From Sony Music Entertainment and Campsite Media, this is Infamous.
So you might have heard that last week, pop star Ariana Grande announced she was taking a step back from the public eye, following persistent scrutiny

That complexity is on full display in her most recent album, Petal.
Particularly in the new video for the single, Petal, which you may have seen, it shows Ariana Grande in this 1950s dress, repeatedly auditioning for a role at a company called, quote, Fame Inc.

And what you said earlier about this kind of tension of her appearance and having to be everywhere and how people relate to it, I mean, it actually makes me think of Charli XCX.
