Fra Light hell yeah its iconic. the stage is MESMERIZING to look at, the representation is such a bright light in todays world, all the women are literal fucking star beings, she brings her family (joan, nonna and her cousin) to the stage in the end and the meaning itself is so important, uplifting and empowering. this perfomance does it justice with all the flawless makeup and gorgeous clothing choices. the choreography, too, is top notch. literally iconic. get yo self a damn dictionary miss thing, this aint bringin u nowhere
Is nobody going to talk about when ari brought her grandmother and her mother on stage was just so amazing ......... It makes me feel so happy Edit: I never got so many like tysmmm
This is the type of performance that we humans should excel to, the type of excellence that truly honor art and excellence ugh I need more and more like these Another one that moved me was Black Swan performance by BTS on James Corden show Another one is Lady Gaga Born This Way performance where they wear skin color clothing Wonderful artistic performances
ok but- Can we talk about how iconic this performance is? -the props are amazing -her outfit is a 10000/10 -the choreography is one of her bests -Ari's vocals are perfect
okay but it's insane that Ariana can sing in all those difficult positions -- how on earth!? it's hard enough keeping a stable voice live, her talent is out of this world FUARKKKKK x__x also, this was just a stunning performance and work of art in general
People know nothing of singing I can see, singing in those positions is nowhere near as easy, expecially in those tones and in that range, she did something impossible for most singers
Let's be honest, this is one, if not the best performance we have ever seen. The set, the lights, the background, the costumes, the dance, those incredible women, the message behind it, Ariana's family coming at the end, and of course Ariana. This is perfection.
dentindahouse Ariana used to be on a tv show called Victorious and she was the red head of the show. Her first song “Put Your Hearts Up” was also made when she was working on victorious
Yes is compared, the vocals, the presence, the song. That is SO Good and i'm not a Ariana Grande but still think that this performance are such Amazing
I cannot verbally describe how amazing this performance was, Ari killed it, the dancers killed it, the set, the costumes, everything. It is all so beautiful and perfect and they nailed this performance
Yeah because she probably went for DaVinci's Last Supper. 13 girls behind a long, joint table intermingling with each other and having also strong hand gestures continuously changing during the performance.
@@sortedlife4332 i meant that just like her music video this performance must have been inspired by an artwork from high renaissance. They basically share the same concept.
I agree, she is so beautiful and the smile on her face is heartwarming 😍 But why does it matter what race she is we should be at a point where every race is just accepted! Edit : I said something a bit ignorant and stupid . Please stop coming at me and hating on me .I made a mistake a few months ago .

this is power? this is blasphemous and disgusting. sexualizing myself doesn’t give me power. JESUS gives me power! I have power in GOD! Not because I’m a woman.
@@sk-uh1xv I- women are powerful because they are strong and independent. That is what i was saying :) if you don't agree with me... that's your problem and not mine. I am saying that us women we are powerful and we are PROUD to be women!
Most people just act like she can't sing. So they assume that she's lipsyncing all the time. It's stupid. I'm not saying that she doesn't here & there, but she still sings & uses her actual voice when performing. I don't see how this would be considered lipsyncing. You can basically hear her losing most of the pitches in her voice from moving around doing choreo.
not only is her voice amazing but I LOVE that there is so much diversity amongst the dancers. It’s not all skinny white girls. It’s black, asian and brown girls. It’s plus sized women. It’s women as a whole, not just a portion of them.
She's a very humble person I find. Have you noticed how bashful/happy but embarrassed she gets when an interviewer will say how incredible her voice is, it's so lovely. No egotism with Ari
garnetavi yes but she could’ve very easily portrayed herself as jesus at the table just as i assume most artists would but she decided not to, that definitely says something about her as a person.
as far as I’ve seen she seems to be a completely chill and humble celebrity, which is hard to find when someone is as well known as her. In most red carpet interview behind the scenes she almost always introduces herself, never assuming they already know who she is, being polite and showing that common respect. It’s really awesome, and just the simplicity of her not putting herself into the place of god when she very easily could have says so much
For real the more I see her live performances the more I respect her . She never fails in her performances . Come on she was singing upside down , and with all the moves , she still hit the high notes like a piece of cake.
this days the organization has control over her mic she may not even realize they mixed her mic to make the soound perfect. watch this video reacting her performance he explains it better than me and it makes total sence.. you can even hear her breath on the mic in the beginning. th-cam.com/video/lKWthk_Hl9c/w-d-xo.html

Diversity = Predominantly white, a few black, one asian and no middle eastern women. Apparently if there’s more than one person of colour then it’s diverse.

The vocals my goodness. It actually sounds better than the original. Her vocals are amazing without the autotune honestly. The stage realism, the sync movements....just beautiful
the diversity of her co-dancers!!!! and the fact that in the last part, all of her co-dancers were shouting/singing god is a woman gave me goosebumps they must've felt so proud. mad respect to everyone on that stage!
Tell me that I’m not the only one who had full body chills watching this from beginning to end??? And the topper at the end where she’s holding her mom and grandma’s hands…so powerful and amazing
I started crying because Ariana is a beautiful person with a wonderful soul. When she shook her grandmother's hand the tears started pouring down my face incessantly because she knew it was her favorite song. Ariana you will forever remain in history.
She is my queen ari and slaying she is so cute I love how she included all women different shapes and sizes it shows how this song is empowering and it really helped me through a tough time where my crush basically rejected me in the rudest way that he never liked me and it hurt me so much he basically said ended our friendship and we avoid each other love u ari from Australia
*Fun Fact:* At 2:57 Ariana is holding hands with her family. On the right side of Ariana, we have Ariana's mother, Joan Grande. On the left side of Ariana, we have Majorie Grande, which is Ariana's grandmother, and Joan's mother. And finally the very left side, there is Lani Crane, which is Ariana's cousin, the daughter of her deceased aunt (she is Joan's sister, who passed away in 2008 (Rip)).
@@nabihanasar3577 you were the one who got pressed for no reason and acted like an ass, and you're telling _me_ to chill now? and how dumb do you have to be to think that every freaking person who listens to ariana knows everything about her family members as if they're even relevant to her music anyway? imagine being that short sighted and moronic.
this performance made history. nobody can convince me otherwise, she’s the most talented person in this industry. the representation of women in all aspects, colors, the lyrics, the vocals, the choreography, the outfits and hairstyles, the fact her mom, grandmother and aunt came on stage and held her hand when she hit the high notes. the power this performance holds.. damn it gives me chills all the time. 🥺✨
Honestly the inclusion in this for me makes it indeed a legendary performance, there were indeed women of all skin tones but if you look closely there were also women with wine-marks (don’t know if its called that in english too, it is in my language) and there was even a bald women in there too, honestly this is the top of inclusivity and even revolutionary in my opinion.
there's no such thing as "best performance" at the Grammy Awards, there is "best pop vocal performance" though, but any pop song with vocals on it can get nominated in that category, it isn't about an actual tv/live performance
Sterling Archer the woman sitting on the hill represents adam and i think ari represents God, but there’s still such great representation throughout the mv. her backup dancers for tour and her grammy’s performance were super diverse as well 💕 inclusive queen
Ariana saying she was on her periods during this performance makes me even prouder of her?! like yes ma'am, serve us while you deal with bleeding, cramps and the other shit that comes with it
@@KnowThyself619 dude drop it even if she was do you know how hard it is to perform and sing at the same time? She's still a human being and she can't be perfect all the time
Is it just me or others also come back to this video and song from time to time cause it makes so feel so powerful and no matter how bad it gets I as women have the power to change it
I know everybody’s talking bout beautiful voice Ariana has ( btw I love it like all of you) but did you notice the perfect choreography and how talented are the dancers? INCREDIBLE ❤️
@@blubblubboo her control was great. I dont know what you're listening to. The way its easier to tell its live is you can her breathing in the microphone. She has excellent control
This performance was absolutely flawless. Ariana is one of the few artists who sounds even better live than the actual song and I love her for that. I love this song so much and she totally slayed this performance. She even sang upside down while laying on the table. Like omg! I can't stop singing this song and we just covered "God Is A Woman" on my channel, hope you will watch it. I especially loved when she brought her mom and Nona at the end of the performance.
DorkyCabello some actually say that she lip synced this or like some parts of it but idk. I thought she did when she did the arch and her voice sounded the same but then again it also looks like she’s singing live. Idk. Either way it’s a good performance ❤️
One of the best performance in VMA history. Vocal heavenly. Visually stunning. Wish the camera man could do better. I feel like I cant see all of the beauty in this performance.
By far the most beautiful, and inspiring performance she has ever preformed.The set and choreography alone made this incredible and her voice was the icing on the cake.
I feel like this is her most iconic and mature performance
Fra Light it’s an objective statement.
Fra Light hell yeah its iconic. the stage is MESMERIZING to look at, the representation is such a bright light in todays world, all the women are literal fucking star beings, she brings her family (joan, nonna and her cousin) to the stage in the end and the meaning itself is so important, uplifting and empowering. this perfomance does it justice with all the flawless makeup and gorgeous clothing choices. the choreography, too, is top notch. literally iconic. get yo self a damn dictionary miss thing, this aint bringin u nowhere

FOR EVERYONE SAYING THAT SHE WAS LIPSYNCING:
she wasn’t. you can hear her breathing and the mic touching her mouth sometimes.
and you can hear how she messed up some lyrics, so she was actually singing
The music was on underneath her so she could hit the high notes at the end but when she was singing she was actually singing
They need to get their ear tested. Her breathing is so clearly expecially when she prolong her voice

Where's the correlation?
I think this has race diversity but not body type diversity.
If it were really diverse it would include males and trans as well...
The diversity in this performance is beautiful!
the diversity is AMAZING
Tell me that I’m not the only one who had full body chills watching this from beginning to end??? And the topper at the end where she’s holding her mom and grandma’s hands…so powerful and amazing
I started crying because Ariana is a beautiful person with a wonderful soul. When she shook her grandmother's hand the tears started pouring down my face incessantly because she knew it was her favorite song. Ariana you will forever remain in history.

same!!
ikr for me too😢😭😭😭
Yes I cried at the end too 😭
you mean her nona?❤️🥹
this performance deserved a better microphone wtf
Uuuhm uhm uhm uhm yuh
I liked the echo
Gen G he means the part when you could hear her breathing. they did the echo on purpose
@@lyra281 Oh ok
The audio kinda look like shit
The fact that she got her mommy and Nonna on stage is- the respect I have for this woman is undescribable. No wonder she was woman of the YEAR.
Woman of the year in Billboard
i can't stop coming back to this performance. such a masterpiece. even better than studio version
😐
I don’t understand like I’m a Christian male and I don’t think there’s anything wrong with this song. It’s a metaphor about the power of women.
🙌🏻
AJ definitely
AJ thank you!
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
@@nicolereed9948 agree
Her vocals were soooooo on point for this performance👑👑👑👑
Its me yeah i'm agree 😉🌙
In your shit music and superficial world maybe
Jack Springett exacto pd: lets people enjoy thingsss
ok...she was literally singing laying down.......that's pure talent
Thanks for all the likes!!!
She is my queen ari and slaying she is so cute I love how she included all women different shapes and sizes it shows how this song is empowering and it really helped me through a tough time where my crush basically rejected me in the rudest way that he never liked me and it hurt me so much he basically said ended our friendship and we avoid each other love u ari from Australia
01:11+01:12+01:13+01:14
And when she's knelt over with her hair in her face and shit. That's gotta be annoying.
I KNOW RIGHT SHE’S SUCH A QUEEN 🥺
And with her back arched
Just here to enjoy the pure class. Nobody sings live like this anymore. ❤
that was three years ago but I still think it's the best performance ever

They did her dirty with that mic
Tj life Vlogs but she rocks anyway
Facts
But she still slay
I think it was better for the dance acts
I know right?
Her outfit is to die for
1:09 can we talk about how she nailed that part IN THAT POSITION?
Exactly what I was thinking... I woulda choked on my own spit
@@xottic8175 ong ikr samee

I also loved how that woman smoothly helped her up. That's some nice support there.
AND WITH SOMEONE ON HER CHEST!!!! I'm pretty sure she was lightly resting on her, but still!!!!
When her mom and grandma come out i got the chills
And I had the tears
Me two
NONNNAAA IS MY IDOL
Well, with something she is gotta hide the Baphomet image bahind ger on 2:48 min -_-
@@meliromo349 nothing to do with baphomet........ its a goddess
When she brought her mom, Nonna and her cousin on stage I wanted to cry, it was so beautiful 😭❤️
Ruthie X nonna not nona
Are you for real there’s nothing to cry about grow up
Ruthie X nonna*
Lucas Entertainment you’re annoying
mindless souls smh there are other things in the world actually worth crying for stop being cringy.
this performance is so epic
I love how she’s so small but her stage presence just cannot be masked by all those other beautiful ladies
*Fun Fact:*
At 2:57 Ariana is holding hands with her family. On the right side of Ariana, we have Ariana's mother, Joan Grande. On the left side of Ariana, we have Majorie Grande, which is Ariana's grandmother, and Joan's mother. And finally the very left side, there is Lani Crane, which is Ariana's cousin, the daughter of her deceased aunt (she is Joan's sister, who passed away in 2008 (Rip)).
How is this fun??? Lmao
ok wait taylor and ariana have grandmas named marjorie?! idk why thats kinda cool lol
As if we didn't know that...quit acting like we dont know who atleast nona and her mother are....
@@nabihanasar3577 bro chill the fuck out. they're just informing people, what's your problem? why are you so butthurt over it?
@@nabihanasar3577 you were the one who got pressed for no reason and acted like an ass, and you're telling _me_ to chill now? and how dumb do you have to be to think that every freaking person who listens to ariana knows everything about her family members as if they're even relevant to her music anyway? imagine being that short sighted and moronic.
this performance made history. nobody can convince me otherwise, she’s the most talented person in this industry. the representation of women in all aspects, colors, the lyrics, the vocals, the choreography, the outfits and hairstyles, the fact her mom, grandmother and aunt came on stage and held her hand when she hit the high notes. the power this performance holds.. damn it gives me chills all the time. 🥺✨
Beyoncé still in the industry
@@ILLUMINATIITANIMULLI and no one moved
@@thesyainbrother3028 Ariana would agree with me
@@ILLUMINATIITANIMULLI Beyonce is satanic so no
Honestly the inclusion in this for me makes it indeed a legendary performance, there were indeed women of all skin tones but if you look closely there were also women with wine-marks (don’t know if its called that in english too, it is in my language) and there was even a bald women in there too, honestly this is the top of inclusivity and even revolutionary in my opinion.
This performance makes me proud to be a woman. So proud of Ariana! And also, good job to the other dancers! Absolutely stunning 🤩
Oml....those high notes were on point, this proves she doesn’t need auto tone 100% amen
Peppa??
This should’ve won best performance at the Grammys 😭
Yeah I agree. Maybe because its god is a woman 😕 if you get what I mean. This should've get more recognition.
AJ nope
What won
there's no such thing as "best performance" at the Grammy Awards, there is "best pop vocal performance" though, but any pop song with vocals on it can get nominated in that category, it isn't about an actual tv/live performance
The Nephew Music they should have something called ”performance of the year” or something at the grammys
My sister performed in this video too she’s the one the green suit and headband next to jesus.. omg im so prouda of her!!!
Alex Sanchez wow thats lucky!
im proud of her too. i wish you all the best of luck throughout life. 🤍
omgg that's so amazing!
Jennifer Fero bro what if its real
Jennifer Fero welp lets hope its real xD
It's the most beautiful show Ariana has made throughout its history
can we all talk about how she made the black woman jesus and herself one of the disciples? 👏🏻👏🏻 so beautiful
In the music video she makes a black woman God in the Michelangelo painting at the end too
👏🏾👏🏾🖤🖤
Sterling Archer the woman sitting on the hill represents adam and i think ari represents God, but there’s still such great representation throughout the mv. her backup dancers for tour and her grammy’s performance were super diverse as well 💕 inclusive queen
Abby you’re completely right
god i love her!!!!!
Ariana saying she was on her periods during this performance makes me even prouder of her?! like yes ma'am, serve us while you deal with bleeding, cramps and the other shit that comes with it
Truly an icon.
How is she wearing a short clothes 🤨
@@Ninifairy999 a tampon does exist….
Wait what video is that? Link?
@@Sapphiresxn she said that on twitter i’m pretty sure but i don’t have the link sorry
The fact that she brought her mom, Nonna and her cousin on stage at the end is so cute ❤️
The one in the green dress is her cousin, didn't notice before
What a stunning performance. Ariana is one of the best performers we have.
singing god is a woman while being on her period can't get more legendary than that tbh
how did you know that she was on her period?
@@pabbb_ I believe she said it some where
@@seansswamp ohh

How can she sing upside down omgggg
Lipi Rastogi I can‘t even sing when i stand normally
She’s a talented sister I can sing laying down but not fully fledged upside down jesus
Pink does it all the time
Destiny W pinks a crazy hoe she swings around on trapeze and sings she is also a talented sister
Have u ever watch P!nk 's performance ? She literally a fucking bat
2:44 gives me chills. The dancing was perfect. You could see all the beautiful background dancers. This is my favorite live performance of Ariana’s
Same omg
SAMEE
Ariana is one of the best vocalists right now❤
Tell me why tf this didn’t get nominated for most iconic vmas performance 😭😭😭
rigged
because they dont like ari
I can't get over the choreography omgggg
I love the dancing at 2:44 so smooth and exactly how I imagined dancing to this song

2:17 who told the camera man that it would be a good idea to show us a crowd during her big vocal moment ?
exactly lol
yessss
@@KnowThyself619 dude drop it even if she was do you know how hard it is to perform and sing at the same time? She's still a human being and she can't be perfect all the time
territorial pissings than you should dislike yourself
territorial pissings u literally can’t clearly see it cuz dancers are in da way n her face is pointing upwards like what?
Is it just me or others also come back to this video and song from time to time cause it makes so feel so powerful and no matter how bad it gets I as women have the power to change it
I know everybody’s talking bout beautiful voice Ariana has ( btw I love it like all of you) but did you notice the perfect choreography and how talented are the dancers? INCREDIBLE ❤️
IKR
Awe thanks so much! Love when people see more than the artist on stage. 💋✌
Molly 280409 true
INDEED
for those who say she used lip sync, man, you can clearly notice she's not
Obviously, the singing is so unstable
@@blubblubboo her control was great. I dont know what you're listening to. The way its easier to tell its live is you can her breathing in the microphone. She has excellent control
I mean kpop lip sync and stupid bitches actually like that shitt. Like I’m -
Sometimes she does, like all artists. They all do.
I dont want you to get offended but she started lipping from 1:37 to 2:04 and it is nothing bad with it
whos here after the vmas 2019 show?? this performance is still the most synchronized i've ever scene damn
Sad because Ariana wasn't there...
Are u kidding? Beyonce run the world performance was pure synchronisation
@@thibautlemaire4246 It's her opinion tho so let her be . You're a total joke AHAHAHHAAH lol
@@user-br4ym7dd9z oh look another Kpop annoying ass stan...
the vmas sucked
no vma performance will ever top this i fear
I love The fact that she Made a black girl Jesus and she didn’t make her self jesus most artists would have done that
Also, historically Jesus would have been either black or brown. Ariana. Did. That. 😍
that's a good question btw

She looks different without the ponytail but her voice is the same
SHE LOOKS SO GOOD THO
This performance was absolutely flawless. Ariana is one of the few artists who sounds even better live than the actual song and I love her for that. I love this song so much and she totally slayed this performance. She even sang upside down while laying on the table. Like omg! I can't stop singing this song and we just covered "God Is A Woman" on my channel, hope you will watch it. I especially loved when she brought her mom and Nona at the end of the performance.
Ουου μη χέσω
DorkyCabello some actually say that she lip synced this or like some parts of it but idk. I thought she did when she did the arch and her voice sounded the same but then again it also looks like she’s singing live. Idk. Either way it’s a good performance ❤️
@@sunrises8760 the only thing that could be lip synced is the pre-chorus the rest sounds live
gt vre
She did lip synced a bit :

One of the best performance in VMA history. Vocal heavenly. Visually stunning. Wish the camera man could do better. I feel like I cant see all of the beauty in this performance.
Ariana is one of the best vocalists right now❤
By far the most beautiful, and inspiring performance she has ever preformed.The set and choreography alone made this incredible and her voice was the icing on the cake.
