ariana-grande-dangerous-woman-video-thatgrapejuice-preview

‘Dangerous Woman,’ the lead single from Ariana Grande‘s third album of the same name, has already proven itself a winner via its impressive top 10 debut on the Hot 100 last week.

Now, despite the set’s May 20th release date being nearly two months away, Grande is wasting no time in building buzz for it.  The latest move comes in the form of the tune’s official music video.

Taking to Instagram to lend teasers, the video sees the songstress let her hair down (literally) – trading in her signature ponytail for a sexy bedroom eyes and loosened locks.  We ain’t mad at ya girl.

Until we can get a full view of Ari’s newest visual, we invite you to get into these teasers below:

Whether a fan or critic of Rihanna, the common consensus is that ‘Kiss It Better’ serves as one of the strongest tracks on her polarizing new album ‘ANTI.’

Jury’s out on whether the song – which she was supposed to perform at the Grammys before pulling out – is the follow-up to chart-topper ‘Work.’

What is certain, though, is that R&B crooner Miguel has cooked up a remix of synth-heavy number which he has previewed.

The countdown is on for Kelly Rowland.

April 5th brings with it the debut of her BET talent-search ‘Chasing Destiny.’

The solo Grammy winner has paired up with renown creative Frank Gatson for the project, which sets out to piece together music’s next big girl group.

Billed as a docu-series with its own unique twist, the show does away with the pomp and pageantry of many singing competitions and instead embraces a raw approach which stresses the blood, sweat, and tears it takes to make it in the cut-throat business of music.

Ahead of the series premiere, an extended preview has been released.

This Sunday sees the ladies of ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta’ congregate for their annual reunion special.

Though an altogether tamer run, season 8 of the Bravo hit has brought many a memorable moment.

One of the more notable is the rocky friendship between Kandi Burruss and Phaedra Parks.

The one-time bosom buddies have been at relative loggerheads over a variety of issues including an unfinished exercise video produced by Kandi’s hubby Todd Tucker, as well as his friendship with Phaedra’s incarcerated ex Apollo Nida.

In true RHOA form, the topic was addressed during the reunion taping and let’s just say tempers flared.

Peep a preview below…
