Ariana Grande has by far one of the biggest voices in music, and she’s also really good at imitating other singers, but there are a few things about the Grammy Award-winning singer that may surprise you. For example, her name was inspired by a character from the cartoon Felix the Cat named Princess Oriana. However, it appears that Ariana isn’t a big fraidy-cat because she just loves watching horror movies. In fact, she says she just can’t get enough blood and gore! Ariana also loves to play monopoly, and a concert venue in Canada even surprised her with a Monopoly game piece made in her image!
She’s also a huge Jim Carrey fan, and her favorite movie is “Bruce Almighty.” Arianna is also a dog lover with nine fur babies at home named Coco, Cinnamon, Sirius, Fawkes, Toulouse, Ophelia, Pignoli, Strauss, and Lafayette. On top of that, most of them were rescues. She’s also a huge nerd (as if the horror movies didn’t give that away) who devours any and everything Harry Potter-related.
Ariana’s favorite color is lavender, and believe it or not, she’s quite short, coming in at only 5’2. She was also once turned down when she was a kid for a part in her school choir — is that not insane? In this video, we see Grande making those school officials regret their decision as she hangs out with James Corden for an episode of Carpool Karaoke.

As the two ride and joke around, Ariana absolutely fills James’ tiny car with her enormous voice as they both sing some of her best songs.
