Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande [1] have finally given us the collaboration we've been waiting for! On May 8, the singers dropped their new single, "Stuck With U [2]," and I'm just wondering what took so long? Justin and Ariana's friendship dates back to 2010, when they both attended Variety's Power of Youth event. At the time, Ariana was starring on Nickelodeon's Victorious and Justin was just a year into his music career. Since then, the two have gotten quite close, performing together on stage and having each other's backs [3]. Justin and Ariana are also both managed by Scooter Braun [4].
In Justin's Seasons YouTube documentary, he revealed that his 2019 Coachella performance with Ariana is actually what inspired him [5] to jump back into the spotlight and work on music again. Ahead, see some of Justin and Ariana's cutest friendship moments and here's to hoping they team up for more music in the future!
