Ariana Grande RESPONDS to Nicki Minaj Coachella Mishap
Ari-Chella shut down Coachella Weekend 1 with so many shocks and surprises we are shook!
What’s up guys, it’s Sussan Mourad here for Clevver News - and I finally got some sleep last night after being up so late to watching Ariana’s Coachella livestream the night before. {BUT I mean, it's fine because with a performance like that, who needs sleep anyway?
OK you Guys, Ari tore up Coachella over the weekend and literally Tore Up Hearts in the process. She made history as she became the youngest female artist to headline Coachella and there were so many shocks and surprises, so I’m just going to dive straight in. (Yup, yup)
Incase for whatever reason you haven’t heard - Ari closed out the first weekend of Coachella with a Bang AND a Boy Band! Making every 90’s baby’s dreams come true, after some teasing in the days leading up to her performance, Ari brought out 4/5th’s of *NSYNC to join her on stage and life will never be the same. [punch in moment]
Although it might’ve seemed unexpected to some at first, fans had caught on to some of the clues posted to social media in the lead up to the performance and as Ariana had previously sampled *NSYNC's "It Makes Me I’ll" for "Break Up With Your Girlfriend," it made complete sense.
The group performed “Break Up With Your Girlfriend” with Ari, in addition to "Tearin' Up My Heart" which literally tore up hearts - taking the nostalgia to the next level.
"I've been rehearsing my whole f**king life for this moment" Ari shouted out to the crowd before launching into it.
Ari, us too. I think we had been waiting for it our entire life, but just didn’t know, until you gave it to us.
Since the onstage reunion, Ariana has been gushing how stoked she is about what went down, posting to instagram images of her and the boys, captioning,
QUOTE: “i’ll be recovering from this moment for the next twenty years tbh. the nicest human beings possible.
it can go either way when you meet your childhood heroes and no one has ever been kinder or cooler or sillier or more lovely to be around. ever!”
She also posted this image saying QUOTE “i am never going to stop posting about this unfollow me today”
The surprises didn’t stop there. Another shock surprise performance came from Diddy and Mase who performed "Mo Money Mo Problems" with Ariana as a tribute to late hip-hop artists Mac Miller (Grande's ex-boyfriend), Nipsey Hussle, 2Pac, and Biggie.
There were some sound issues during the emotional performance, but it didn’t affect the crowd getting into it as the audience held peace signs up in the air.
Diddy shared his love and support for Ari, encouraging the crowd to applaud her. “She’s been through a whole lot, but she’s still standing,” he said. “Give it up for the number one artist in the world!”
