Ariana Grande Break Up with Your Girlfriend, I'm Bored review


Break Up with Your Girlfriend, I'm Bored (stylized in all lowercase) is the third single from Ariana Grande's fifth studio album, Thank U, Next. It was released on February 8, 2019 and dropped the official music video on the same day of her album release. The video was directed by Hannah Lux Davis.

Break Up with Your Girlfriend, I'm Bored is a trap-pop song that contains a interpolation of 'N Sync's "It Makes Me Ill".

The track is mainly about Ariana meets a boy and is very attracted, only to realize that he has a girlfriend. 

On the first verse, she sings,

You got me some type of way (Hmm)
Ain't used to feelin' this way (Mmm-mmm)
I do not know what to say (Yeah, yeah)
But I know I shouldn't think about it
Took one f***in' look at your face (Hmm)
Now I wanna know how you taste (Mmm-mmm)
Usually don't give it away (Yeah, yeah)
But you know I'm out here thinkin' 'bout it

Then, Ariana begins to see the guy's girlfriend before her very eyes with the lyrics,

Then I realize she's right there
And I'm at home like, "Damn, this ain't fair"
Grande tells him that he needs to "breaks up with his girlfriend" so that she can him all to herself on the chorus with,

Break up with your girlfriend
Yeah, yeah, 'cause I'm bored
You can hit in the mornin' (Mornin')
Yeah, yeah, like it's yours
I know it ain't right
But I don't care (Care)
Break up with your girlfriend
Yeah, yeah, 'cause I'm bored

In the music video begins with Grande wearing a long blonde wig arriving in a club. Then, a guy(portrayed by Riverdale actor Charles Melton) catches the singer's eye. She later that he has a girlfriend (portrayed by model Ariel Yasmine) who looks just like Grande herself. 

The couple invites Ariana to dance with them, which she accepts. They shared drinks with her at the bar and decides to invite her to their house party the following night, but then the singer finds herself jealous of their romance. 

Throughout the video, Grande is chasing after the guy so that he can finally have a relationship without his girlfriend being in the picture, of course.

I don't want to give too much away in the video, but if you watch in until the very end, you will see a major plot twist.

I am not going to tell you what it is. So, you'll just watch the video for yourself to see what happens.

My take on Break Up with Your Girlfriend, I'm Bored is I love the fact that Ariana is experimenting more with trap music on this song. And the interpolation of "It Makes Me Ill" by 'N Sync in the bridge was right on point. And the music video is to die for.

If you love Ariana Grande, make sure that you and go purchase this single along with the album Thank U, Next on all streaming platforms available:
