Thank you to our amazing team who’s dealing with these technical difficulties,” and added, “And thank you for your patience.” Garnering a loud cheer from the fans, the ‘7 Rings’ singer asked, “Okay, we’re back! Should we continue?” After playing the notes of ‘Just Like Magic,’ the concerned singer confirmed with the audience whether they could hear her this time, “Did you hear any of that?”
Ariana Grande prompts gasps after ‘Thank You, Next’ lyric change
The ‘Thank You, Next’ singer changed the lyrics dedicated to her ex-boyfriend, Ricky Alvarez, whom she dated between 2015 and 2016. Sparking dating rumours, she subtly shared lyrics suggesting they rekindled after all these years. During the show, Grande sang, “Wrote some songs about Ricky; We always find our way back,” instead of the original lyrics, “Wrote some songs about Ricky; Now I listen and laugh.” The change received loud applause, cheers, and gasps from the concertgoers, as well as netizens after the clips surfaced online.
