Overview
- Ariana Grande posted a carousel of studio images on Wednesday, April 8, showing herself recording vocals and editing audio, plus a moody photo of pressed flowers.
- Her Brighter Days hotline now includes the line "we’re counting down the 8s, oops, I mean, the days," which many fans view as a nudge toward album number eight.
- TMZ reported via unnamed sources that she has finished a new album for a summer release, though neither Grande nor her label has announced a title or date.
- She starts her Eternal Sunshine tour in June with a limited run that she has called a last hurrah, beginning in Oakland and ending August 23 at London’s O2 Arena.
- The fresh hints depart from her January remark that nothing would arrive before May, which helps explain the swift surge of fan buzz and celebrity comments on her post.
