The 21-year-old Ariana Grande is known more today for her young musical career than she is for the six years she spent acting, both on Broadway and television. Grande became an artist to watch in August 2013 when her debut studio album, Yours Truly, earned the No. 1 one spot on the U.S. Billboard 200. Almost exactly one year later, she released her second album, My Everything, that includes hit singles “One Last Time,” “Problem,” featuring Iggy Azalea, and “Break Free.” In her short stint in the pop music industry, Grande has worked with many top artists, including Iggy Azela, Jessie J, Nicki Minaj, Zedd and Big Sean. She has also racked up some noteworthy honors including two nominations at this year’s 57th Grammys for Best Pop Vocal Album for My Everything and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for “Bang Bang,” with Jessie J and Nicki Minaj. She has recently performed on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and is now touring the country on her Honeymoon Tour, set to stop at Oklahoma City’s Chesapeake Energy Arena, 100 W. Reno Ave., on April 3. So young in her career, there’s a lot fans haven’t seen from this rising star. The show begins at 7:30 p.m. For more information visit www.chesapeakearena.com.
