However, she did her best to find the upside of being forced to deal with so much tragedy. “I guess there’s not much I’m afraid of anymore,” she said. “When life tries you with such serious s**t so many times, your priorities change.

Ariana explained that her new album won’t be “particularly uplifting.” She called it a product of "feminine energy and champagne and music and laughter and crying."
