Ariana Grande is no stranger to reinventing her look, but her latest transformation has fans commenting on the incredible transformation with the help of makeup prosthetics. The pop star turned into a much older version of herself for her new short film, which goes hand-in-hand with the release of the deluxe version of her album, 'Eternal Sunshine.'
The visuals are inspired by the 2004 movie 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind,' and Ariana gave the story a twist, adding five new songs to the previously released album.
Ariana's transformation was completed with realistic wrinkle prosthetics. The dramatic results have left fans both stunned and impressed, as it gives her performance an emotional angle.
In the 26-minute music video, directed by Christian Breslauer, Ariana plays Peaches one more time, and she can be seen arriving at Brighter Days Inc. to undergo a procedure called "advanced memory restoration."
The process allows her to travel back in time and reconnect with her younger self, reliving memories. The opening sequence features Ariana's drastic physical transformation, marking the beginning of this emotional journey, which fans are already calling a visual masterpiece.
Despite focusing on her acting, Ariana teased the deluxe version of the album back in January, and admitted that she had been working on the deluxe last year.
"I feel so grateful to the acting, and I think my fans know that music and being on stage will always be a part of my life, but I don’t see it coming anytime soon," she told Variety in December, adding that she wants to explore "different forms of art.
While Ariana told the publication that "acting is feeling like home right now," she still seems excited to share music with her loyal fanbase. It's unclear if the Hollywood star plans to delve into music again this year with a new project, as she is also promoting the second part of 'Wicked' later this year.
