Ariana Grande shared a sweet congratulatory message to Victoria Monét after the "On My Mama" artist scored her first Grammy award.
Ahead of Sunday's (February 4) ceremony for the 66th Annual Grammy Awards, Grande took to her Instagram Story to shout out to Monet, who took home a trophy for Best Engineered Album for her 2023 LP Jaguar II during the event's pre-show.
“My friend, you deserve this one million times over @victoriamonet !!!!” Grande wrote. “I am so deeply proud of and happy for you there are no words. You have worked so hard and given so much of yourself to this industry for so, so long while quietly being in your absolute own league.
"We’ve talked about this happening since the day we met and over many tour bus sleepovers," she continued. "It is the greatest joy to see the goodness you have poured into other, into your collaborators (I am so incredibly lucky to be one of them) over the years pouring right back into you. Happy does not begin to cover it. This is your motherf**kin MOMENT!!!!!”
Monet, who previously worked with Grande on hits "Monopoly" and "7 Rings," also nabbed the Grammy Award for Best R&B Album ahead of the 2024 ceremony. The singer reacted to Grande's message as she ascended the red carpet in a matching outfit with her daughter, Hazel.
"I love you so much," Monet said. "Thank you for being a believer and supporting me from the very beginning. You knew things that other people didn't know and saw things in me that other people didn't see. You've just been so ride or die, so this is my love letter to you, so thank you so much."
