Singer Ariana Grande is convinced an ex-boyfriend cheated on her with
another guy – but says it would be much worse if he’d played away with a
woman.
She told Guilty Pleasures her suspicions about her lover had inspired
a track on her upcoming album. ‘There is a song called Break Your Heart
Right Back which is about a boy that cheats on a girl with another
boy,’ she said.
‘It’s one of my favourites on the album and it’s really funny because
I believe it has happened to me. I’m not 100 per cent positive but I’m
99.9 per cent positive.’ The 21-year-old added: ‘I would rather he
cheats on me with a guy than with a girl any day! If I found out my
boyfriend was gay, I would be like “OK!” I’d be so relieved.’
With her album My Everything out on August 25, fans can look forward to more tales from Grande’s secret diary.
She is thrilled to be featuring on new single Bang Bang with Nicki Minaj and Jessie J after the girls reworked the song she originally wrote.
‘Monte Lipman [the music manager] sat me down in his office one day
and played it for me with Jessie and Nicki on it. It was the best
surprise ever,’ she added.

And talking of exes, the singer won’t scrap her duet with former
lover Nathan Sykes from future live set lists – and might even call up
her ex to join her on stage.
She recorded a track called Almost Is Never Enough with former Wanted
star Sykes, 21, when they dated last year. But the memory of their
four-month romance won’t stop her performing their track.
‘I don’t think it would be awkward to perform with Nathan. That would be professional,’ Grande said.
‘I wish him well. He’s a great person, it just wasn’t right’. Past
romances influence her singing and she said: ‘It brings back the
memories but it’s like a love-hate thing.’
