Nickelodeon star Ariana Grande puts her own heart up in her new music video for her debut single "Put Your Hearts Up," the official first single from her upcoming debut album. Grande is best known as the emotionally scattered Cat Valentine on Nickelodeon's "Victorious," but like her co-star Victoria Justice, she's also got a blossoming singing career.The uplifting pop tune was co-written by celebrated songwriter Linda Perry, and samples a melody from 1993 smash hit "What's Up?" by her band 4 Non Blondes. The pop tune is full of energy, and encourages listeners to band together, because "if we give a little love, we can change the world," sings the 18-year-old actress and singer who has previously starred on Broadway in the musical "13." Grande shot the video for "Put Your Hearts Up" recently and has been tweeting about how she's lending a hand in the editing process.
"Put Your Hearts Up," was so much more than just a catchy pop single. It was a pop single with soul, heartbeat, substance. "It's a song that I hope inspires people to put their hearts up and that even the smallest acts of kindness can make the word a better place. And seeing everyone make little hearts with their hands when I sing "Put Your Hearts Up" almost makes me cry every time. Every. Single. Time," she shared. Grande's vocals have this ability to carry you from the darkest of places into a euphoric trance, it proving she's a force to be reckoned with.
Co-directed by Meiert Avis and Jeremy Alter, the video for "Put Your Hearts Up" features the red haired cutie in a signature Grande magenta gown that definitely lifts up your mood, as she strolls down the street that looks quite similar to Universal Orlando theme park, spreading the power of love to the people she passes, and even features a crazy dance number where Grande leads hundreds of people. We love the homage to Singing in the Rain!
