Grande auditioned for the Nickelodeon television show
Victorious in New York along with 13 co-star Elizabeth
Gillies in 2009.[22] In this sitcom set in a performing arts
high school, Grande was cast as Cat Valentine.[22] Grande
had to dye her hair red every other week for the role
because the executive producer, Dan Schneider, did not
want all cast members to be brunettes, and the red hair
was also a feature that the network felt would t the personality of Cat.[23] The show began lming in October
2009 and premiered on March 27, 2010 to the second
largest audience for a live-action series in Nickelodeon
history with 5.7 million viewers.[24][25] The role helped
propel Grande to teen idol status, but she was more interested in a music career stating that acting is fun, but
music has always been rst and foremost with me.[26]
Her character was compared to "Brittany Murphy's performance as the hapless Tai in Clueless" (1995) and described as being very impressionable and easily swayed
but generally sweet.[27] Season two premiered on April
2, 2011 to 6.2 million viewers, becoming the highest
rated episode of Victorious.[28] In 2010, she played the
role of Miriam in the musical Cuba Libre, which was written and produced by songwriter Desmond Child.[16]

certied gold by the RIAA.[33] Also in 2011, she voiced

a duet with British singer and songwriter Mika.[39] She

Meanwhile, Nickelodeon created an iCarly and Victorious
spin-o starring Jennette McCurdy and Grande.[41]
The buddy sitcom, titled Sam & Cat, paired Grande
and McCurdy as roommates who form an after-school
babysitting business, reprising their respective roles as
Cat Valentine from Victorious and Sam Puckett from
iCarly.[42] The pilot aired on June 8, 2013, and the show
was immediately picked up by the network.[43] The following month, Nickelodeon doubled Sam & Cat's original
twenty-episode order for season one, making it a fortyepisode season.[44] Despite its success in the ratings, the

Grande released her second studio album My Everything
on August 25, 2014, with Rolling Stone magazine writing that "My Everything is where the 21-year-old Nickelodeon starlet grows up. Its a condent, intelligent,
brazen pop statement, mixing bubblegum diva vocals
with EDM break beats.[80] It sold 169,000 copies in its
rst week and debuted atop the Billboard 200, becoming
her second consecutive No. 1 album in the US.[81] Its lead

review noted that the album is not kid-friendly, like her
earlier eorts, and stated:
[S]he has pulled more sounds into her
repertoire while keeping her biggest weapon, a
remarkable vocal range, as a steady foundation.
... My Everything is a less cohesive project than
Yours Truly, although its best moments eclipse
the highs of Grandes 2013 debut. The singles
Problem and Break Free remain dizzying
dance tunes, and back-to-back solo songs One
Last Time and Why Try possess the types
of awless melodies that are typically reserved
for the worlds biggest pop divas. The back half
of the albums many collaborations are hit-ormiss.[90]
On September 27, 2014, Grande was the musical performer on the season 40 premiere of Saturday Night

PERSONAL LIFE AND OTHER WORK

several later stops in Asia and South America.[96] The

tour earned $14 million in its rst 25 performances, selling 290,699 tickets.[97] Following the tours early success,
more dates were added,[98] and the tour concluded in October 2015 after a total of nearly 90 dates.[99] Reviews of
the tour performances generally praised Grandes vocals
and ability to convey emotion in the songs but found the
concerts to be over-produced: "[S]ome judicious editing
would've elevated the evening from surprising to satisfying and possibly even shockingly good. As it is, Grande
is so busy piling on the spectacle she neglects to highlight
the one thing those deceptively powerful pipes setting
her apart from her contemporaries.[100]

Artistry
Musical style and inuences

Grandes music is generally pop and R&B, and has elements of funk, dance and hip hop.[48][141] Grande said
she grew up mainly listening to urban pop and 90s music.[141][142] Her music was originally aimed at young audiences with the bubblegum pop single Put Your Hearts
Up, which was recorded amid plans for a teen pop debut
album.[32] Yours Truly is described as being half a throwback to the R&B music of the 1990s; Grande describes
the second half as something that is very unique and very
special that I've sort of written that is completely original. In summation of the record, she stated: So half
of it is a throwback and like very familiar feeling, feel
good, and then half of it is something that I've created
thats sort of special and unique and refreshing and wonderful and I love it.[143] Her doo-wop-inspired debut album was complimented for recreating the R&B vibe and
feel of the 90s with the help of nineties R&B hit maker
Babyface.[144] The follow-up My Everything (2014) is de-

Mariah Carey, one of Grandes vocal inuences

scribed as an evolution from her rst album with a new

sound exploring EDM and electropop genres.[80]
I love Mariah Carey. She is literally my favorite human
being on the planet. And of course Whitney [Houston] as
well. As far as vocal inuences go, Whitney and Mariah
pretty much cover it. I love Fergie as well. Shes just so
fun and passionate. I love that she raps as well. Like, she
has a fantastic voice and she can belt Gs and As and she
doesn't have to do it all the time. She just has swag and I
think thats really cool.
Grande, on her musical inuences.[145]
Grande has cited Cuban-American star Gloria Estefan as
the person who inspired her to pursue a career in the music industry, after Estefan complimented a performance
she saw Grande give on a cruise ship when she was eight
years old.[146] Grande cites Whitney Houston as a major
inuence on her career, stating that Houston has inspired
her endlessly since she was a child.[147] Grande also described Houston as the reason why she began singing, as
well as citing Brandy Norwood as an inuence, noting her
ris in particular.[148]
She has also cited Madonna, Destinys Child, Fergie,
Christina Aguilera, India.Arie, Imogen Heap, and Amy
Winehouse as inuences.[142][145][149][150] Grandes debut album was inspired by artists like Amy Winehouse,
Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Alicia Keys, Christina
Aguilera, Katy Perry, and Madonna, with unreleased
collaborations with SkyBlu of LMFAO, 3OH!3, Kool

Kojak, and Pebe Sebert.[151][152][153] She named Keys,

Carey and Beyonc as female artists she tried to channel during the three years it took to create the record.[154]
Grande described Imogen Heap as one of her inuences,
noting Heaps intricate song structure. She also cites
India.Arie as an inuence, calling Aries voice heaven
and praising her lyrical content.[148] She has described actress and singer Judy Garland as being one of her childhood inuences, stating that she grew up watching and
listening to Garland, as well as praising her ability to tell
a story when she sings.[148] Grande has stated that Big
Sean, whom she dated from 2014 to 2015, is her favorite
rapper and collaborator.[141][155]

3.2

Voice

Grande possesses a four-octave and a semitone soprano

vocal range,[156][157] and the whistle register.[158] With the
release of her debut album, Yours Truly (2013), Grande
has been deemed the mini Mariah Carey and the new
Mariah Carey by critics because of her wide vocal range,
sound and musical material.[159][160][161] Speaking on the
comparisons, Julianne Escobedo Shepherd of Billboard
wrote that both Carey and Grande got the talent to
let their vocals do the talking.[162] Shepherd continued,
thats not where the similarities end. [...] Grande is subverting it with cute, comfortable, and on-trend dresses
with a feminine slant.[162] Grande expressed her feelings
towards being compared to Mariah Carey as a huge compliment and a blessing,[149][163] and often cites both
Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston as inuences for her
work.[16][142][145] In another interview, she said: I mean,
its a huge compliment, but when you hear my entire album, you'll see that Mariahs sound is much dierent than
mine.[149] Her vocal display at the 2013 American Music
Awards, earned praise from celebrities like Kelly Clarkson and Lady Gaga, which saw Grande singing a cappella
to her hit The Way and a Motown-style performance
of Tattooed Heart.[164] During an interview with Sirius
XM, American pop singer Katy Perry praised Grande,
saying she has the best female vocal in pop music today.
She has literally the best voice, the best voice live.[165][166]
In an interview with Ryan Seacrest, Coldplay's frontman Chris Martin also commended Grandes vocal ability
when he was asked if a duet with her was a possibility, to
which he said I would man, but she can sing so much
better than me. I dont want to be humiliated in that fashion, I was in the car yesterday and Problem was on, I
was like, I just cant do that."[167] Steven J. Horowitz of
Billboard feels that it is time to stop comparing Grande
to Carey stating, With her sophomore album, the Problem singer no longer resembles the elusive chanteuse
and thats okay.[161]

4 Public image
Grandes modest look early in her career was described
as age appropriate compared with other pop stars who
grew up in the public eye.[162] Jim Farber of New York
Daily News wrote that Grande receives less attention for
how little she wears or how graphically she moves than
for how she sings.[168] In contrast to other young female artists like Miley Cyrus, Iggy Azalea, and Rihanna,
Grande stated that she wants people to listen to her music instead of look and judge": I don't feel condent in
my sexuality or in my fashion. Its just not in my mind.
I think of music rst.[168] By 2014, however, she opted
to wear short skirts and crop tops with white knee-high
boots in performances and on red carpets.[169]
Although Grande drew criticism for allegedly impolite interactions with reporters and fans in 2014,[170] she dismissed these reports as weird, inaccurate depictions of
her personality.[171] After considering the incidents most
frequently mentioned in the press and the available evidence, PopSugar concluded that Grandes behavior was
just normal star behavior and not the most ideal situation, but ... not exactly the sign of a diva.[172] She
was praised in the press and by female celebrities like
Taylor Swift, Rita Ora and Selena Gomez for an empowering 2015 essay posted on Twitter decrying the double standard and misogyny in the focus of the press on
female musicians relationships and sex lives, instead of
their value as an individual.[173][174] Grande noted that
she has more to talk about concerning her music and
accomplishments.[175][176]
