ARIANA Grande has become a household name in recent years as she abandoned her roots in acting and became one of the best voices of the music industry.
The iconic singer recently made her debut as the new judge for The Voice, following Nick Jonas’ exit, and fans were left amazed as she took over the role seamlessly and many claimed she was “out of the show’s league.”

Before becoming a rising star in Nickelodeon’s Victorious, the Florida native was a regular teen with dark hair and child-like features.

Ariana first appeared on the silver screen as she embodied Cat on the show Victorious, alongside Victoria Justice.

By 2012, Ariana ditched her bright red locks for darker ones.

Ariana, who traded her pale skin for a bronzed look, started to explore her music career at this time as she then switched her look for her signature brunette.

This year was not any better for the singer as she mourned the death of her ex-boyfriend, Mac Miller.

2021 has been a growing year for Ariana so far – who not only got married in a private ceremony – but began to change right in front of her fans’ eyes.
The Voice’s new judge looks completely different. She cut her hair and dyed her hair black, while cutting back on her tanning.
She also has plumper lips, adding to the list of possible plastic surgery she might have had.
