Watch: Ariana Grande wakes up in 'Twilight Zone' music video
1 of 5 | Ariana Grande released a music video Friday for her song "Twilight Zone." File Photo by Jim Ruymen/UPI | License Photo June 20 (UPI) -- Pop star and Wicked actress Ariana Grande released a music video for her song "Twilight Zone," along with an a cappella version of the track Friday. The music video begins with the elderly Grande from her Brighter Days Ahead short film watching a video of her younger self wake up. "Did I dream the whole thing? Was I just a nightmare?" she sings as she awakens. Grande takes in her ransacked surroundings and walks downstairs to find the area flooded. The video appears to be a prequel to the "Supernatural" video, released in May, which shows her leaving the home and walking through a ravaged residential area before being beamed up into an alien spacecraft. The a cappella version of her song was met with love from her fans. "Her voice is so unbelievably beautiful and soothing," one fan commented. "Her vocals are angelic." Grande released the deluxe version of her Eternal Sunshine album on March 28. Ariana Grande turns 30: a look back

Cynthia Erivo Misses Her First No. 1 By One Space
Cynthia Erivo's I Forgive You debuts at No. 2 on the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Albums chart, marking ... More her highest solo U.K. chart position yet. LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM - FEBRUARY 16: Cynthia Erivo attends the EE BAFTA British Academy Film Awards at the Royal Festival Hall, Southbank Centre, in London, on February 16, 2025. (Photo by Stringer/Anadolu via Getty Images) Cynthia Erivo's name appeared on music charts around the world late last year, thanks to her starring role in the musical blockbuster film Wicked, in which she played Elphaba. The second installment in the series, Wicked: For Good, is set for release in just a few months, in the fall of 2025, and it will surely become another box office smash. In between movie projects, Erivo has released a new solo album, one that has nothing to do with the Broadway title and instead, simply showcases her voice and talent as a vocalist. I Forgive You debuts on multiple charts in the United Kingdom this week, earning Erivo a very special career win by bringing her to heights she's never reached on her own before. Erivo almost landed her first No. 1 album in the U.K. this week, but misses out by just one spot. I Forgive You launches in the runner-up position on the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Albums chart. She comes in behind Lotus by Little Simz. That set, from the homegrown favorite, brings Little Simz back to the peak position on the genre-specific ranking for the fourth time. I Forgive You also launches inside the top 10 on another tally, the Official Album Downloads chart. On that list, which is focused only on pure purchases from platforms like iTunes, Erivo's latest kicks off its time at No. 10 on the download roster. Erivo scores her second solo placement on three of the five rankings on which I Forgive You debuts this week. The new project outpaces her previous effort, Ch.1 Vs. 1, on every list where it finds a home, bringing her to a new career peak on multiple rosters. I Forgive You opens at No. 13 on the Official Albums Sales chart and at No. 14 on the Official Physical Albums ranking. Erivo earns her first-ever appearance on the Official Vinyl Albums ranking this week. I Forgive You launches at No. 23 on the roster dedicated to the top-selling titles on wax in the U.K. As her new solo album debuts, one of Erivo's biggest hits — a Wicked classic — is also a bestseller again. 'Defying Gravity,' her collaboration with co-star Ariana Grande, returns to both the Official Vinyl Singles and Official Physical Singles charts, ranking inside the top 40 on the tallies once more.
