Filthy! Ariana Grande’s New Song Really Isn’t About What You Think It Is
Er, the lyric “Ride dick bicycle” kinda gives it away.
If you’ve watched the video for Ariana Grande’s new track Side To Side which features Nicki Minaj, you’d be excused for thinking that it’s just a cute little song about spinning.
Like, she’s on an exercise bike for most of it, so it figures.
But if you reckon Ariana is just really keen on the gym, well we’ve got news for you ladypal, cos the song is actually about riding so much that you can’t walk right.
For real. Ariana confirmed it in an interview.
“That whole song is kind of about, you know, soreness — riding leading to soreness,” she told MTV on the VMAs red carpet. “‘Ride dick bicycle is the lyric, indeed.” Um, okay then.
Surprised? Well Girls star Lena Dunahm is just as shocked as you are, taking to Twitter to share all her emotions when boyf Jack Antonoff revealed the true meaning of the song.
Jack just explained that the song Side to Side is about getting railed so hard you can’t walk. SO MANY EMOTIONZ.

We feel you, Lena. We’ll never think about spinning in the same way again.
