Is the Thank U, Next album coming sooner than expected?
That may be a possibility. Rumors of a new album, have been floating around on the Internet. This comes after Ariana Grande posted a snippet of herself and songwriter/producer Max Martin playing piano in the studio on Sunday (Nov. 11).
“Max martin — songwriter, producer, and my very own piano teacher. fun fact: we actually used that lil ass toy piano i’m playing in no tears left to cry,” the singer captioned. You can see in the video where both artists face the wall while playing together.
After the recent surprise release of “Thank U, Next” the singer confirmed that the smash hit is actually the title of her next record but was quick to shut down the rumors of an album coming this soon.
Grande’s latest tweet: Check out the video below!

Nicki Minaj had her eye on Micheal B. Jordan that night! Definitely did not hold back with her flirtatious comeback…
While on stage accepting the award for female artist of 2018 at Sunday’s People’s Choice Awards the rapper wasn’t shy about letting the audience in on her plans for the night.
She thanked her management and her fans for voting, Minaj, 35, finished off her speech with a big bang. “Shout-out to Donatella Versace for custom making this outfit for me,” she said with a sly smile, and shout-out to Michael B. Jordan because he’s going to be taking it off of me tonight.”
This weekend H.E.R released the second part of her ” I Use to Know Her” EP and lets just say whoever hurt H.E.R ( No pun intended) needs to drop their location because I just wanna talk. This heartfelt album is perfect for any girl who feels like she’s having second doubts about her relationship. The 8 track album literally takes you through all the emotions and thoughts you would have during and after a relationship. With most of these tracks being done with H.E.R playing a guitar any musician would be pleased with the production.
Right from the start H.E.R guards are up telling this certain person to not cross the line and make her fall in love with him if he’s not ready for something real. On the next track “Cant Help Me” H.E.R is apologizing to this important person for not being as transparent with them” Sorry that I’ve been living’ in my head, Holdin’ onto words I anit said yet”. While also telling them she’s losing control mentally and doesn’t want to blame them for her doubts on the relationship “All my problems I tried to put on you/ I can’t blame you for all my doubts”. Look H.E.R I can be your psychiatrist. I know most girls will relate to the track ” I’M Not OK” because every last one of y’all push your man away but be upset and emotional that he’s gone even though you’re the reason why.
Halfway through the album it seems like H.E.R has come to her senses after pushing away her man she realizes its heaven on earth with him on “Take You There”. This sometimes has to happen in order for that doubt to be relived ” Needed to distance myself from you/ Oh, just to know you are the truth/ with you, Heaven is a place on Earth” finally a girl who can admit its her fault the relationship isn’t working. Now this is what I like to hear after pushing her man away H.E.R is willing to risk it all on ” Hard Place”, this is what some of you females need to do more often. On this track she express how much she’s willing to risk for the relationship ” If I have to choose my heart or you I’m gonna lose” H.E.R is making me shed a tear.
Honestly for a beginning R&B artist H.E.R vocal skills are very vibrant and can put you in a vibe no matter what she’s talking about. The guitar and piano productions only add to her voice, which make the album a heartfelt vibe that most if not all girls will be able to understand on a emotional level. I’m looking forward to hearing more music from her because I’ve been in my feelings since I click play.
Bey is the latest celebrity to encourage fans to vote, but she has upset some followers with the timing of her Election Day message.
The popular singer shared a post on Instagram endorsing Democratic candidate Beto O’Rourke, who is running for Senate in her home state of Texas. On Tuesday, Beyoncé posted about how grateful she was to be politically active.
“We can’t voice our frustrations and complain about what’s wrong without voting and exercising our power to make it right. We need you,” she wrote, adding, “Every vote counts.”
Some people liked her message, but others not so much after she posting Tuesday evening, a little after 5 p.m. local time in Texas.
“R u kidding with this timing,” one person commented, while another wrote, “Really bey, you endorse him now … THREE HOURS BEFORE THE POLLS CLOSE!”
“WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG?!?!” added someone else.
Another person shared, “Soooo why didn’t you post this…literally any time sooner than right before the polls close? What a wasted effort. Your voice could’ve been exponentially more impactful on this election.”
However, there were some that came to her defense, with one person explaining, “She didn’t have to post at all lol chill.” Another wrote: “Y’all are ungrateful and raggedy. FOR REAL. Y’all can go to hell for trying to make this woman feel bad for doing good. STRAIGHT. TO. HELL.”
Although Beyoncé may not have specifically endorsed Beto O’Rourke ahead of Tuesday’s election, it was pretty much a given that she would never have thrown her support behind Ted Cruz. She has always made her political stance very clear and remains close with the Obama’s.
For what it’s worth, O’Rourke approved of Beyoncé’s endorsement, timing and all.
A little stumble or fumble… that did not stop the pop star as she continued on with her performance Wednesday on The Ellen Show.
The 25-year-old pop singer gave her first performance of her new breakup anthem “thank u, next” for the crowd, channeling the hit 1996 film First Wives Club for her all-white girl group ensembles with pals, Tayla Parx and Victoria Monet.
“One day I’ll walk down the aisle / Holding hands with my mama / I’ll be thanking my dad / ‘Cause she grew from the drama,” she sang. “Only wanna do it once, real bad / Gon’ make that s–t last / God forbid something happens / Least this song is a smash,” she sings fighting back tears
The ladies danced around to the tune on the stage, which was set up to look like a wedding reception.
Grande, at one point stood up on a chair, bopping to her song in white heeled boots, but when she stepped down, she stumbled and fell, you then hear her say “Oh my god!”
The slight slip up made her giggle but sure enough she didn’t stop as she went into the next verse.
After the performance ended, DeGeneres told Grande, “Thank you for being here. That was amazing! That was awesome. You’ve had a rough year. We all love you. We support you. Most importantly, the name of the CD is Sweetener—and you are all going home with her CD!”
The rapper is mourning the loss of one of his fans.
On Sunday, November 4th Drake took to Instagram to pay tribute to a young woman named Kay, whom he met through the Make-A-Wish program and with whom he formed a close bond.”Gonna miss you a whole lot,” the “Hotline Bling” star wrote. “We met through Make-A-Wish and we built a genuine bond you would text me and check on me while I was on tour and tell me positive things and share your dreams and goals.Drake also shared a picture of himself tearing up during one of his hospital visits with Kay.”I am crying in this pic but it was tears of joy cause we just prayed for you with your father,” he continued. “I am sorry I missed your text on my birthday that’s eating my soul right now but you know how much I loved you and was looking forward to seeing you after tour.”
At the end, Drake claimed he didn’t know why he was opening up about her death on Instagram. However, he claimed he just needed to “get it out cause it’s sitting heavy on my heart.”
