Twenty-six years after its release in 1998, Ariana Grande has reignited the spirit of the classic hit Brandy and Monica’s iconic “The Boy Is Mine” duet thanks to her song of the same name off her Eternal Sunshine album. Now, the 30-year-old songstress is dropping the official remix on June 21, which features the two R&B stars.
The news of the upcoming remix comes not too long after Grande dropped the music video for the song which features cameos from the two singers as news anchors.

“ i …………. cannot believe this is real (i don’t know if I will even long after it’s out),” Grande captioned her post. “My deepest and sincerest thank you to Brandy and Monica, not only for joining me for this moment, but for your generosity, your kindness, and for the countless ways in which you have inspired me.”
She continued, “It is near impossible to say how much this means to me. This is in celebration of you both and the impact that you have had on every vocalist, vocal producer, musician, artist that is creating today.”
Grande has already been promoting her upcoming role as Glinda in the upcoming musical movie Wicked, which is slated for a Nov. 27 release.
She is starring alongside Cynthia Erivo, who will be playing Elphaba.
“All I remember was holding hands with Cynthia and Jon and crying,” Grande said during an interview with People when asked about the film. “And [Jon] saying, ‘Welcome to Wicked.'”
