^Agreed. I discovered her on Victorious too, singing and acting and a lot of her appeal is how "cute" she is, just look at some live performances from the tour. You can hear some of the girls in the videos saying, "she's so cute" but these same kids will get boyfriends and get hurt then they'll start to appreciate more mature material.

She can appear and act her age without alienating her fanbase (Demi, Selena). Yet, she chooses to appear as a 15 year old.

Lol right? It's not like acting 20 years old automatically means acting like a hypersexual rebel.

I truly don't see the problem with it, although I understand why it would be a bit grating for a more mature audience.
'Problem' is doing better out the gate than any of Selena or Demi's leads though and Ariana is only on her second album so hey, something is clearly working.

I wouldn't attribute that to her image though.

That's not my point at all. My point is that her image isn't really an issue as people are making it out to be.

Can we get an album title and release date already? Elusive Chanteuse and her impact. Iggy and JB are the only features ? I want a new Honeymoon Avenue.

I'm not looking forward to the Zedd single at all.

Awesome. I'm expecting a 170-200k+ opening. "Break Free" will most likely do well.

Did she completely abandon Harmony and The Rascals for this album?

she is doing the Today Show concert on August 29th so i guess that week should not be a surprise. it is also the day after the VMA's so hopefully she will be performing there.

That is pathetic. I think they are taking a HUGE risk releasing the album two full months after the singles peak. I'm sure her first week sales will be decent, but I don't know about longevity. And why would they release another single when they have one still slaying the charts? DF is in charge of her career? How do they know the next single will take off like the first?

They don't know. The record industry is nothing more than a gamble. I think this era will be bigger than the first. I mean, it already is.

That's hot. With the right amount of promo and a smash second single to carry her through the summer, I expect big numbers for her sophomore album.

There's no doubt about it, but how much bigger is the question. Will the album go double platinum, I don't know. I just don't understand why they are sitting on her success when right now, everything is in order. SMH

They better at least put the album up for pre-order with "Break Free."

I cannot wait for this album. Yours Truly was fantastic and if "Problem" is any indication of the sound of this album then I know it'll be great.

Man, I've been waiting for this album for so long! I probably wouldn't want it this bad if they hadn't originally said album 2 would be here in February. All for the best though.
