Yesterday on The Late Late Show, James Corden and Ariana Grande took on the legendary roles of Jack and Rose in Titanic and turned their Oscar-winning film into a 5-minute musical. It is such a grande hit, you can say it as big of a hit as when the thought-to-be-unsinkable boat hit the iceberg. Too soon?
Seriously, Grande should consider releasing an album full of ’70s and ’80s covers because she has the vocals for it. I wonder how many of the songs that they sang together, she actually heard of before he asked her to sing them with him? She is like Hall & Oates who?
I will never be able to listen to Vanilla Ice’s Ice Ice Baby the same way again. To see what other tunes they belted out on the CBS late night talk show, then click here!
Just weeks after Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson started dating, made it Instagram official and he got some ink in her honor, Us Weekly is reporting that they are engaged.
Even though they rushed into an engagement, they are not rushing to have a wedding. A source told the magazine, they are looking forward to a long engagement.
The two have something in common. The SNL comedian lost his father on 9/11 and the singer as we know had just finished her show in Manchester when a bomb went off. They share a pain that most people cannot understand and you need someone who understands what you are going through to get over something that you never can.
Congrats to the two! Just one piece of advice, don’t have any donuts at the reception!
Have you ever seen Ariana Grande without her ponytail? I don’t think I have either, but she let it all hang down for British Vogue. Because of that, she is completely unrecognizable. It is a nice change.
It shows us how much she has grown up because of an unforeseeable manmade disaster. When they asked her about suffering PTSD from the bombing at her concert in Machester last year, she told them, “It’s hard to talk about because so many people have suffered such severe, tremendous loss. But, yeah, it’s a real thing” The singer added, “I know those families and my fans, and everyone there experienced a tremendous amount of it as well. Time is the biggest thing. I feel like I shouldn’t even be talking about my own experience – like I shouldn’t even say anything. I don’t think I’ll ever know how to talk about it and not cry.”
You can tell she has survivor’s remorse, which is natural, but she should know it was not her fault. It could have, unfortunately, happened to any musician, but it happened to her. I am sorry for her. I am sorry for the families. And most importantly, I am sorry it happened at all. When will these bombers learn their mission is never accomplished because we are not afraid of them. We will remember the innocent people killed in the attack, but we will not remember them or why the did it. Therefore, they failed. They are failures. Sadly, the real losers are the families who lost loved one and the surviving victims who will never be the same.
Madame Tussauds Las Vegas released a photo of their new wax figure and it is of Ariana Grande. At least they say that who is it? To me it looks more like if Sarah Jessica Parker, Jennifer Lopez and Ashley Tisdale all got together and made a baby. Which now that I think about, isn’t that pretty much what the Bang Bang singer is?
You know what that life-size candle is missing? A donut! Then it would be perfect.
Apple Music picked up The Late Late Show’s Carpool Karaoke to series. Instead of having James Corden in the driver’s seat, they have several other celebs chauffeuring around musicians. Coming up Seth MacFarlane and Ariana Grande tour Hollywood while singing duets from Broadway musicals like Little Shop of Horror. Here is the two of them belting out the climatic ballad Suddenly Seymour like they were that Seymour and Audrey finally declaring their love for each other in that heartwarming scene. All while Audrey II sat in the backseat thinking how yummy their blood would taste!
While Grande gave a grand performance, she is no Ellen Green. But she has come the closest I have ever seen anyone woman who has tried to sing her part. Maybe Greg Berlanti should watch this Carpool Karaoke and cast Grande as Audrey instead of Rebel Wilson, who is so not the lead. Yes Grande is too young for the role, but the donut licker is a million times better than Rebel. And while they are at it, they also need to dump Josh Gad for another Josh as in Groban. They would be a better Audrey and Seymour than the two that they are talking to for the big screen remake that does not need to happen.
Sorry, Little Shop and Hair are my favorite musicals, so I am very sensitive whenever anyone tries to mess with them. And casting those two would totally be messing with the feel of the show. Rebel is no temptress, she is more cute than sexy. While Gad might be a nerdy, nebishy Jew, he is just not Seymour. At this rate they will probably cast Seth Rogen and James Franco as the Dentist and his patient who is a masochist.
OK, now I am pissed. Time to relisten to MacGrande sing Suddenly Seymour again to make me happy. And try to forget that Seth forever ruined Somewhere That’s Green for me thanks to what he did with the tune on Family Guy.
