It is finally here: the much-hyped "Thank U, Next" rom-com tribute that Ariana Grande has been teasing for the last two weeks just went live on YouTube. While Grande has shared some behind the scenes footage teasing scenes paying tribute to Legally Blonde, 13 Going on 30, Bring It On, and Mean Girls, this is the full, official look. Everything is seriously perfect. The bend and snap is in there! There's a comedy Legally Blonde interlude with Grande and Jennifer Coolidge. And you bet Kris Jenner made a "you're doing great, sweetie" surprise cameo as Regina George's mom:

Grande has gotten both original cast members from the films plus her friends to play roles in the video. (See a full breakdown of just the Mean Girls segment alone here.) It comes during a particularly big week for her, as Grande has also just released her Dangerous Woman Diaries, a YouTube Premium documentary series that captures her last tour and Sweetener sessions for her newest album that came out earlier this year.

Grande teased two weeks ago that she shot her "Thank U, Next" music video over the course of three days this month. She wrote on Twitter, "I don’t know if I’ve ever been this exhausted. Ever. But these last three days were the most fun I’ve ever had. Period."
