells out concert arenas around the world and with nearly 30 million Twitter followers, Ariana is one of the few superstars to qualify for entertainment’s A+ List.
Her latest album, My Everything, has become an international sensation and spawned five smash singles to date — putting her in a league with Michael Jackson and Katy Perry.
As Republic Records Executive Vice President Charlie Walk explains:
“The way you get five hits is to have five strong songs that could all be first singles.”
Of course, there are many, MANY more reasons to love Ariana than just her talent. While we could make an indefinite list, we’ve chosen 13 of our favorites and posted them below.
Take a look.
1. HER VIDEOS ARE AWESOME

Ariana’s videos regularly rack up hundreds of millions of views on YouTube. They don’t just feature amazing songs, but also tell a story… and they have mind-blowing special effects. Check out her latest for the hit One Last Time above.
2. SHE HAS A LOVABLE GOOFY SIDE
She has been able to find the perfect life balance of hard work and play. We love Ariana for her willingness to show off her lighter side.
3. HER UNCONDITIONAL LOVE FOR HER PETS
If you’re a stray dog, it might be a good idea for you to stroll by Ariana and give her a smile. She is known to be a devoted canine lover and she’s not afraid to care for six at one time!
Ariana doesn’t just own pets, she truly LOVES them and gives them oodles of attention… as any follower of hers on Instagram can confirm.
4. SHE SUPPORTS THE RIGHTS OF ALL ANIMALS
After watching the documentary Blackfish in 2013, Ariana tweeted that she will never go to SeaWorld again. Soon after, she announced that she is becoming 100% vegan.
We think it’s terrific that Ariana’s stance is making a difference in how animals are treated throughout the world.
5. HER VOICE WILL LEAVE YOU IN AWE
If every other young pop star could auto-tune their voice to sound like Ariana’s, they’d have a storied career. Some people have called Ariana the next Mariah Carey… We think she’s better. Her powerful voice is THAT good.
Catch Ariana live at one of her remaining tour dates and you’ll see what we’re saying is true.
6. SHE HAS THE CUTEST DIMPLES
There’s no denying that her dimples are adorable. We challenge you to look at the above picture and not smile. It can’t be done.
7. SHE’S CUTTING EDGE
She is one of the first to take advantage of the technology in Mi.Mu gloves that can control a user’s musical sound and visuals. A willingness to take risks is one of Ariana’s greatest traits.
8. HER BIG BROWN EYES
Wowza, look at those beautiful peepers! Ariana has definitely won the genetic lottery.
9. SHE GIVES BACK TO HER COMMUNITY
Ariana has supported numerous causes and charities including the Make-A-Wish Foundation, Stand Up to Cancer and the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation.
There’s no doubt that she has a huge heart.
10. SHE’S THE SEXIEST POP STAR IN THE WORLD
That’s not just my opinion.
FHM announced their 2015 list of the 100 Sexiest Women in the World and Ariana came in at #6… beating out all other pop stars including Rihanna, Katy Perry and Beyonce.
The issue goes on sale April 30th. We highly suggest you check it out.
11. HER TIRELESS WORK ETHIC
Sure, Ariana is busy recording new music and touring the world, but that doesn’t stop her from squeezing in a little thing like a starring role on a new TV series into her schedule.
Creator Ryan Murphy just tweeted out the first look of Ariana appearing in the upcoming comedy-horror anthology, Scream Queens. The show premieres this fall on FOX so get your DVRs ready.
12. SHE’S A BAD ASS
Tattoos just rock.
Ariana recently showed off her latest tat depicting a moon. Last month, she got the words “mille tendresse” permanently inked on the back of her neck — and she has a few others as well. We say keep ’em coming.
