Not long after, she followed up with her second major release, My Everything, which included chart-topping hits like “Break Free” and “Problem”—tracks that solidified her status as a leading force in pop music. But before she became a household name in the music industry, the pop star had already captured hearts on television, most notably playing the quirky and beloved Cat Valentine on the Nickelodeon hit Victorious. Her charm carried over into the spin-off series Sam & Cat, where she starred alongside Jennette McCurdy, further boosting her fame among young audiences.

Long before her rise to stardom, the pop star was honing her craft in unexpected places—she actually began her career performing as a soloist with orchestras like the South Florida Philharmonic, showcasing her vocal talent at an early age. Her passion for performance led her to Broadway, where she made her acting debut in 2008 as Charlotte in the musical 13, a role that helped lay the foundation for her future success. Family has always been important to her; her parents, Joan and Edward, supported her journey from the beginning, and she shares a close bond with her older brother, Frankie Grande, who’s also involved in the entertainment world.

When it comes to her personal life, the pop star has often found herself in the spotlight. In June 2018, she surprised many by getting engaged to comedian Pete Davidson after just a short romance. Though the engagement ended a few months later, it sparked widespread media attention. Prior to that, she had meaningful relationships with several public figures, including rapper Mac Miller, her backup dancer Ricky Alvarez, The Wanted’s Nathan Sykes, web sensation Jai Brooks, and fellow artist Big Sean.

Later on, the pop star found love again with real estate agent Dalton Gomez. Their relationship blossomed quickly, and they got engaged by the end of the year. The couple tied the knot in a private ceremony in May 2021, marking a joyful chapter in her life. However, in February 2023, they announced their separation, confirming the news through mutual statements. Later that same year, it was revealed that the pop star had begun a new relationship with actor Ethan Slater, whom she met while filming Wicked: Part 1. As always, her journey—both professionally and personally—continues to captivate audiences around the globe.
