Ariana’s Plan for Thank U Next

Ariana Grande has been teasing pictures paying tribute to both Mean Girls and Legally Blonde while filming the music video for her latest single, “thank u, next.”

“i’m on an all carb diet GOD KAREN U ARE SO STooPID,” she captioned one post with friends, referencing one of the many quotes from Mean Girls.

“whoever said orange was the new pink was seriously disturbed,” she captioned another, sitting behind a 1999 Apple iBook – a direct reference to Reese Witherspoon’s Elle Woods in Legally Blonde.

She teased the Legally Blonde vibes even further by posing with Jennifer Coolidge: “new best friend …. thank u, next,” she captioned their cute photo together.

Ari also teased a photo of a dollhouse, suggesting that she might not be done with the movie references for the music video. She paid homage to First Wives Club with her first live performance of “thank u, next” on Ellen.
