thing I didn't know until a security guard at work told me about it congratulations thank you I really am happy for you thank you guys are we ready as we begin this interview can we start with a round of applause for Zach SS vers oh my thank you so much like i' would like to thank my mom like to thank the person who decided to take it uh would like to thank I mean you for the cake a you're welcome oh it feels good um we ready to go wow this is crazy this is like uh familiar but also so different we're in a warehouse I know we are in a warehouse I feel like we do have to start by addressing the incredibly different surroundings that we're we in right now because we really wanted to make this happen we've been trying really hard to make this happen and I was like okay great I can do it on zoom and Zach was like no I'm getting on a plane thank you for doing this well there's a lot to discuss by the way hello beautiful human I'm Zach and uh that's Ariana Grande yay sorry where Did We Begin well we be we begun with the began with the warehouse we're in a warehouse because I'm only here for a couple of days even though I wrapped absolutely it's New York [Music] um May I Ambiance um well cuz I wrapped a couple of days ago but I have to go back to London to finish some promo and some marketing stuff so I'm only here for a couple of days so Zach flew to New York to do this we tried to find a location that was similar to the sand video it's we did it it's beautiful it's it lacks a lot of graffiti but it's beautiful it's perfect why are you making music now I don't know I did not plan to I didn't have the goal to make an album I didn't have I actually was really opposed to coming out with music until after Wicked either both parts or just the one part I wasn't sure how it would feel but as soon as the strike began I came to New York and just for fun just to see how it would feel um max Martin came to New York to spend a week with me at jungle City studios here and it all just kind of started pouring out and after our first week together I kept coming to the studio every day by myself and it just kind of kept organically happening that way so um I just decided to react and listen to that and I thought maybe it should come out if it's coming out of me this way maybe it should be shared this way [Music] um I love it it's it's in the heights I am usnavi but by the way an album that we listened to when that movie came out on every single day it was crazy yeah we'd go on long drives that would be the only thing playing 100% you poor thing I'm so sorry yeah there's a reason why so much came out so easily right yeah I think I it had just really been a long time honestly it had just been such a long time I the last time we spoke was four years ago positions was 2020 this the last time we spoke it was on Zoom because we were in the pandemic there was a gourd it was it had been a long time and I think my relationship to music changed and healed a lot through taking space space from it I think I learned so much from Glenda and through Glenda I kind of healed a lot of parts of myself alongside and through her and it actually helped me heal a lot of my own personal weird stuff that I had with my relationship to music and being an artist and that like Persona and I was able to kind of come home and address it and sit with it and change the things that weren't working and fall in love with it again and it all kind of yeah was it all happened absolutely how it was meant to be so what is different about your relationship with music today than four years ago so much I mean so much I think I'm I am a more boundaried person now if that makes sense I think uh I think also taking space from it was really really healthy for me because I am a person who started on Broadway and I've always been a musical theater person I've always been an actress I missed acting I really spent a lot of time on tour and cranking out these albums and following the incredible response to my pop music it was the most incredible blessing ever but it kind of took over in a way that human Ari was wasn't sure she planned for and I think having so much time with a character instead of this caricaturized version of myself but it was really nice like I really loved being able to put my craft I suppose to the test in different ways I think the space was really healthy and again playing a character that I learned so much from I just yeah in life but also it just made this so much richer like it made coming home to music feel so much better and I think that balance is something that I'm really going to want want to maintain moving forward I think it's just nice like little Ari was so fed and fulfilled and thankful for this experience it was really nice you reference baby Ari on the album do I yeah she gets a shout who what do I say you talk you refer to yourself as baby girl and you talk about yes true yes just oh my gosh you're spilling tea about lyrics Zach sing but does human Ari and pop start already get closer together through this process yeah they do that's the most beautiful thing that has been kind of happening in life recently is that I think for so long 90% of the time I was pop star Ari and I had a hard time separating or or acknowledging how much more important human Ari is and how much better I can be as pop star Ari once I nurture human Ari and it's nice cuz now I feel like 99% of the time I am human Ari and even when I'm writing and I'm performing and I'm singing I am still human Ari and that's like very interesting so this kind of like yeah I don't know it's it's been nice it's like such a corny I suppose not corny that's not that doesn't exist but you know interesting thing I'm 30 my Saturn has returned I'm am like feeling it so like present every day and it's just interesting I was literally thinking that there's something over the last couple years where experiences and opportunities and a bunch of things happen and to a certain degree happened for a reason right like even grabbing Wicked and becoming Glinda my God so much growth comes from from her from her from time spent with her from yeah but the universe essentially set you up for that right like I I personally throughout our entire relationship I never saw something that you were more passionate about focused on truly I mean like emotionally physically mentally invested it was like it was like you were training for the Super Bowl like I remember you'd show up early to these to the auditions and you'd Circle the block yeah like I mean yeah the universe put that all together for a reason that leads you into this ginormous growth that is connected to Saturn returning I maybe truly yeah I mean why question it but I think yeah it's definitely something that I never I have never wanted something as badly as I did this and I tried to use that to take lessons every single day while I was doing the voice and get ready for these auditions I trained every day with Nancy and with Eric to transform my voice even like my singing voice everything about me I had to kind of deconstruct to prove to them that I could handle taking on this other person I kind of had to completely erase pop star Ari the person that they know so well because like it's even harder to believe someone as someone else when you're so branded as one thing so I kind of had to really go all the way to strip that down and come into my call back with no makeup my hair down like I looked 11 years old it was like you know but I I I really really work for it and my God I'm so grateful for it because it is the best most transformative and special experience of my life and the funny thing the funniest thing is like the the reason why I thought I loved Glenda since I was 10 years old is so not what makes us so adjacent to one another like it's so the high notes and the comedy and the pink and the laughs and being you know the clown is like what I was attracted to when I was 10 but it's so interesting um that there is a lot more to it underneath the surface what do you learn about her that you didn't pick up from seeing Wicked I don't know you've probably seen it at least a dozen times now yeah of course and I I've always loved her so much as we know but I love her so much more after spending so much time with her she's so strong strong she's so so strong her Arc is so rich and so beautiful and I yeah I'm so grateful I'm so grateful it was a beautiful two and a half years really between the prep and everything yeah the D deconstruction of oneself to take on a character in that process like you have to learn things about you and your awareness has to be different right absolutely it's it's interesting because it's like spending so much time in a character's body and as someone else you get used to certain things like your brain kind of gets used to certain behaviors like something that Glinda has is like this very sure sense of self and she's not very apologetic she's very good she's very kind but she's like very certain she takes up a lot of space unapologetically and I think I maybe before knowing Glinda and spending a lot of time with her would cram myself into tiny little spaces and be kind of apologetic about totally what I come with and who I am and my anything um I would sort of be like a hope you're all right bless you question mark um I don't know it's just interesting my brain got used to certain pieces of her and then the other things I would like would really force you to look in the mirror I think that's what I like so much about acting and what I missed so much because you know it's fun to be forced to look in the mirror in certain ways but the destruction deconstruction of ones self allows you to look at yourself from a different angle right and I know there's the most going on possible place to be I'm dying there's a Boeing 747 above us hold for plane holding that's so triggering I don't know why every time I was on a Nickelodeon scent and they yelled that I got like I started to sweat even more I'm taking my shoes off oh my God letting the dogs out E Yeah cheeky is that okay yeah you let the dogs out whatever you want to do E I hate let the dogs out I don't like that but really deconstructing oneself allows you to look at yourself from a different angle right and you get to acknowledge patterns that exist which patterns are attached to your Saturn returning right yeah being aware of what patterns that you possess breaking them ripping everything open and kind of redesigning everything from the ground up is that what you means like Saturn return is wild it really is so real and if you don't know it's like every 29 and a half years like you're the Saturn is somewhere whenever you're born like in a position and it takes 29 and a half years for to come back to where it was originally yes and when it does things just fall into place well you're forced to kind of clean house just all becomes very loud and you're you can't kind of stomach anything that's inauthentic anymore and you just have to say gracefully and respectfully we need to make some changes you know what I mean 100% And I think becoming Linda leads into this totally massive massive moment that really shapes the rest of a human being's life yeah that's for sure it's really interesting I love her but it was beautiful yeah it was so beautiful for so many and Cynthia like I can't sorry you were going to ask good question but I no please oh my God Wicked change my life right so many themes of that show the book really changed the way I could look at a situation for that message to be able to reach as many human beings as humanly possible has the potential to do a lot of good like the ripple effect of that is immeasurable yeah and Broadway isn't accessible to everybody touring shows aren't accessible to everybody but movies movies that live forever are yeah and it's crazy it's insane yeah like I think of the like what that show did for me and even what it did for you in life yeah and to give that to somebody else mhm in any capacity has oh my God like you can't even like you don't even know what what good it can do until it's out in the world you know it's exciting yeah you talk about nerves being attached to caring it is true right you're nervous about things you care about is there a new sense of nerves around the music you're releasing today oh absolutely I think um I'm the most nervous person on the earth I am just because I always care so much and I wear my heart outside of my body and um I I love what I do so much but I think also I am better at being a human than being an artist I don't have that like robotic tough cookie exterior that just can like do it and you know what I mean I I am a Cancer and I am a person who is very sensitive but you know I I love it and I also think that if I'm not doing something that makes me nervous or scared or feel that anticipatory excitement in a positive way you know feeling those nerves in a positive way then maybe it's not maybe it's not elevating my art maybe it's not there yet maybe it's not good enough so I think I I think it's a healthy feeling so nerves I think they are this album as we're hanging out today it's unreleased do you feel like nerves will go away around this music at a certain point or is it something I will go away at a certain point notop that mhm I'm going to be in a hotel somewhere no I'm kidding are you going to tour this album I'm kidding what are you going to tour this album um TBD a lot of people talk about two album tour which you hinted to at one point on your show didn't I yeah you did I think that was I was buying myself time I didn't want to do that I was like and I I was like yeah and then the album will never happen and then the tour will never no no no I'm kidding I'm kidding I'm kidding I'm kidding um I think I would love to do shows I love being on stage I miss being on stage I miss my fans so much that's the honest to God truth um I had a really hard time emotionally on my last tour but I think that's because of where I was at totally so just like with music I think I'm really excited to redefine my relationship to shows when I'm ready and to see what that looks like I do have a very busy year with this and with Wicked and then the next year I also have Wicked part two so I'm interested to see what that would look like it would obviously be shorter if it were anything it would be like a little a little something but I definitely do have the itch I miss my fans I miss being on stage but then again I also am not ready to announce any sort of thing or get people too excited because I don't want to disappoint you talked about elevating your art being connected to nerves but like what does it mean to elevate your art in this sense what are we getting from Eternal Sunshine that we haven't gotten before well I think it's I think it's very different in a lot of ways I uh I don't like to do the same exact thing twice but I think it's also different pieces of me like it's very me but just kind of my favorite rendition of it does that make sense I don't know it is you I'm really I I really am not sure how to specify what's most different about it but it's just as honest as the music you put up before I can even make the case that it's maybe I mean I mean it's incredibly honest like when you really listen to it you hear a story it's human yeah I I want to yeah I mean it's it's incredibly human but it's also touching on Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind so it's kind of a concept album which I also haven't done before um and that's also kind of why I don't want to put out a second single before the album because I would like for it to be heard in one piece it's a story of transition and growth it's a story of love and growth and and also loss and addressing I mean you address the most I mean you talk about the most it's but it's all cloaked in this I do but also it says it says everything and nothing at the same time it's it's very vague and very specific but like all at once but these songs are pouring out of you because there's so much emotion and so many experiences fueling it it was definitely the most emotional writing process for sure does it come naturally or do these lyrics need to be refined over and over again like what is genuinely what is the writing process so I definitely did several passes at all of the songs just to kind of be protective because I wrote them when I was very emotional some of them and then some of them were more you know there are Bops that are are more fun and then but actually even some of the Bops I cried writing but but I think like the process that the thing that was beautiful about it was when I was writing it was with no intention for the world to hear it I was just kind of like let's just go let's see what comes out and then when I was done I remembered that people will hear it and how sometimes people can sensationalize things and um assign meaning to certain things and I wanted to make sure that I combed through just to make sure that it was what I intended which even at my most heartbroken or most pained moments of the past few years there was so much kindness there was so much love there was so much honesty and transparency and respect so even at the hardest moments of you know the loss and the grief that you hear on some of the albums some of the Heartbreak stuff like there was so much like love and transparency so that was something I really wanted to make sure was captured it wasn't like a [ __ ] you at all and ever even like track number two I tried to make sure it was kind and giving credit for trying and for the goodness that there was um so that was like a tricky balance for me because I definitely had some sessions where I was writing more emotionally and uh reactively but that's also very human so I didn't want to erase all of it what is it like working with Max Martin again it's the best I love him so much we have become so close over the past few years as friends and I know we've been working together for 12 years but um I don't know he's just been such an incredible friend these past few years we were before I left for Wicked the few Studios sessions that I did which are all um all over Tik Tok thank you so much uh I'll see you in jail literally um but they're all real leaks no yeah they real but but the thing uh the thing is is that those were all written for a TV show for uh I remember this something that was not for me so fantasize comes out comes out crazy was stolen comes out thieves Pirates Crooks illegal what how are they I'll pay you more to put it away like to get it back why don't you want it out there because people think it's yours they don't know the that wasn't my song that wasn't for me it was like a parody of like a '90s girl group Vibe but they loved it they loved it so much and I was like you a all of you are absolutely Hypocrites and B that's crazy it's so corny but it's okay I I I took the note and I kind of gave them Ariana's version of that on the album I would say that exists oh yeah oh which was yeah so some of those seedling ideas from that time actually made their way onto the album which is really exciting but they they're completely different now so although you you've heard them because you stole them again um they're very different now so that's exciting too have you heard yourself as AI singing songs that aren't yours yes what are we doing yeah well you tell me what why I hate it one of the cases that somebody made on our show the other day was like I can use AI when I'm creating a song for an artist that I think it should go be for terrifying so they'll shop a song as that artist essentially it's terrifying I'm putting my shoes back dog's back in the cage e stop saying that sorry I'm sorry that's okay no seriously though the a I think is pretty wild it's terrifying there is the most going on but parallel to all this you're still running a beauty brand yes that is yeah thriving yay thank you I mean to watch this thing from the beginning that you worked on for so many years yeah can you just explain the tender love and care that goes into just a single product because oh my gosh I mean the thing about beauty that I kind of knew from fragrance beforehand is just it takes so long for one product to become perfect and to become realized and to have it out on the shelves it's like 2 years Foundation more like to [Music] longer I love it leave the whole thing in um no it's just amazing I mean and I love our team so much it's a symphony like there's like there's no way that's helping anybody um it's great no I love it it's perfect what is the most fulfilling part about it I think the most fulfilling part about it is using all of my own products like literally I use like except Glenda used a couple things that weren't mine because it's Glenda but and I didn't walk in there being like we have to use only my things I wanted her to have her own face but like I love using my own things and I love making people feel beautiful like some of my dancers in the SN video were like by the way I love your makeup and it was so fulfilling and people are obsessed with it people tell me about it and I'm like really yeah I'm like that's so sweet love it that makes me so happy like but that is to weave yourself into somebody's life in that way is very special and very cool but to craft product in a brand that's really bigger than you to a certain degree right it's intimate I mean like it's another version of Storytelling that we don't think of as storytelling because like how we look and present ourselves in the aesthetic that we like and our style is just such a personal thing so it's just it's intimate it's nice it's another way of spending time with my fans in a weird way why is red the color of this era H I think it's just it's it looks like the music to me and also I did also like the tie in of Clementine's hair from Eternal Sunshine she has red hair for some and blue hair for some but I I thought that red from her hair but also just kind of the emotional tone of everything and a bolder place I guess one of the things I was wondering is like what does that mean to you like what is Eternal Sunshine like how do you define it well it's interesting because people hear it and obviously think that it's so optimistic that's kind of the point is that is the irony of what it means is Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is kind of like ignorance is bliss like I'm going to erase all of the bad so I can kind of enter this eternal Bliss Eternal Sunshine um but it's really sad it's like selectively uh erasing certain things so it's it's kind of I loved it because it is beautiful and it's like Eternal Sunshine is but you know it's it's what we wish for everyone we want everyone to experience Eternal Sunshine sure but it's also like kind of the irony of it was my kind of what drew me to it because there's a lot of pain on the album as well so yeah there's everything yeah but and it's pain cloaked in Bops yeah yeah yes it is it's very boppy oh my God if we're making it sound like hell it's not it's really it's really no it's it's so fun sounding and feeling but the emotional context is just like whoa that's all it's genuinely my favorite album thank you I love it it's it is so special and maybe it's just where I'm at in my life and I just feel very understood by the entire thing and like I do feel like my Saturn also returned fairly recently yeah it did yeah it totally did and I I didn't know what it was until I was educated Yeah by you and this body of work well thanks I didn't do anything but well you created a record that taught me what uh standard returning means I think it's my favorite as well it is really I'm sure it is actually yeah it is yeah I don't know it's hard to describe as like you have to really listen to it but it is so nostalgic yet present and honest and relevant but very Universal and it's thank you filled with hits thank you and I I don't want to to talk about any traxia cuz we'll get to it we will but it is it's so it's so you but also so elevated thank you I mean you any creative goals you set before you step in the studio or did you genuinely not know you end up there idea I had no idea I had no if I could if I had to bet when our next interview would be it would have been well for Wicked yeah for sure for sure but if if I had to bet when we would be sitting here talking about an album I would have said 2027 and that's the first thing I said when I walked into the studio to hear it cuz I was super surprised like okay one of my Fondest Memories there's so many fond memories one of my Fondest Memories so many there's a trillion I remember when you came up to me and we're at like the Burbon room and it was Halloween you just whispered in the ear you go we're going to London oh my God and like I will remember for the rest of my life and you like I don't know what that means no I knew exactly what it meant you're going to [ __ ] be in Wicked yeah I'm sweating just thinking about it oh my God and in that moment like oh that was the best night of my life that was the best day of my life well because I don't think people know that it was I mean was it I mean had to been close to a year of like not knowing right well it was like the whole audition process and prepping for the auditions was like six months yes like voice lessons every day acting lessons every day Nancy Banks Eric vitro the best people in the world every single day and while simultaneously shooting The Voice which was so much fun and I remember one day before my my call back or my I don't remember was my first audition or my call back or my whatever um there were many rounds they were so fun and the waiting period in between I can't even begin to describe but I remember one day I came in and I was like Hey like I have to sing a lot of Opera tomorrow is there any world in which we could make it a little less cold in here in the whole studio I felt so badly because I'm sitting in the red chair and there's 400 other people around me and I said just like maybe we could make it a little bit less cold just because it was like you got to warm your voice freezing it was freezing in there it was always freezing in the voice but I never said anything of course because it's fun and it's work and who cares but I had to sing the next day at so much Opera and I said listen is there any possible world we could just like make it a little bit less Arctic and they made it so hot the opp everyone was sweating and like Blake was like why is it so hot in here I can't breathe and Kelly was like yeah this is it is so warm in here and and John was like on his phone and literally I was like guys I'm so sorry it's completely my fault it's completely my fault here's what's happening I have to sing a lot of Opera tomorrow and they were like what's happening and I explained it to them and they were so supportive but yeah it was just such a funny story thing took over your life yeah it really in the best ways yeah in that moment like like the conversation was always you become Glenda for a very long period of time and the idea of music was not really in the cards until after the movies I think I needed it to be that way so that I could give my everything of myself to her and to the movies I think if I had had anything else in my head it wouldn't have been the same you know what I mean 100% was there a moment thereout the process where you thought you weren't going to get the role I had no expectations I was just thankful to go in at all you really were I was just so excited to have the opportunity to audition I have been hunting Mark plat down for an audition since I was 20 you know what I mean I've been like hey I don't know when this is happening but when it's happening May I please at least just audition and that's all I wanted was an audition and um oh my gosh yeah I've I've never wanted anything more I that was just the best night that night I we were celebrating those what do you remember about your first day in Oz rehearsals or onset onset like full on you walk wardrobe you're in a different Universe I remember John's speech in the morning and just sobbing holding his hand in Cynthia's hand sobbing as he welcomed the crew who became some of the closest people to us for however long um in this tiny little dorm room that we were in it was actually massive but in our dorm room and we held hands and he gave the speech and I just remember him saying welcome to Wicked and just like sobbing and that's that was the first day the the last day has shooting ended yet yes so I I wrapped for the picture for the movie Glend has wrapped for the movie um but I still have to go back to do our like marketing shoot and some other couple little surprises that we're working on but um so I leave in 2 days but yeah the last day I had a headache from crying so hard I just I couldn't even get my makeup on I couldn't get anything on yeah so special do you still feel like a part of hers within you yeah yes I think I think we'll be intertwined forever like she'll always be a part of me of course She'll always be here but also the re acclimating I think will take a while too you know totally but it's fun it's really also fun to have something as grounding as this project with music to help to help separate and look forward to jumping into something else professionally I think I'm glad I'm busy I'm glad I'm glad I'm busy and have things to look forward to uh to keep me going until we jump back into Wicked promo and wicked stuff and yeah it's going to be fun nice a full year what's been the hardest part about all of this even making music again uh the hardest part hm figuring out what I'm GNA eat for dinner I'm kidding ARA Franklin said that one time it is my favorite thing in the world I'm kidding picking what I'm having for lunch no I'm kidding I'm kidding I don't know I feel really um I feel very thankful to have to be so artistically fulfilled at the moment and personally and and just kind of floating along I guess I don't know I can't complain I wouldn't feel right to yeah I don't know I don't have an answer I mean what do you want me to say I I think with everything good or great there's balance right like in darkness there is light good there is bad like and when the pendulum swings too far in One Direction it's never there for too too long there's like a balance of course yeah I don't know what I'm trying to say but I I'm just trying to like I don't like I feel like you before the interview snuck an edible and just began to hip that's what this feels like to be on the receiving end of just so you're aware the whole time what if you no no no just now just now like holy [ __ ] he's going no because I'm thinking to myself like life is amazing but in order to get to amazing there there is Darkness right like of course yeah everything is bundled with something and it's I I I when I listen to this album I feel like you're sharing yourself in a way that when you haven't done in a while and then two I feel like [Music] you're feel like you're talking to people who feel like they they know you but don't sure yeah I get what you're saying there is a sense of Mis it's for my fans there is a sense of this album where you're talking to people who have come to their own conclusion what people have crafted their own narratives yeah the thing is is that like we know this about the tabloids and about the media and about like am I crazy don't we know this yeah but nobody nobody cares for the sake of a good story or for for curing one's boredom on the internet right but that's what I'm saying it's like we selectively remember that this is what the tabloids do to people especially women based on whether or not we like the person we selectively remember that we selectively leave space for humanness for nuance like they don't leave space for that well they do for their friends and their family it's selective but when but when they turn it off when that aligns with the version of a person that they have in their head that they want to believe is true does that make sense 100% but but but I don't say this for them again I'm saying it for my fans for myself is there anything you wish people knew about what any of it all of it you it's a two-handed graph plenty we don't have enough time but if you guys want to come to lamaseria one night at please let me know we can get into all of it no I I feel like we don't need to go into any specifics but of course there's like an insatiable frustration inexplicable hellish feeling with watching people misunderstand the people you love and you and the anything that uh it's uh yeah of course it is it's it's annoying but I do feel like this album quiets that oh God I hope so I don't think it does I really I think it does I think it's the absolute worst idea I'm so nervous well because pieces of it touch on things that are real and then pieces of it are also just like a part of a concept yeah part of the concept so what is that separation and it's so scary to leave it to up leave it up to these selective memory people to decipher it's scary but I digress too late the vinyls have been printed how do you know this album was done I felt it um the last song I wrote for the album was the missing color that I wanted to make sure was there and once that was there I knew it was done I think some of my fans will not like how short it is which I understand because and I'm flattered by it because they always just want more more more and I'm thankful for that but I do feel like it's a concise album and I don't think it needs more there's nothing more to say and it is exactly what I wanted to make so I'm going to let it be I think it's time we go track by track let's do it I'd love that oh fun okay let's do [Music] it
