Ariana Grande upped the excitement for her 183 million Instagram followers on Monday when she shared a stylishly lit photo of herself in the studio on Tuesday.

Ariana was shot in profile as she sat down in the studio for an intimate vocal recording session while being bathed in intimate blue light, and she captioned it with a simple smiley face.
The Thank U, Next singer was dressed in a simple black tube top and had her brunette tresses pulled back in her standard pony tail with a white scrunchy.
The photo also gave a clear view of one of her newest tattoos, a delicate butterfly on her right upper arm, just below her shoulder.
She gave the ink its official debut on Monday, along with another butterfly located a bit farther down her arm.

Ariana teased the lower tattoo months earlier at the 2020 Grammy Awards ceremony in January, when some intrepid fans spotted an outline version of it just barely peaking out above her opulent gray gloves.
Ariana and Justin officially announced the single on Friday, when they both shared the cover art by one of Ariana’s favorite artists, Liana Finck, who’s drawings are regularly featured in the New Yorker.
The artwork referenced those quarantining at home amidst the coronavirus pandemic with two figures seated and holding hands together in a house.
The singers, both of whom are managed by Scooter Braun, jointly announced that the proceeds from the song would go to the children of first responders.
