Producer Reveals the Ariana Grande Song That Almost Went to Beyonce! https://www.justjared.com/2023/10/03/producer-reveals-the-ariana-grande-song-that-almost-went-to-beyonce/ https://www.justjared.com/2023/10/03/producer-reveals-the-ariana-grande-song-that-almost-went-to-beyonce/#comments Tue, 03 Oct 2023 23:45:00 +0000 Just Jared https://www.justjared.com/2023/10/03/producer-reveals-the-ariana-grande-song-that-almost-went-to-beyonce/

Ariana Grande and Beyonce are two of the biggest names in music and have so many hits between them.

Knowing that, we were still surprised to learn that one of Ariana‘s songs was initially written with Beyonce in mind!

Babyface, the producer and songwriter who worked on the song, opened up about the history behind the number and explained how far along it got with Bey before she passed on it.

The acclaimed musician also looked back on his earliest days working with Ari and one thing that she was adamant about always wanting to do.

Read more about the Ariana Grande song that almost went to Beyonce…

The song in question was “Baby I,” which just missed out on the Top 20 on the Billboard Hot 100. It was included on Ariana‘s debut album Yours Truly.

“One of the songs we did, ‘Baby I,’ was actually written for Beyoncé,” Babyface told GQ.

He continued, saying, “Beyoncé actually…I don’t know if we actually demoed it, but I played it for her. She almost did it. And then she ultimately decided not to do it. And that went to Ariana who said, ‘I’ll do that. I’ll take a Beyoncé leftover.’”

Speaking about Ari, Babyface also recalled that one of their conversations about her career.

“The funny thing is, I remember having a conversation with Ariana, and asking her what she really wants to do. And way back then, she said, the thing that she’s into more than anything is musicals. And that she loves Judy Garland. ‘Somewhere Over the Rainbow’ and all the music that Judy Garland sang from Meet Me in St. Louis. She would sing things off the cuff from that. And you could hear that that’s where her heart was,” he explained.

Of course, the hitmaker is now set to bring Glinda to life in the live-action Wicked movie!

On that note, the hitmaker very recently returned to her roots in a big way.

Taylor Swift is wrapping the first U.S. leg of her Eras Tour in Los Angeles and she is performing six shows in the city!

You can expect so many celebs to be in attendance at the show and we’ve already spotted so many of them at SoFi Stadium on Thursday night (August 3) in L.A.

We have the intel on at least 35 celebs in attendance at the show and there likely are more that haven’t even been seen yet.

It’s bound to be a special show as there is a camera crew on stage filming the concert, seemingly for a documentary or movie version.

Browse through the slideshow to see all of the celebs at night one of the Eras Tour…

Anita Baker Drops Babyface from Her Tour Amid Clash with His Fans https://www.justjared.com/2023/06/13/anita-baker-drops-babyface-from-her-tour-amid-clash-with-his-fans/ https://www.justjared.com/2023/06/13/anita-baker-drops-babyface-from-her-tour-amid-clash-with-his-fans/#comments Tue, 13 Jun 2023 20:17:11 +0000 Just Jared https://www.justjared.com/2023/06/13/anita-baker-drops-babyface-from-her-tour-amid-clash-with-his-fans/

Anita Baker has announced that she will be continuing her tour alone after dropping her special guest Babyface from the remaining dates.

The legendary singer has claimed that she is being abused by Babyface‘s fanbase, one month after he was asked not to perform at the New Jersey show on their tour.

Babyface was billed as a supporting act on the tour, but fans seemingly thought it was a co-headlining tour.

Back in May, Babyface told fans at the New Jersey show, “I am truly sorry to my fans who have been waiting for us to hit the stage this evening at @PruCenter. I was asked not to perform in order to give Ms. Baker her space and time to perform her show in its entirety. My band and I are extremely saddened we didn’t get to perform for y’all tonight 💔”

Now, Babyface has been asked to leave the tour and both he and Anita are commenting on the situation.

Keep reading to find out more…

“After Silently, Enduring Cyber Bulling/Verbal Abuse & Threats of Violence from the Fan Base, of Our Special Guest/Support Act. In the Interest of Personal Safety. I will continue, ‘The Songstress Tour,’ alone. Appropriate refunds will be made. Blessings,” Anita wrote on Twitter on Tuesday (June 13).

Babyface said in a statement, “I am saddened by the news that Anita Baker has decided to remove me from ‘The Songstress Tour.’ It’s unfortunate and disheartening to see how things have played out via social media. While I was looking forward to the rest of the dates, I have nothing but love & respect for Anita and I wish her the best for the remainder of her tour.”

Earlier this year, Babyface performed on one of the world’s biggest stages.

GQ Honors Donald Glover, Hoyeon Jung, & More at Star-Studded Global Creativity Awards - See Who Attended! https://www.justjared.com/2023/04/07/gq-honors-donald-glover-hoyeon-jung-more-at-star-studded-global-creativity-awards-see-who-attended/ https://www.justjared.com/2023/04/07/gq-honors-donald-glover-hoyeon-jung-more-at-star-studded-global-creativity-awards-see-who-attended/#comments Fri, 07 Apr 2023 05:36:16 +0000 Just Jared https://www.justjared.com/2023/04/07/gq-honors-donald-glover-hoyeon-jung-more-at-star-studded-global-creativity-awards-see-who-attended/

So many stars were in attendance to help GQ celebrate at the magazine’s inaugural Global Creativity Awards!

Donald Glover and Squid Game actress Hoyeon Jung were among the honorees at the event, which was held on Thursday night (April 6) at cultural hub WSA in New York City.

The awards event celebrated the world’s most fearless and inspiring creatives. Honorees in attendance also included Apple CEO Tim Cook, British fashion designer Grace Wales Bonner, electric skateboarder Tyshawn Jones, and director William Strobeck.

GQ editor-in-chief Will Welch said, “We decided to launch the Creativity Awards because, over the course of my 20-year career, I have watched creativity go from being a slightly mystical, unattainable, and not-terribly-monetizable attribute reserved for flighty artistic types to what it has become today: the sexiest and most desirable cultural currency of our times… What makes our first class of honorees so special—and so right-on for this new program—is that while together they encompass industries that include tech, fashion, film, television, music, art, design, and sport, none of them can be contained to any one category or discipline.”

Babyface opens the 2023 Super Bowl with an emotional performance of “America the Beautiful.”

The 64-year-old hitmaker took to the field at the State Farm Stadium on Sunday (February 12) in Glendale, Ariz. His performance comes before the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs face off in the highly anticipated showdown.

Babyface wore a black suit, which he complimented with a diamond-encrusted chain link necklace. He strummed out the song on a guitar emblazoned with the American flag.

Chris Stapleton performed the National Anthem and Sheryl Lee Ralph delivered “Life Every Voice and Sing.”

Later, Rihanna will take the stage to deliver the much-anticipated 2023 Super Bowl Halftime Show. It will mark her first performance in years, and fans are already wondering what bop she’ll use to kick things off. We also polled fans and know that they are hoping to hear these 10 songs from her iconic discography.

We put together everything you’ll want to know about Babyface‘s relationship status and family.

Fans may be wondering about Babyface‘s relationship status, and whether he’s married and has children.

Keep reading to find out more…

Babyface has been married twice: he first wed Tracey Edmonds in 1992, and they had two children together, Brandon Edmonds and Dylan Michael Edmonds. They were married for 13 years, before splitting up after Tracey filed for divorce due to irreconcilable differences in October of 2005.

In 2014, Babyface married his second wife Nicole Pantenburg. They had one child together, Peyton Nicole Edmonds, in 2008. After seven years of marriage, the two split in 2021.

Babyface, 64, is now dating Rika Tischendorf, a 33-year-old German model-turned GM of Babyface Entertainment, who he recently referred to as his partner when asked about the title of his new album Girls Night Out at the 2023 Grammys.

“Actually to be honest, it wasn’t my idea. It was my partner Rika‘s, who produced the whole album. She came up with the whole concept. We started messing with it… work[ed] with younger artists, and it ended up working out cool,” he said.
