Ariana Grande Is the New Face of Givenchy 
Ariana Grande has joined the Givenchy family. The news was first teased yesterday when the brand posted shadowy images on Instagram. It was pretty easy to guess that the mystery women in the pictures was Grande, mostly because the singer also posted to her own page. “[Givenchy] is a house I have forever admired and to now be part of that family is such an honor,” Grande says. “I love this clothing and the confidence and joy it brings to the people wearing it. Not only is the clothing timeless and beautiful but I’m proud to work with a brand that makes people feel celebrated for who they are, and unapologetic about whatever they want to be.” The full campaign will be released in July.
