<\/div>\n

Ariana Grande<\/a> navigates an undefined relationship and things get confusing as they do in that situation in her new video for \u201cBoyfriend,\u201d which features her tour mates, the duo Social House.<\/p>\n

In the new clip, Grande and Social House are hanging at a stylish party in a fancy mansion, pretending that they aren\u2019t together, but two of them are \u2026 sort of \u2026 Well, it\u2019s complicated. \u201cI know we be so complicated\/But we be so smitten, it\u2019s crazy\/I can\u2019t have what I want, but neither can you,\u201d she sings and Social House echo the sentiment later.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou ain\u2019t my boyfriend,\u201d Grande sings on the chorus. \u201cAnd I ain\u2019t your girlfriend\/But you don\u2019t want me to see nobody else\/And I don\u2019t want you to see nobody.\u201d At the party, they lock eyes, flirt with others, get jealous, and eventually, all the push-and-pull lust and avoidance leads to some major damage and bloodshed.<\/p>\n

The singer took to Twitter<\/a> to discuss the theme of the song, which she said was common among people she knows, with her fans. \u201cPeople want to feel love but don\u2019t want to define their relationship & have trouble fully committing or trusting or allowing themselves to fully love someone. Even tho they want to.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wanted to make something uplifting that captures that feeling of being afraid to take that leap & trust, being afraid of being hurt or feeling like you won\u2019t be enough for that person,\u201d she continued. \u201cBut also how it feels to have a crippling crush on someone.\u201d<\/p>\n

The singer, who is scheduled to headline Lollapalooza<\/a> this weekend, dropped two albums within six months of each other: August\u2019s Sweetener<\/em><\/a> and February\u2019s Thank U, Next<\/em><\/a>. \u201cBoyfriend\u201d is her second non-album single this year, following the Victoria Mon\u00e9t collaboration \u201cMonopoly<\/a>.\u201d There is still more music ahead for Grande: she co-executive produced the soundtrack for the forthcoming Charlie\u2019s Angels<\/em> reboot and has teased a collaborative song with Miley Cyrus and Lana Del Rey. The film is scheduled to be released in November.<\/p>\n
