Ariana Grande is just 21 years old, but she has been thrown in to the spotlight recently even though her career started back in 2011. Recently she made headlines when she showed up on the red carpet on the way to the Grammy’s with Big Sean. It was there that the young couple showed a little PDA that got the cameras flashing and the news articles flowing immediately. In 2013, she won the New Artist of the Year at the American Music Awards.
That award pushed her into elite status as a young singer and it was not long after that when she added another handful of awards during the 2014 awards season, including two at the Grammy’s where she won Best Pop Vocal Album and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance. A few of her songs have lasted more than 30 weeks in the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100 and she had the most top ten singles of any artist throughout 2014. Songs like “Break Free”, “Problem”, “Bang Bang” and “Love Me Harder” have been some of the most popular.
Hollywood news sites could not report enough on how good Ariana Grande looked at the Grammy’s in her Versace Spring 2014 gown. The makeup that she wore was perfectly done and then the focus was on her high ponytail that she wore for the night. As many young girls are now aspiring to look just like her. They are cruising to the store to find products that will make them look as good as she did that night.
Not only did Ariana Grande make headlines just walking down the red carpet with Big Sean, she also turned heads when she took the stage to perform at the Grammy’s. “Just a Little Bit of Your Heart” was the song and most of the media sites posted the video as soon as they could since the performance took the audience by storm. Most of us are going to remember Ariana Grande for her singing, but she is also knee deep into giving back to the community.
According to online sources, Ariana Grande has been working with a South Florida singing group called “Kids Who Care” performing at charitable events that brought in more than $500,000 in 2007 alone. In 2009, Ariana Grande made it to South Africa to perform music and dance with children and was joined by her brother Frankie for the event. Recently she was become a vegan and has been asking fans to stop supporting SeaWorld after watching “Blackfish”.
