格兰德阿丽亚娜’s “thank u, next” music video broke YouTube’s record for views in itsfirst 24 hours。这些数字并不令人惊讶或氟。自阿里亚娜(Ariana)令人印象深刻First Wives Club-inspired performance of“谢谢你,下一个”Ellen,and the teasers hinting at aMean Girls搭配,视频成为必看的活动。星期五,阿丽亚娜(Ariana)在Twitter上算上了它。我正在刷新时间表。下降后,社交媒体开始分析复活节彩蛋,客串和名人的回应,他们的电影得到了敬意。跟随“谢谢你,下一步”在最初的24小时很有趣。这就是为什么我对这些数字并不感到惊讶的原因。阿丽亚娜(Ariana)和她的团队可能也不是。

格兰德阿丽亚娜has been showing great work lately. She’s become a master at creating hype for her work in pop culture at large, not just her devoted fan base, and delivering on that hype. She’s doing all of that in a way that’s authentic and relatable. Again, it’s GREAT work. So, did she deliver with the “thank u, next” music video? The short answer is yes. See above record-breaking numbers. She recreated scenes from four classic female-led rom-coms from the early 2000s:Bring It On, Legally Blonde, 13 Going On 30andMean Girls.THESE FOUR MOVIES? Come on, it’s too good. These four movies are basically life-defining moments in every millennial girl’s life. We stan. In the behind-the-scenes footage from the video, here’s what Ariana says about the movies:

“We are basically recreating a bunch of my favourite scenes from classic girly early 2000s/ 90s movies that have shaped and molded so many of us into the strong, intelligent but still playful and girly women that we are.”

None of these movies are from the 90s but I’ll let her have this because she’s right. These movies did shape a generation of young girls, like Ariana is now. In each of these movies, the female lead ends up with a man at the end. Each of these movies –as feminist and positive as they are in their own ways—perpetuate the enduring notion that a happy ending must include a romantic partner. I like that Ariana chose these movies to accompany a song that dismantles this concept. The video was directed by Hannah Lux Davis and她与EW交谈他们对标志性的最喜欢的更改之一Bring It On场景。

“It was fun to throw Ariana-[inspired] twists on these iconic moments. For example, Torrance’s [Dunst] mixtape from Cliff [Jesse Bradford] in a scene fromBring It On她读到“从阿里(Ari)到阿里(Ari)。当她跌倒时,她没有进来,而不是另一个人来接她。这是自爱,对年轻女孩的好消息!”

It IS a great message.

我们知道这些敬意即将来临,但阿里亚纳(Ariana)能够引起一些惊喜,例如克里斯·詹纳(Kris Jenner)扮演Mean Girls’ Cool Mom, originated by Amy Poehler. That’s a perfect f-cking cameo. There are also appearances by Jennifer Coolidge, reprising her role inLegally Blonde,the OG Aaron Samuels Jonathan Bennett, Troye Sivan, YouTube star Colleen Ballinger (formerly known as Miranda Sings and also pregnant IRL), Ariana’s Victorious co-stars Elizabeth Gilles, Matt Bennett, Daniella Monet, and some others I’m sure I’m missing because I’m so young but not that young.

除了名人客串外,该视频还提供了八卦。lol赛事中心阿丽亚娜·格兰德(Ariana Grande),作为里贾纳·乔治(Regina George),经历了她自己的燃烧书。在翻阅这本书的过程中,我们瞥见了她写的关于她在“谢谢你,接下来”中呼唤的exe的文章。

(大)肖恩:太可爱了。所以甜(仍然可以得到it).

Ricky: Great dancer. Good times man. Friends forever.

Pete [Davidson]: Sry I dipped. I love u always. HUUUUGE.

I DIED at “could still get it” and “HUUUGE.” Ariana is keeping the same positive energy of the song while also providing some new info that we can run with like Big Sean still has a shot and Pete Davidson actually does live up to成为BDE背后的灵感。How nice of her. We also now know for sure that it was Ariana who broke off her engagement to Pete. I mean, we KNEW but now it’s 100 per cent confirmed through “sry I dipped.” LOL. I love her so much. My favourite thing about “thank u, next” is that it turned the break up song upside down. Calling out exes in a music video is nothing new (ahem, Taylor Swift) but the way Ariana does it here is somehow fun, playful and also respectful – a fresh take on calling out an ex in a music video.

我在视频中有一个小问题,这是我与Ariana遇到的问题经过认证的摩卡大格兰德。I think she spends too much time preoccupied with hitting her perfect angles and making every frame a flawless picture for Instagram. It’s very Mariah Carey of her. In the first half of the video, Ariana seems so caught up in looking pretty that some of the fun gets lost. Don’t get me wrong, she looks AMAZING, but she still would have looked amazing if she loosened up a bit and hit the choreography harder or let her face move around naturally. Once the video moves on fromMean GirlsandBring It Onthough, the personality that we’ve come to know and love from Ariana Grande shines.

She nails the emotion of Jenna in the13 Going on 30(这是我每年多次观看的一个被低估的杰作)娃娃屋场景,当她以埃勒·伍兹(Elle Woods)的身份卷起时,她已经完全承诺。另一个很棒的补充:Ariana作为Elle的阅读材料:

WE STAN. I’m also obsessed with Ariana’s take on the Bend and Snap, which is a slightly different than the move we saw inLegally Blondebecause they didn’t want to get sued. Still cute though.

The “thank u, next” video was released on Friday. Part 1 of the behind-the-scenes video followed. It’s Monday and we’re still dissecting and discussing this video. This is the best work of Ariana Grande’s career. I’m IMPRESSED.
