Marjorie Grande, whom fans know as 'Nonna,' has made history as the oldest living person to appear on the chart.
Ariana Grande's grandmother may be 98, but that's not stopping her from appearing on the Billboard Hot 100.
"Ordinary Things" is the final song on Ariana's new album"Eternal Sunshine," which dropped on March 8."When he'd come home and I'd see him, when he first gets off that train, it was like God almighty arrived — it was like seeing daylight," Marjorie says in the song."I mean, I could've packed up and left a million times, you know? It's not that we never fought, you can overcome that.
Ariana described the choice to include her beloved grandmother in the song during an interview on the Zach Sang Show, saying it put a bow on the question asked in the album's first track,"Intro " — in which Ari asks in her lyrics,"How can I tell if I'm in the right relationship?" Ariana explained that she sometimes will record her grandmother for hours because she'll say things that are funny and unexpected. In the recorded passage included on"Ordinary Things," Marjorie had been talking to her friend Shirley, Ariana told Sang."She was very excited to be on the album, and she was very moved by it," Ari said.
