Ariana Grande Proves She Was Always a Star in Adorable Throwback Birthday Post
Happy birthday, Ariana Grande! The pop superstar turned 31 on Wednesday (June 26), and she took to Instagram to share a sweet throwback video from her childhood.
In the clip, she’s seen in a multi-colored swimsuit with her curly hair on full display, belting various songs and dancing for her family. “Why don’t you sing Celine Dion?” the “We Can’t Be Friends” singer’s mother, Joan Grande, is heard telling her at the end of the video. Ari captioned the post with a simple bubble emoji.
Ariana’s older brother, Frankie Grande, also took to social media to share sweet birthday wishes for his sibling. “Haaaaaaaaaapppy BIRTHDAY to the most beautiful, amazing, talented, and most importantly, KIND sister in the entire universe,” he captioned a photo of baby Ari giving the duo’s mom a cute smooch. “From the moment you came into my life, you’ve brought nothing but joy, love, and endless inspiration. I am beyond grateful to be your brother and to witness your journey, both as an artist and as the beautiful soul you are. Beyond that though, I’m just… so damn proud of you. You have done so much for me in our lives, and I couldn’t be more thankful. You are my rock. My balance.”
He concluded his message, “May this year be filled with all the happiness, success, and love that you deserve. Keep shining your light and sharing your magic with the world. I love you past the moon and further and further and further to the ends of the universe and back!”
