Talk about an effortless mini-performance!

 

Ariana Grande is getting ready for her Sweetener World Tour and during rehearsals, Ariana’s dancers and her entourage stepped and swayed in the background as Ariana beautifully covered Minnie Riperton’s ‘Lovin’ You’ – a true classic!

 

 

Billboard writes, “‘Lovin’ You’ is known for its cloud-grazing whistle tone, and Grande’s multi-octave range was absolutely up for the challenge of scaling Riperton’s legendary register.”

 

 

As previously announced, the Sweetener World Tour will kick off in Albany, N.Y. on March 18 however, according to Ariana’s latest Instagram post, she has decided to change the name of her world tour, “Twenty five days until Sweetener / Thank U, Next Tour.  Love you and we can’t wait to see you.  P.S. I’m going to call it the Sweetener / Thank U, Next Tour from now on since I’m doing songs from both albums.”

 

 

 

Ariana let this tidbit slip on Instagram, “Hey, love you.  Shot a bunch of s**t for tour yesterday.  Today we back to rehearsing, but just wanted you to know how f*****g over the moon excited and grateful I am.  I can’t wait to see you.”
