#Ariantors are apparently more than ready to see their fave, Ariana Grande, take the stage at the 2019 Coachella festival.

As we reported here, Grande – who, at 25 years old, made history as the fest’s youngest headliner – is sharing billing honors with rapper Childish Gambino.  Together, the twosome (alongside Khalid, Janelle Monae, Solange, H.E.R., Anderson.Paak, Diplo, and other featured performers) have sent concertgoers in a frenzy and caused a quick sellout.
