Thank You,Next

On November 3, Ariana Grande released a long-awaited video to her song ‘Thank You, Next’. Before the video was even released, Ariana was in the public’s eye due to the loss of her ex boyfriend and recent break from her engagement with SNL star, Pete Davidson. Grande’s ‘Thank You, Next’ video is filled with stars such as past cast mates from the show ‘Victorious’ and even Kris Jenner.  The video pays homage to the movies ‘Mean Girls’, ‘Legally Blonde’, ‘Bring it On’, and ‘13 Going on 30’. The video and lyrics include inside jokes, images and references to past boyfriends, and pop culture references. It’s close to impossible to scroll through your feed on social media and not see a post with the words “thank you, next” no matter what the context.
