Ariana Grande, Liz Gillies, and Matt Bennett's Performances Last Night Made "Victorious" Fans Freak The Freak Out!

@arianagrande on Instagram

Last night, Ariana Grande surprised fans by bringing Liz Gillies and Matt Bennett on stage with her during her "Sweetener" tour show in Atlanta to perform hit songs from the Nickelodeon classic "Victorious," which definitely made us all freak the freak out!

After a series of tweets back and forth between Ariana, Matt, and Liz, fans figured out what they were up to. Their theories and suspicions were confirmed after a video was posted on Twitter revealing that they were sound checking "Give It Up," Ariana and Liz's iconic duet from "Victorious."

Even though this song came out in 2011 when it was performed by Jade West and Cat Valentine in the "Freak the Freak Out" episode, it remains one of the best songs in the entire "Victorious" discography, as it is a fan-favorite.

The vocals. The lyrics. The energy. Everything about this song screams legendary. Not to mention, it is incredibly nostalgic and is a token of most of our childhoods.

As always, Ariana and Liz killed their performance, just like they did eight years ago on the show:

As if this performance itself wasn't enough to overwhelm fans with nostalgia and emotions, Matt Bennett also took the stage to perform Robbie's love song to Cat called "I Think You're Swell," which is from an episode of "Victorious" as well. This one definitely gave us the Cabbie content fans have been asking for since the show first aired!

I don't know what we did to deserve this, but Ariana really knows how to treat her fans well! Now THAT'S history!

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
