SPOTLESS REFERENCE
Ariana released her new album Eternal Sunshineon March 8, 2024.
She confirmed that her new album was inspired by one of her favorite movies, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
The 2004 science fiction romantic drama film starsJim Carrey, whom Grande has called “her first celebrity crush,” andKate Winslet, who undergo a procedure to erase each other from their memories following a breakup.
Ariana also revealed that she had a “childhood crush” on Jim Carey during aLive with Kelly and Michaelinterview in 2015.
To kick off her new musical era, Ariana released two singles ahead of her full album release.
Yes, And? was the first single from her seventh studio album.
She then posted a short videopromoting her second single, We Can’t Be Friends, on her Instagram.
The short clip is reminiscent of the movie Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and shows Ariana going over a consent form to have a person, presumably an ex, erased from her memory.
