She was one of the many celebrities in attendance at Wimbledon. But instead of Novak Djokovic or Carlos Alcaraz, Grande and her co-star, Jonathan Bailey, stole the spotlight. Fans went stir-crazy speculating if there was anything between them.

Meanwhile, she’s got ‘Big Diesel’ in her corner. Shaq’s making sure everyone knows Ariana Grande is first and foremost a talented and versatile artist. Have you seen Ariana’s vocal impressions? Let us know what you thought about her talents in the comments.
