Ariana Grande Shares Exciting News About Her New Album in the Studio
Trending on Billboard
Ariana Grande is back in the studio, sparking excitement among fans about her upcoming eighth album. The pop star confirmed her return with a series of behind-the-scenes photos shared on Instagram on Wednesday, April 8.
The images capture Grande in the recording booth and working on audio files at her computer. One intriguing photo features a dark, greenish-gray print of pressed flowers, potentially teasing the aesthetic of her new project.
Fans wasted no time expressing their enthusiasm in the comments section. “Yes, please!” wrote fellow artist Lizzo.
“ITS HAPPENING,” exclaimed one fan, while another added, “AG8 IS COMING.”
Grande’s last studio album, Eternal Sunshine, was released in 2024 and topped the Billboard 200 for three weeks. Last year, she added several tracks to the album for a deluxe version.
Though two years might seem lengthy for some fans, many believed Grande would focus on acting after her previous comments suggesting a hiatus from music. However, earlier this month, fans noted a shift when she updated the outgoing message for her Brighter Days hotline, hinting at new music on the horizon.
In the message, she expressed eagerness for the upcoming Eternal Sunshine tour, which begins in June, adding, “We’re counting down the 8s — oops! I mean, the days.”
