Ariana Grande's "Thank U, Next" Music Video Will Reference "Legally Blonde," "Mean Girls," "13 Going on 30," and "Bring It On"

Ariana Grande has officially revealed the last piece to the puzzle, and the fourth movie she's recreating for her "Thank U, Next" music video. And she's transforming into full cheertator mode: She's Torrance, your captain Torrance!

The singer tweeted a photo of herself dressed as a Rancho Carne Toro, from Bring It On. (Don't act like you don't know the opening cheer by heart, because I do, too.) Her caption read, "‘I transferred from los angeles, your school has no gymnastics team this issaalast resort ........ ok i’ve never cheered before so what?'" She also shared a photo of the updated true heroes of the movie East Compton Clovers (renamed the Lovers), and also enlisted help for the other Toros in the background. It's yet to be determined if Sparky Polastri was at all involved.

Get your spirit fingers ready, but be prepared to wait: Ariana also mentioned the video is "not coming this weekend yet and i'll tell u more things."

Since Ariana Grande dropped “Thank U, Next” earlier this month, arguably the whole world has been obsessed with the breakup anthem. And it looks like the music video for the bop will soon reach our screens — complete with references to not one or two but FOUR iconic ‘00s romantic comedies.

Ari is the queen of building up anticipation, but she's also the queen of mercilessly hinting at her next move. On Nov. 19, she set the internet ablaze with a photo of her kissing her cousin with various Mean Girls nods sprinkled all over social media. "All of this is tea. Only a tiny sip tho...tbc. And by a tiny sip, I literally mean tiny...like 25% of the cup," she teased.

As it turns out, the references were indeed a hint about the forthcoming "Thank u, next" music video. And we now basically have another 50% of the tea confirmed by Ariana herself.

First off (alongside Mean Girls) is Reese Witherspoon's 2001 classic Legally Blonde, as she’s confirmed in multiple Instagram posts. One photo shows Ari on a treadmill (or elliptical, hard to tell) with Apple’s 1999 original orange iBook (yes, the exact same one Elle Woods outstandingly rocks at Harvard Law). The pic is accompanied by Elle’s infamous quote, “Whoever said orange is the new pink is seriously disturbed”, as the caption.

But it looks like Ari’s not alone when it comes to stepping into Elle's shoes, as she also shared a snap of her beloved Toulouse à la Bruiser Woods, casually chilling in a pool lounger. Iconic. Ari also posted a photo with actor Jennifer Coolidge, clad in her Paulette regalia, while sporting a fluffy pink top, which she captioned "new best friend .... thank u, next."

We can’t wait to see what antics Paulette and Ari Woods get up to in this portion of the video, but we also know Ari will be channelling her inner Jennifer Garner (a.k.a. Jenna Rink) in 13 Going on 30. (Who knows, maybe we’ll even get Noah Centineo as young Mark Ruffalo? We should be so lucky.)

Ari has already confirmed that Mean Girls, Legally Blonde and 13 Going on 30 make up 75% of the visual references in “Thank u, next” on her Instagram Stories twice today. “Ok, you guessed the third! but there’s still one more so no tea. Tomorrow,” she wrote alongside a collage of the three iconic films.

One thing is sure: we love this kind of math, and we can’t wait until tomorrow to finally figure out the whole equation. Thank you again, "Thank u, next."
