Everything Nona had was to give Ariana Grande some love advice to make history.
Grande's grandmother Marjorie Grande (or Nonna to the world) posed for a photo with a huge plaque commemorating her achievement of becoming the oldest person to land a song on the Hot 100 thanks to Grande's “Ordinary Things.”
“Celebrating the one and only, most beautiful Nonna who has now made history as the greatest person to ever appear on the @billboard Hot100 🥹🥹🌞,” Grande wrote on Instagram with a photo of Nonna. “We love you and thank you.”
The track, which served as the closest for Eternal sunshine, peaked at Number 55 on the Billboard chart upon the album's release. In the outro, Nonna recounts feeling “like seeing daylight” after her husband comes home to see her.
“It's not like we never fought, you can get over it, you know?” he told Grande in the clip included on the track. “Never go to bed without kissing it goodnight/That's the worst thing you can do, never, ever do that/And if you can't and if you don't feel comfortable doing it/You're in the wrong position, get out.”
Fans seem to be connecting that Nonna's response served as an answer to the question the singer posed in the opening track “Intro (End of the World)” where Grande asks, “How do I know if I'm in the right relationship?”
Grande also spoke with Zane Lowe after her album release and shared why she always records her grandmother when she's around.
“I always record my Nonna when I'm with her because you never know what she's going to say and she's the most hilarious person in the world,” Grande told Lowe. “I had this thirty-minute voice memo where she and her friend Shirley were talking and, um, it was right in the middle, and I was like, 'Oh my God, that's the answer.'
Grande fell Eternal sunshine in early March and reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 album chart. Eternal sunshine marks Grande's fourth consecutive Number One album. In a glowing review of the new album, Rolling rockBrittany Spanos called Eternal sunshine “A wonderfully exposed journey to the end of her world – or at least what she thinks is the end.”
