Some things in life are constant, like death, taxes, and Ariana Grande singing about sex. I mean, part of the reason why we love her is she's so comfortable belting out about getting it on.
Like remember when everyone realized what her hit song "Side to Side" with Nicki Minaj was *REALLY* about?:
And how about when everyone misheard her lyrics to "Everyday," thinking her man was making her "nut quick" instead of "not quit"?!:
Also I would be remiss if I didn't mention *THIS* happening in her "God Is A Woman" video:
remember when i fingered the earth
But she hasn't stopped there. This is the first verse on the title track for her latest album Sweetener:
Now, "licking the bowl" sounds innocent enough, right? I mean, maybe not the best table manners but we can let that slide. Except when you go to the Urban Dictionary definition for the phrase, you get this (although Ariana herself hasn't confirmed that this specifically is what she means):
So not only is Ariana probably singing about Pete Davidson eating her out after she has an orgasm, but she's saying he does it SO well it "touches [her] soul." I'm.............
When I showed my coworker Stephen the ACTUAL meaning of the lyric, this was his reaction:
BuzzFeed is just finding out what @ArianaGrande meant when she said “I like the way you lick the bowl” dhhshshahagahja https://t.co/zTgBonWOSr
And it's not just the BuzzFeed gays who are shooketh by the lyric:
People are saying they're rocked to the core upon learning the definition:
Call me a child but ....I didn’t know what lick the bowl meant.....until now...
Like, actually v. shewk:
I just found out what lick the bowl means in Ariana’s song and I’m shook 😂
But they're also really, really here for it:
I haven’t stopped singing I like the way you lick the bowl since I found out the meaning
Although SOME people already in the know were like, "Go off sis," when Ari sang the lyric:
when ariana grande said "i like the way you lick the bowl"
Also, the gays want to be included in on this one too:
not to be that girl but how would you ‘lick the bowl’ during gay sex? I’m asking for a friend
And to close things out, Ari shared this heartwarming meme on her Instagram Story last night that now has a totally new meaning to us all:
i like the way you lick the bowl
This one is pretty good:
i like ⊂_ヽ ＼＼ the way ＼( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) > ⌒ヽ / へ＼ / / ＼＼you lick ﾚ ノ ヽ_つ / / / /| ( (ヽ | |、＼the bowl
And so is this one:
When @ArianaGrande said "I like the way you lick the bowl" I felt that shit 😜 🤷🏾♂️
Anyway, thank you Ariana, for continuing to expand millions of peoples' vocabulary. That, my friends, is TALENT.
