Ariana Grande may be short, but her talent is larger than life.
The Oscar-nominated Wicked star appeared on the Wednesday (February 5) episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! where the host challenged her to "wing it and sing it" as part of a segment where she had sing a song without ever hearing the lyrics or music, per People. And she didn't disappoint.
Accompanied by a pianist wearing angel wings, Grande was game to give it her best shot as she sang lyrics that appeared on cue cards. However, she quickly got a shock as she figured out what the song was really about, warily saying, "uh oh, oh God," as she sang the first lyrics all about her short stature.
"I am a strong successful woman who always stand up tall even though I am in fact, so very very small," she said, going on to sing that "10 of me stacked up equals one of Shaq," referencing 7'1" former NBA star Shaquille O'Neal, who towers over her 5'1" frame.
The "We Can't Be Friends" singer couldn't contain her laughter as the song continued, singing how life is short "and it turns out I am too," with lyrics comparing Grande to a "human baby carrot" and "lady Pikachu" and deciding she's "the perfect bite-sized snack."
"Yes, my name is Grande, it's ironic that I'm small. People ask me 'Where's your mom?' when walking through the mall," Grande sang, before climbing up on a chair to close out the song with a big finish, declaring, "It's a small world after all!"
