Following Mac Miller’s death, Ariana Grande reportedly called his phone more than 900 times in the days after his passing. The two artists had been in a relationship for nearly two years before separating four months earlier, making the loss especially difficult for Grande.
Ariana Grande and Mac Miller shared a close personal and creative connection that developed over several years before their romantic relationship ended in 2018. Their bond began through music with the 2013 collaboration “The Way,” and they later started dating in 2016, becoming frequent supporters of each other’s careers while appearing together in public performances and events.
During their two years together, the pair faced the challenges of living in the spotlight while also dealing with Miller’s well-documented struggles with substance abuse. Grande later spoke about the emotional weight of those experiences, while still emphasizing the deep care and respect she had for him. Even after their separation in May 2018, she continued to describe Miller as one of her closest friends and one of the most important people in her life.
In 2015, Tom Holland landed the role of Spider-Man after a worldwide casting search that saw more than 1,500 actors audition for the character’s debut in Captain America: Civil War.
His background in gymnastics, dance, and acrobatics allowed him to bring many of Spider-Man’s movements to life naturally, while his on-screen chemistry with Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans played a key role in securing the part.
Tom later revealed that he discovered he had been cast after spotting Marvel’s announcement on Instagram, before receiving the official phone call from Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige.
