Ariana Grande is `60 percent champagne`

Los Angeles: Singer Ariana Grande says she is "60 percent" champagne because she has been drinking a lot lately.

"I don`t think I`ve ever consumed more alcohol than I have in the past month. I am champagne. You know how people say we're 60 percent water. I`m 60 percent pink Veuve Clicquot," Grande told Billboard magazine.

The 25-year-old singer said champagne helped inspire her latest single "Thank U, Next".

Discussing the success of the track, she said: "I can`t believe it but, like, so can. It`s me and my besties tipsy off champagne -- and me with a broken heart -- just letting it out and having fun. I love this more than any other song I`ve ever put out."

Another song on her new album, "7 Rings" was written after a "challenging" day that saw Grande and her friends buy engagement rings in an alcohol-fuelled shopping trip to cheer themselves up, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"It was a... challenging fall day in New York. Me and my friends went to Tiffany`s together, just because we needed some retail therapy. You know how when you`re waiting at Tiffany`s they give you lots of champagne? 

"They got us very tipsy, so we bought seven engagement rings, and when I got back to the studio I gave everybody a friendship ring. That`s why we have these, and that`s where the song idea came from."
