Victoria, 34, and Ariana, 30, first met around 2011, when the Wicked star was still on Nickelodeon’s Victorious, and the pair have continued to stay close. In fact, Victoria has cowritten several of Ariana’s biggest hits including “7 rings,” “thank u, next,” and “34 + 35.”
While Victoria also received the awards for Best R&B Album and Best Engineered, Non Classical Album at the 66th Grammys, she picked up her first ever nominations at the 2020 year ceremony for her work with Ariana for thank u, next, which she described to Billboard at the time as: “the closest I can get to writing for myself.”
