Feeling festive yet? Ariana Grande’s overly cute music video for Santa Tell Me should help. She’s even traded in her signature cat ears for a set of reindeer antlers! The visual is full of adorable onesies, festive jumpers, furry animal hats and stuffed full of sleepover vibes. The wistful but upbeat song was co-written by Ariana, Savan Kotecha and Ilya Salmanzade and the video was co-directed by Alfredo Flores and Jones Crow.

In Santa Tell Me, Grande is basically asking Santa Claus to let her know if the boy she likes will stick around so she doesn’t get her heart broken. “Santa tell me if you’re really there, don’t make me fall in love again, if he won’t be here next year…” Anyone who’s single can relate to this message!
The song sounds quite similar to Mariah Carey’s famous Christmas song with the same upbeat festive feel as the 1994 classic track All I Want For Christmas Is You. It was actually released for download last November and has stayed in the Top 100 on the US iTunes ever since!
The other people in the video are Ariana’s dance crew that have been working with her for years – they clearly know how to have fun together, as you can see in the seriously silly outtakes that appear at the end of the video.
