Did You Know Ariana Grande's Nonna Majorie Was Oldest Artist Ever on Billboard Hot 100? Singer, Brother Frankie Mourn
Trigger Warning: This article contains references to an individual's death. Ariana Grande and her brother Frankie Grande are mourning the loss of their beloved grandmother, Marjorie 'Nonna' Grande, who passed away peacefully at home at the age of 99. The Grande family announced the news in a heartfelt statement on social media on Tuesday, June 17. "We are devastated to share that the beloved matriarch of our family has passed away," read the message from Ariana's mother, Joan Grande. "Marjorie (Nonna) Grande passed peacefully in her home and was surrounded by her family and loved ones for every moment of her last few weeks." The family also expressed gratitude for the support they've received: "We thank you for your love, support and for respecting our privacy as we grieve and celebrate her beautiful, extraordinary life." Ariana Grande honors 'Nonna' with a touching throwback post Ariana Grande paid tribute to her grandmother with a black-and-white photo from Marjorie's wedding to her late husband, Frank Grande. The singer captioned the emotional Instagram post with just one word: "forever." Marjorie Grande, affectionately known as 'Nonna,' had a close relationship with the pop star and played a special role in her life and career. She appeared on stage with Ariana in 2018 during her God Is a Woman performance alongside Joan and her cousin Lani. Ariana's brother Frankie Grande also shared his love for their grandmother with a moving Instagram post. 'I love you endlessly, my sweet Nonna,' he wrote. 'I miss you more than words can hold. My heart is shattered, but I feel you watching over me, already so proud of everything I've done and all that is about to come.' Frankie included photos and memories that captured their bond and showed the special connection he had with Marjorie. Marjorie Grande wasn't just a family figure; she also left a mark on Ariana's musical legacy. At 98, she became the oldest person to ever appear on the Billboard Hot 100, thanks to her feature on the track Ordinary Things from Ariana's Eternal Sunshine album, which debuted at No. 55 in April 2024. Ariana celebrated the moment on Instagram, writing: 'Celebrating the one and only, most beautiful Nonna who has now made history for being the senior most person to ever appear on the @billboard Hot100. We love and thank you.' Marjorie was often seen supporting Ariana's work. When Wicked was released in 2024, Ariana flew to her hometown of Boca Raton, Florida, to watch the film with her grandmother. Marjorie is survived by her daughters Joan and Judy, her grandchildren Ariana, Frankie, and Lani, and a legacy of love that continues through her family's memories and music.

Sabrina Carpenter Declares War on Mediocre Men With New Single ‘Manchild'
Sabrina Carpenter is not playing with you, your boyfriend, or his male fragility. Fresh off an unstoppable year of chart-topping hits, international tours, and award wins that could make any pop darling sweat through their Skims, the 25-year-old princess of pettiness is teasing new music, and yes, it's already giving iconic chaos energy. Following the global domination of 2024's Short n' Sweet, featuring viral anthems like 'Espresso,' 'Please Please Please,' and 'Taste,' Sabrina has officially entered her God Is a Woman, but She's Also Petty era. After casually sweeping the Grammys with two wins and adding a BRIT Award to her carry-on (yes, she's that booked), Sabrina is once again stirring the pot with a mystery drop that's got fans foaming at the mouth and straight men very nervous. On Monday, Sabrina posted a video to X (formerly known as Twitter) that sent her 2.5 million followers spiraling. In the clip, she's thumbing a ride in what can only be described as two square inches of denim and pure audacity while a sultry voiceover whispers, 'Oh boy.' It didn't take long before the stans, who have collectively earned their PhDs in Pop Cryptography, spotted a series of billboards cropping up along U.S. highways, each one tagged with a mysterious, male-directed phrase: 'Manchild' 'Hey Men!' 'Amen!' 'I Swear They Choose Me, I'm Not Choosing Them!' With slogans this spicy, is Sabrina launching an album or a gender war? Either way, we're ready for battle. For anyone just tuning in: no, this is not Sabrina's first time redefining the art of a slow-burn tease. If Espresso was her 'I'm the fun ex' anthem and Please Please Please was a flirty love letter to red flags, these new clues feel like the inevitable clapback. And while Miss Carpenter hasn't confirmed anything official yet, all signs are pointing to the pop star's 7th studio album being one part breakup therapy, two parts rotted male archetype slander, and one enormous viral moment waiting to happen. Naturally, fans are wondering who exactly this is about. And with whispers of a recent breakup with Irish actor Barry Keoghan floating around, the internet's detective work is in full swing. But knowing Sabrina, it might not be about a man. It might be about all of them. We don't have a title, tracklist, or release date yet, but speculation is out of control. Fan theories on Twitter (sorry, X) range from an EP titled Hey Men! to a full-length concept album called Manchild or Oh Boy. The phrase 'I Swear They Choose Me, I'm Not Choosing Them' is already trending on TikTok and may as well be printed on t-shirts by sundown. Let's be honest. The entire rollout is already giving Lana Del Rey if she did stand-up comedy. It's cheeky, mysterious, and smart as hell. If Sabrina's past year was her soft-serve era, delicious, flirty, and sweet, this next one feels like a knife in the cone. Aesthetic? Absolutely. Personal? Probably. Feminist performance art disguised as pop hooks? Almost definitely. So what's next? Another iconic single? A visual album? A full TED Talk on weaponized incompetence? Whatever it is, the vibes are immaculate, the shorts are illegal in some states, and Sabrina is once again proving she's that girl, not just because she can write a hit but because she can turn heartbreak into a highway campaign. Stay tuned. Stay unbothered. And if you're a man? Stay humble.

Ethan Slater caught on camera protecting Ariana Grande at 2025 SAG Awards
Ethan Slater was seen protecting Ariana Grande at the 2025 Screen Actors Guild Awards as the couple navigated through a crowded venue. A lip reader revealed to DailyMail that Slater, concerned about the pushing crowd, whispered to Ariana, 'Stay near, this crowd next to me, they are pushing me.' The moment was captured in a viral video shared by Deuxmoi, where Slater took Ariana's hand and led her through the audience. The God Is a Woman singer, nominated for two awards, wore a stunning ethereal pink gown inspired by her Wicked character. Meanwhile, Slater looked dapper in a black tuxedo. Photo: AP Photo: WireImage The couple, who met on the set of Wicked, has been in the spotlight since their relationship was revealed in July 2023, shortly after Ariana's split from Dalton Gomez. Their romance sparked controversy, as reports suggested Ariana had spent time with Slater's now-ex-wife, Lilly Jay, and their child before the relationship became public. Despite the backlash, Ariana and Ethan have remained strong, even reportedly moving in together. Their SAG Awards appearance comes amid recent attacks on Ariana by influencer Andrew Tate, whose derogatory comments sparked outrage among her fans.
