MTV brought Total Request Live (TRL) back for one special Sway Calloway-hosted episode in honor of Ariana Grande. Dubbed Total Ariana Live, the show took over Times Square for a 30-minute segment. Fans were waiting in the rain for their idol who was nervous herself, Rap-Up reports.
"I'm very, very excited, but I'm very nervous," she said. "I've sung on live TV a million times, but I've never done anything like this."
Before hitting the stage to perform a stripped-down, piano-backed version of her No. 1 smash hit "Problem" she dealt with another "problem," performing a cover of A$AP Rocky's "F--kin' Problems," which kept the MTV censors working overtime.
As previously reported, Grande also debuted her new Zedd-assisted single "Break Free" and announced that she'll be performing the summer anthem at the 2014 VMAs on August 24 at The Forum in Los Angeles. Last year, Grande sang a pre-performance medley at the show, but this will be her first time taking over the VMA mainstage.
Grande's upcoming sophomore album My Everything is due out August 25 via Republic.
