Pop singer Ariana Grande doesn’t have a ‘Problem’ with impressions on ‘Tonight’

When she isn’t busy working on fragrances, creating new music or licking doughnuts, pop singer Ariana Grande might be practicing impressions.
Grande stopped by “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” to announce her new fragrance and music and she joined the host in a game of “Wheel of Musical Impressions.” Both Fallon and Grande performed randomly selected songs in the style of popular singers.
The “Problem” and “Break Free” singer performed a short rendition of the children’s song “Mary Had a Little Lamb” in the style of Britney Spears to near perfection, but her performance of “The Wheels on the Bus” as Christina Aguilera was truly spot-on.
Aguilera even took to Twitter with her approval of Grande’s impression.
You betta work girl! @ArianaGrande -Go for those runs- keep singing you're face off!! 👏🎶🎤💋💋 https://t.co/jNfnLuv1Oh

During the last round, Fallon and Grande shared a duet as Celine Dion and Sting singing The Weeknd’s top 40 hit “Can’t Feel My Face”.
Fallon tweeted about the duet.
Thank you @ArianaGrande for the duet and for the announcement. We love you here. #NewMusic #FallonTonight

Grande made headlines over the summer after being filmed licking doughnuts and making disparaging comments about America in a viral video.
Recently, during an interview with “Good Morning America,” Grande reflected on the incident, saying, “I think one of the biggest things I learned from that was what it feels like to disappoint so many people who love and believe in you, and that’s an excruciating feeling.”
I always have the most fun with you on your show! thank you so much again! 💜 https://t.co/CAUnCmLwMn
