First, there was planking. Then there was owling and pillaring and a host of other imitators. But this is the best, and gayest, fad yet: Ariana Grandeing.
It all started when BuzzFeed’s Jesse McLaren decided to an experiment to find out how in the hell Ariana Grande was able to sit on the stool for the cover of her iconic 2014 album My Everything.

Once Grande tweeted about McLaren’s attempt, what followed was a swarm of Twitter users trying their best to fit both their ass and legs (and heels!) on a stool like the Flawless Queen of Ponytails.
