Ariana Grande has some pretty dedicated fans.

So dedicated that they are boycotting her latest single. Wait, what?

Yes, you heard us. Arianators are staging a boycott against “7 Rings” which was released on January 18, 2019, as part of Ariana’s 5th studio album Thank U, Next.

The track debuted at number one on the Billboard Hot 100, making it the 25-year-old’s second single to do so after the album’s title track, Thank U, Next.

Now, fans of the Grammy award winner are hoping for a hat trick.

They have been boycotting the song based on “My Favourite Things” from The Sound of Music in order to allow Ari’s next single, “Break Up with Your Girlfriend, I’m Bored” to also debut at number one.

If they succeed, Ariana will become the first artist to ever debut three songs from the same album at the top of the charts.

The singer found her fans’ activities quite amusing, tweeting, “y’all are so insane and funny and i love u. nothings funnier than ‘boycott seven rings’….. i can’t lmao. whatever’s meant to be will be, babies i ain’t goin nowhere.”

We’re crossing fingers for you, Ari!
