A friend of mine sent me a link to the Ariana Grande video and I said, um, this is a rip-off of Cold Hearted Snake. Because yes, the choreography is incredible and unmistakable. It's one of the best dance videos of all time.
Fun fact: 2 of the dancers in Ari’s vid are actually the grandkids of dancers who used to dance with Paula on tour and the producer of Ari’s vid is the 2nd cousin of Paula’s former stylist.
Homage is nice but dancing a jazz square and very simple steps compared to Paula’s actual dance technique, sorry there is no comparison. Paula is a real dancer and an amazing choreographer.
When an old performer get drags back into the limelight by a current star of coarse thier egos loves it. The new performer also gets to get away with what would be called a ripoff, if they say they are paying homage and the get to use an idea thats a prpven winner. For younger audiences it all new but for us oldies we already had paulas video to watch and madonnas song to listen to for 30 years.
❤ I think it is GRREAT that A. G. did a vid to honor one of P. A.'s best dance videos!!- butt , my Favorite one by her is stil." THANK U.NEXT" and my Favorite one by P.A. is " OPPOSITES 🐈⬛🐁 ATTRACT!💙 - 🤔 Hmm? .. Maaaybee A. G. shud do a cover of that one too by P.A.!?? 😃 ( What Do U Think?!) / Pennsylvania 🏳️🌈
video influence: Paula; song vibe ? a mix between 'I Will Survive' & 'Vogue' either way, i wish i could understand a word of what Ari is singing ❤#MushMouth ....
o Ari just uploaded a behind-the-scene-footage which focuses on the choreography and after watching it, I appreciate the effort she put into this more. Especially the dancing (I watched a lot of dance covers for this song and they are all having a hard time, shaking and can't make the poses right SO this routine must have been HARD, I'm not a dancer and I know the movements looked simple but I still think it was hard and needed a lot of focus), I believe she practiced hard for it. Ariana is amazing. I'm crying right now T_T
The video for Cold Hearted is one of my ALL TIME favorites!!! Still looks great today. The choreography is AMAZING!!

She did and blew me away. She's just excellent and raising the bar. Kudos to her and her amazing team. She's such a visionary artist.
Visionary = a madonna song and a paula video? If you say homage before people scream ripoff you get away with it.
And she did it. Mothering behavior tbh
@@krusher74 why are you defending people that could not hold a note
Omg the homage, fun, and way she did it was seamless - I miss the simplicity and fun of music videos - we need more of that in 2024 for sure

Ariana is a vocalist 💋
@@MrGusEnglishLessonsexactly
Basic.
And that's no shade.
Ariana was a ballerina as well i believe.
omg.... I knew this looked familiar !! Thank you for reminding me 😳
Wow! I thought it was a Madonna vibe, but I love that it was a homage to Paula!
Paula abdul had a Madonna vibe 😊😊
The song samples Vogue
Both
The song samples Madonna’s vogue the music video is inspired by Paula’s cold hearted
Well done Ari 💐 Love Paula too 💐 This may just be her best record & music vid yet ❤
The video is an homage to Cold Heart Snake and the song is a modern version of Madonna's Vogue.
QUEEN PAULA 👸🏻
Graham, Arianna is a genius and incredible. I am not surprised at all, just extremely pleased and excited for more of her work/art.
Ariana's dancing is @ the level of her singing ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
COLD HEARTED was the easiest to copy and teach. By far ........ The best dance Video!!
Ari’s song verses sounds like one of the natalie cole’s songs ‘pink cadillac’ ..
now I can't unhear it lol
I love both so much lol!!
Both Queens
Queen Paula
Queen Ariana
Yeah, she did an impressive job paying homage to cold hearted
It was an homage, but THE DANCING?.. not NEARLY the same caliber. Just keepin it non-PC real.
Baby boi you look like you just woke up. Fighting through it❤
Queen Paula
And thats what I thought.
The video maybe, the song is giving big times Madonna - Vogue!
I knew it! I thought the vid seemed familiar and I love it!

My very first thought was, oh this is a homage to Paula and my second thought was, Rihanna.
Its cool that she did an homage to the cold hearted video but the song and video together are more reminiscent of Vogue... to me anyway.
I don't know but to me it sounds more like a Madonna song.
This reminded me of Naya Rivera doing a cover of Cold Hearted on Glee. I guess they have similar tastes, huh?
Love it❤
M A D O N N A 👑
Paying homage….no pay Paula 💰💰💰
💕💕💕
It's cold-hearted on it's face ...The rest of it is VOGUE...
Plagiarism is hell
But Ariana can't dance
And I thought it was a Hommage to vogue by Madonna!
When Ari does homage she gets praised. When Bey does it she's accused with stealing. SMH
I guess Ari acknowledged Paula's influence while beyonce didn't...? that's my guess 🤷🏽♂️
This is Ariana's year.❤🎉
They both have/had eating disorders too.
Yes but Paula is full up queen, Ari is just empty and hungry.
As much as I like Ariana, Paula was WAY hotter!
Loved this music video. But Graeme, ya need to articulate better. You kinda sound drunk.
Leave Graeme alone he's perfect
Whoa, he totally does seem drunk. His facial expressions too…
video influence: Paula;
song vibe ? a mix between 'I Will Survive' & 'Vogue'
either way, i wish i could understand a word of what Ari is singing ❤#MushMouth ....
And her boyfriend is SpongeBob
Rihanna was laughing at her during problems 😂
yes, and??
lol
