Fans may have finally found a confirmation of Ariana Grande and Dalton Gomez’s romance.
Ari and her longtime pal, Justin Bieber, dropped their much-anticipated collab, “Stuck With U,” at midnight on Friday (May 8) – and the music video had a sweet surprise at the end.
Celebs and fans alike sent in videos of themselves dancing along to the tune, which were edited together for the music video. Among the duo’s famous friends who made a cameo in the music video are Hailey Bieber, Gwyneth Paltrow, Lil Dicky, Michael Bublé, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis, Jaden Smith, Kylie Jenner, Kendall Jenner and more. The video also includes several families of first responders as well as frontline medical workers from Los Angeles area hospitals.
Prior to the release, Justin shared a clip of Tiger King’s Carole Baskin and her husband, Howard Baskin, wearing animal print threads and dancing to the tune. Fans thought they would also make an appearance in the video, but Ari replied to Justin’s tweet to clear that up. “for the record, i did not allow or approve this clip to be in the actual video. but. nonetheless. it exists and that’s ….. unique. anyway, 7.5 hours!” she wrote.
But what fans DID NOT expect was that Ariana’s new beau, Dalton Gomez, would be making a cameo towards the end of the video. The couple shared hugs and kisses while dancing in a bedroom.
News of the pair’s romance hit the headlines back in March, but according to reports at the time, they’ve already been dating on the DL for a couple of months – he appears to be the same guy Ari was seen kissing back at a bar back in February.
Fans have noticed him popping up on Ari’s IG Stories as of late, which sparked speculations that they’re quarantining together. And this music video may have just confirmed that.
The duet aims to raise funds the children of first responders – including health care workers, EMTs, paramedics, police officers and firefighters on the front lines – who have been affected by the coronavirus pandemic. Net proceeds will go toward funding grants and scholarships through a partnership with First Responders Children’s Foundation and Scooter Braun’s SB Projects.
