Ariana Grande to Perform ‘The Boy Is Mine’ Live on TV for the First Time on ‘The Tonight Show’

May 30, 2024 518 17

When Ariana Grande sang “We Can’t Be Friends,” she certainly wasn’t referring to Jimmy Fallon.

On Thursday (May 30), The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon announced via its official Instagram page that Grande will be the talk and musical guest for the June 6 episode of the Emmy-nominated late-night show.

Grande’s upcoming appearance is particularly special. It will mark the “7 Rings” singer’s 11th guest spot on The Tonight Show and her first late-night interview since 2021. She will perform “The Boy Is Mine,” the latest single from her Billboard 200-topping album, Eternal Sunshine, and discuss her new LP. The official music video for “The Boy Is Mine,” which some fans speculate will star You actor Penn Badgley, is set to release the following day (June 7).

2024 has already been a landmark year for Grande, with some of her biggest moments yet to come. At the beginning of the year, she earned her eighth Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 single with the house hit “Yes, And?” (chart dated Jan. 27), tying Beyoncé for the eighth-most Hot 100 chart-toppers among female soloists. The Max Martin-produced track, which Mariah Carey blessed with a remix, also extended Grande’s record as the first artist in Billboard history to debut in the top 10 on the Hot 100 with each lead single from her first seven studio albums.

The same week Eternal Sunshine became Grande’s sixth No. 1 album on the Billboard 200, the second single, “We Can’t Be Friends (Wait for Your Love),” debuted atop the Hot 100. This marked her ninth No. 1 single and tied her with Taylor Swift for the most No. 1 debuts by a female artist in history, with seven each. The music video for “We Can’t Be Friends,” inspired by Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and starring Evan Peters, further solidified its success.

Grande’s achievements this year extend beyond music. This fall, she will star alongside Cynthia Erivo in part one of the Wicked movie musical, premiering on November 27. Grande plays Glinda the Good Witch to Erivo’s Elphaba, with a star-studded cast including Michelle Yeoh, Jonathan Bailey, Jeff Goldblum, Bowen Yang, Peter Dinklage, Ethan Slater, and Keala Settle.
