Ariana Grande Teases Her Upcoming 5th Album: 'It's Not Particularly Uplifting'

Ariana Grande opened up about a lot of things in her new cover story with Billboard – boys, splurges and best of all, her new album.

In the feature, the 25-year-old singer revealed that her next album has the working title of Thank U, Next and isn’t “particularly uplifting” at all.

Ariana adds, “A lot of it sounds really upbeat, but it’s actually a super sad chapter.”

One song in particular is called “7 Rings” and the story behind it is super cute.

“It was a… challenging fall day in New York,” she shares. “Me and my friends went to Tiffany’s together, just because we needed some retail therapy. You know how when you’re waiting at Tiffany’s they give you lots of champagne? They got us very tipsy, so we bought seven engagement rings, and when I got back to the studio I gave everybody a friendship ring.”

Ariana adds, showing off her ring, “That’s why we have these, and that’s where the song idea came from.”
