Ariana Grandeskipped the Grammy awards last year after a disagreement with her performance but it's clear they agreed with things this year since the singer was very much present at the award show. Ariana graced the red carpet in a grey, puffy gown that had all eyes on her. While the Sweetener singer pulled in five nominations she went home with no awards but did give fans an exceptional performance of some of her best hits.

Ariana graced the stage to perform "Imagine," "Thank U, Next," and "7 Rings." Her beloved song "Thank U, Next" was released after her break up with Pete Davidson following the couple's engagement. The lyrical content touched on being thankful for all her exes since they taught her something valuable for her single life going forward. At the end of her Grammy performance for the song, Ariana was seen making her way to her bed and pulling her ring off her engagement hand and placing it in a closed box. 

A fan assumed she was making a reference to the end of a chapter with Pete and Ariana confirmed it was true. "So.. do we end this era tonight..?
@ArianaGrande," the user wrote, with Ariana responding: "yes ????"

"I usually express how I feel about anything through work. So, I hope she's well. I hope she's very happy. And that's pretty much it," Pete recently said of his ex. 

It’s no secret that modern-day pop songwriting can be, to put it lightly, a collaborative affair. Sometimes, a hit can be the product of many united minds, especially when million-dollar-plus major-label albums are in the mix. For example, Ariana Grande‘s “7 Rings,” the lead single off thank u, next, features a staggering ten credited composers, including Ariana herself. And while that’s a mighty number in itself, one songwriter in particular is particularly rankled at his omission. So much so that he’s launched a full-scale lawsuit against Ariana, as reported by TMZ.

According to the publication, a songwriter by the name of Josh Stone alleges that his song “You Need It, I Got It” features an identical melody and similar lyrics to Ari’s track — the chorus, in particular. Though the track (embedded below), at least on the surface, is hardly a dead ringer for Ari’s own, Stone maintains there is indeed a discernible trail leading back to him. As TMZ claims, Stone believes that his previous meetings with Universal Music Group and frequent Ariana collaborator Tommy Brown ultimately led to the unsolicited melody lift.

With his legal eagles gunning for the prize, Stone is said to be demanding profits, and the full-scale cancellation of Ari’s “7 Rings.” Do you think he has a case here? Or is this a reach to end all reaches? Check out the song below.
