* CreatorBacklash:
** Grande views her first single, "Put Your Hearts Up", as such. The song is noticeably different in its tone and themes from her other work and has a more childish and bubblegum-oriented quality to it. She has said in a 2014 interview with Rolling Stone magazine that she was miserable during the making of the music video, and called the song "straight out of hell". She felt it was aimed at the tween fans who would have watched her in ''Victorious'', causing it to feel [[SweetnessAversion overly-sweet and saccharine]]. This went against what she wanted in her music, hoping for a more mature audience. In particular, she spoke out against the video, where she looked uncomfortable, overly tanned and wore a princess dress. The song was never featured in her albums, and "The Way" can be seen as a reboot of her career. There's a reason the singer hasn't included the song with the rest in her VEVO certified account. [[TrollingCreator Hilariously, the video is still up but it's edited and glitched out halfway through.]] However, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0n_aqCcTVk&t=50m38s she later said]] "Everyone thinks I hate that record. I do not."
** She admitted that she wasn't always fond of her red hair, which she had to dye for ''Victorious''. Specifically, what was at first a very simple dye-job ended up resulting in a complicated bleaching procedure which not only took hours of additional prep but eventually ''destroyed her hair'' to the point where she had to wear a wig even off the set while her hair recovered (for example, any appearances outside of her Cat role with red hair was likely with the wig). Consequently she wore a red wig for the Cat role (rumor has it this was even a contractual condition for her to continue her role as Cat) and returned to being a brunette after ''Sam & Cat'' was cancelled.

** In only 6 days after she released her debut album, it hit #1 in the country, holding off competition from Tamar Braxton and Nine Inch Nails. [[IKnewIt We so called it]]. More impressively, what was expected to be a very close race between the three albums ended up with Ariana having a strong lead over Braxton's #2 album, larger than the one ''she'' had over Nine Inch Nails.

* SleeperHit: "The Way" is flat out described on Website/TheOtherWiki as an unexpected success. To clarify: Within seven hours of going up on iTunes, it was top of the download charts. It entered the Billboard 100 at No. 10 (By coincidence, this made Ariana the first artist since 2008 to enter the Top 10 with her first single). It peaked a No. 9, and currently is behind "Suit & Tie" by Music/JustinTimberlake featuring Music/JayZ and "Best Song Ever" by Music/OneDirection as the third-highest first-week sales figures. It has sold over 1.3 ''million'' copies alone in the US and spent 17 weeks in the charts, 13 of those weeks in the Top 15. This is all for her ''first song''. {{Foreshadowing}}...

At the time, Ariana was in a very turbulent relationship with [[Series/SaturdayNightLive Pete Davidson]] and had no idea where they would be when the song was released (broken up, as it turned out).

* CreatorRecovery: ''Sweetener'' serves as this due to Ariana recovering the trauma she suffered after the Manchester Arena bombing, her then-ongoing relationship with Music/MacMiller, which ended during the end of the album's production and then her new relationship with Pete Davidson, which she recorded a song about him just before the album was sent for mixing.
** Arguably, ''thank u, next'' is this too. Written and recorded in the months following Mac Miller's death, her break-up with Pete Davidson and being publicly groped by the bishop at Aretha Franklin's funeral, it's the most open and personal we've seen Ariana so far.

* GodNeverSaidThat: There's been a sustained rumor for quite some time by her fans that claims she said the title of the song “R.E.M.” stands for “Rest Easy MAC” and acts as a tribute to the late Mac Miller. However, CommonKnowledge would tell you that the song was originally Beyonces’ before being passed on to Ariana who put her own spin on it and was released a month before Mac Miller’s death. The title itself stands for “Rapid Eye Movement” in reference to the songs dream-like melodies.

* RealLifeWritesTheHairstyle: Her signature look of hair pulled back into a high ponytail came about when she had to keep her hair red for ''Series/{{Victorious}}'' and later ''Series/SamAndCat''. The years of dyeing damaged it, so wearing it in the ponytail was initially just to cover all the split ends.

* BreakupBreakout: ''Series/{{Victorious}}'' was one of Creator/{{Nickelodeon}}'s most popular live-action shows. After it ended in 2013, Ariana embarked on a massively successful music career as pop star, churning out numerous iconic hits in a short time and scoring platinum albums, and has never looked back since. Her meteoric rise has completely eclipsed the show itself, easily becoming the most successful star ever produced by Nick.

* BuryYourArt: "Focus" was originally going to be the lead single on ''Dangerous Woman'' (which was first named ''Moonlight'' at the time), but after mixed reception, was removed from the album and instead remained on the Japanese release only. It's not surprising she did this, as it sounds nothing like the other songs on the album. It probably didn't help that it debuted and peaked at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 and it didn't sell very well outside its first week.

More impressively, what was expected to be a very close race between the three albums ended up with Ariana having strong lead over Braxton's #2 album, larger than the one ''she'' had over Nine Inch Nails.Nails.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: "Thank U, Next" had several different opening verses prepared covering all kinds of relationship statuses. At the time, Ariana was in a very turbulent relationship with [[Series/SaturdayNightLive Pete Davidson]] and had no idea where they would be when the song was released (broken up, as it turned out).

Added DiffLines:

** Arguably, ''thank u, next'' is this too. Written and recorded in the months following Mac Miller's death, her break-up with Pete Davidson and being publicly groped by the bishop at Aretha Franklin's funeral, it's the most open and personal we've seen Ariana so far.

* {{Corpsing}}: When performing "Thank U, Next" on ''Ellen'', one part of the choreography had her getting up on a chair. She slipped off the chair and yelped "oh my God!" but kept on with the song - audibly chuckling as she sang the next couple of lines.



* FandomRivalry: Oddly enough with her own co-star Creator/JennetteMcCurdy. What doesn't help are the rumors that they didn't get along backstage which contributed to ''Series/SamAndCat'''s cancellation.
** Her fanbase does ''NOT'' get along with [[Music/MariahCarey the Lambs]]. This is mainly due to Ariana fans seeing her as a SpiritualSuccessor to Mariah Carey ([[BlatantLies or flat out refusing to acknowledge the similarities between the singers, despite Ariana admitting that Mariah influenced her]]) while Mariah's fanbase sees her as an [[{{Expy}} annoying knock off]] of their favorite singer.
* FriendlyFandoms: Ariana's fans get along with Music/TheWanted's fanbase pretty well since Ariana and Nathan began dating.
* HiccupHijinks: [[https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.reddit.com/r/ArianaGrande/comments/51032t/the_time_i_met_ariana_at_a_meetngreet_and_she_had/ During an after concert meet and greet gathering]] she apparently contracted a case of hiccups that went on for at least 40 minutes.
* IWantYouToMeetAnOldFriendOfMine:
** The music video for "One Last Time" features ''Series/{{Victorious}}'' co-star Matt Bennett.
** The voice of one of the news reporters you hear in the beginning of the same video is her ''Victorious'' co-star Elizabeth Gillies.
** Gillies, Bennett and Daniella Monet from ''Series/{{Victorious}}'' also appear in Ariana's "Thank U, Next" video.
* MemeticMutation: Because of Ariana's rather youthful appearance, a lot of people have joked that she looks 12.
** At the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in London, during a performance of one of her songs, she gets hit by a model's angel wings. Ariana's reaction to being hit has already gone viral. Here are a few examples: [[http://www.bustle.com/articles/52012-ariana-grandes-victorias-secret-reaction-face-is-meme-worthy-gold-so-youre-welcome-memes]], [[http://mashable.com/2014/12/03/ariana-grande-victorias-secret-fashion-show/]]



* SugarWiki/SheReallyCanAct: As it says in the main article, many people are surprised that she ''started out'' as a Broadway and television actress, having started out in an ''Theatre/{{Annie}}'' production as the title character among other things.

More impressively, what was expected to be a very close race between the three albums ended up with Ariana having strong lead over Braxton's #2 album, larger than the one ''she'' had over Nine Inch Nails.
* TastesLikeDiabetes: Another reason for her [[CreatorBacklash distaste]] for "Put Your Hearts Up." It didn't go to waste, though, as some of her fans still speak highly of it.
* TryingNotToCry: During a concert, she almost started to break down and weep during her performance of "Honeymoon Avenue" (The subject matter was ringing a bit close to home for Ariana as she had just broken up with her boyfriend Jai (pronounced "Jay") Brooks). You can view it [[http://youtu.be/32rVxVXdZ58?t=4m13s here]].
** She also had difficulty getting through her performance of [[Film/TheWizardOfOz "Over the Rainbow"]] at the 2017 concert for Manchester.
