Pop powerhouse Ariana Grande may have won a thumbs up from Celine Dion when she took to ‘The Tonight Show’ to impersonate the ‘My Heart Will Go On’ belter, but we’re curious to see how the pop legend’s fans will feel about a reported forthcoming cover of another one of her most beloved hits.

Word has it Grande is set to tackle Dion and Peabo Bryson‘s Academy and Grammy Award winning hit ‘Beauty and Beast’ – the title track to the 1991 animated version of the film.  Now, as Disney fans prepare for the March 2017 live action adaptation of the classic, they’re greeted with news its soundtrack is set for a revamp as well:

Well, that was quick!

Just days after announcing the title of his third album, ‘Drugs,’ singer/songwriter August Alsina has unveiled a full listen to the album’s title track and a peek at its accompanying music video.

Directed by Alsina himself, with a little help from Amber Gray, the trippy visual sees the singer croon through a series of dream-like, drug-induced sequences before drifting off to a Garden of Eden-esque location.

‘Drugs’ acts as the first official single lifted from the forthcoming opus, the follow-up to 2015’s ‘This Thing Called Life.’ Hear it below and weigh in:

Cop a gander of Joe Jonas!

It may be wintertime, but the DNCE lead singer turns up the heat for GUESS‘ new promotional campaign.

Following in the footsteps of younger brother Nick Jonas, who cemented his pin-up status with a similarly racy campaign in his Calvin Klein‘s, the 27-year-old no doubt makes a bold beeline for those titillated by his sibling’s antics.

We really are in changing times; for years patriarchal society saw women objectified by (often fully clothed) men. Such is the climate today that men are doing the same for promotional gain. A lot can be said, but we’ll leave it at…interesting.

Welcome to the latest TGJ Roundtable!

Over the years, That Grape Juice has established a distinguished voice that – whether loved or loathed – sparks discussion, debate, and on occasion drama!

Though comprised of seasoned writers who share a similar outlook on Urban Pop culture, the idiosyncrasies of the TGJ team members often lend for quite heated debates “behind the scenes” about the hottest topics.

In it, he thanked his family for their support as he stood as leader of the free world and outlined the highs and lows of his presidency.

Fortunately, the praise he received for his speech was undisturbed by news of Trump’s alleged penchant for “Golden Showers” on social media.

As we previously announced, ‘Dance Again’ diva Jennifer Lopez is looking to do just that with her new NBC reality dance competition ‘World of Dance.’

Acting as executive producer of the series, she’s joined by R&B singer/songwriter Ne-Yo and actor/choreographer Derek Hough on the judging panel to crown the show’s inaugural winner and hand the lucky dancer a cool $1 million prize.

As the finger pointing between Mariah Carey‘s camp and Dick Clark Productions continues well over a week after her failed New Year’s Eve performance, the ‘Triumphant’ singer has finally been greeted with good news from the otherwise tragic incident.

Thanks to a week of ongoing publicity surrounding the showing – which was highlighted by “live” performances of Carey classics ‘We Belong Together,’ ‘Emotions,’ and her holiday album’s rendition of ‘Auld Lang Syne’ – the pop icon has soared on streaming outlets.  And, when we say “soared,” we mean skyrocketed!
