Ariana Grande Jokingly Teases ‘AG7’ Title as ‘Goat Mother’

Ariana Grande hasn’t forgotten about AG7. In a recent Instagram post, the 30-year-old pop star joked that her seventh album will be called “goat mother,” sharing photos and videos on Instagram with dozens of goats on an idyllic farm.

The “Positions” singer shared a carousel of photos with friends and family Monday (Oct. 23), several of which showed the vocalist and her mom interacting with animals. “ag7: goat mother,” she teased in her caption.

The R.E.M. Beauty founder also shared a snap with her longtime collaborator Max Martin, the Swedish producer who’s worked on Grande hits such as “Problem,” “Break Free” and “Bang Bang” with Jessie J and Nicki Minaj. Grande and Max attended Norbert Leo Butz’s show at 54 Below this month, marking the second time Grande has shared a photo of Martin amid rumors that she is working on her next LP with the pop-music mastermind in New York City. Earlier this month, she posted a selfie with the &Juliet composer.

“Thanks @arianagrande for coming to see me at @54below I met this incredible lady when she was (gulp) 11 years old backstage at @wicked_musical,” Butz wrote on Instagram Monday, sharing a selfie with Grande. “She is a dream. What an honor to have a moment to talk 🎸 with the one and only #maxmartin.”

Grande also shared the snap of Martin and and Butz in her Instagram Stories, writing, “my two favorite worlds colliding,” and tagging the Broadway star.

Fans are eager for a new Grande album, especially as it’s been three years since her most recent album, Positions, came out in 2020. However, the singer has admittedly been more focused on filming the Wicked live adaptations and working on her beauty brand as of late.

In her post, Grande also included photos of her seated inside an open guitar case and posing with Cynthia Erivo, the Elphaba to her Glinda. She captioned the photo of herself with Erivo in a corresponding Instagram Stories, “@cynthiaerivo forever and ever my favorite image. i love you so much.”
