Ariana Grande Sets the Record Straight on Voice Changes and Teases New Music
Ariana Grande Sets the Record
¡Hola amigos! Have you heard the latest chisme about our girl Ariana Grande? Apparently, some folks have been talking about her speaking voice changing, and Ari is not having it! In a recent interview on Penn Badgley’s Podcrushed podcast, she addressed the ongoing speculation head-on, keeping it real as always.
If you’ve been following Ariana for a while, you know that her voice is as iconic as her signature ponytail. However, after a clip of the conversation went viral on TikTok, fans noticed her pitch and cadence shifts. Ariana felt the need to clarify the reasons behind her varying tone.
In the TikTok post featuring the interview clip, Ariana initially discusses her current recording process in a lower register. But then, out of nowhere, she switches to a higher register, which had some commentators accusing her of faking her speech. ¡Ay, Dios mío! Can’t a girl change her tone in peace?
But Ariana, being the queen that she is, explained that her higher tone is a result of “habit” and her experience of playing Glinda in the set of Wicked for the past two years. Plus, she added that vocal health is another factor influencing her vocal placement. “I intentionally change my vocal placement (high / low) often depending on how much singing I’m doing,” she stated. ¡Claro que sí! A true artist always puts their craft first.
And let’s not forget, this isn’t the first time fans have noticed a change in Ariana’s speaking voice. Remember her presentation at the 2024 Oscars alongside her Wicked costar Cynthia Erivo? Some critics pointed out her higher-pitched tone then too. But Ariana has been open about her transformation process for the role of Glinda, which included extensive voice and acting lessons. ¡Qué dedicación!
But here’s the best part, mi gente: despite all the focus on her speaking patterns, Ariana dropped a bombshell that had fans jumping for joy. During the Podcrushed interview, she revealed that she’s been living in the studio and working on new material, possibly a deluxe edition of her Billboard 200-topping album Eternal Sunshine. “I’ve been writing a lot, and maybe there’s more. I want to do a deluxe at some point,” she shared. ¡Emocionante!
So there you have it, amigos. Ariana Grande is not only a vocal powerhouse but also a true artist who puts her heart and soul into everything she does. Whether she’s speaking in a high or low register, one thing’s for sure: she’s always authentic and true to herself. And with new music on the horizon, we can’t wait to see what she has in store for us next.
