MUSIC

Ariana Grande

Finally, pop music has its Amazing Kreskin, ponytail in place of spectacles. “My ideas are priceless, I know I’m the nicest,” Ariana Grande informs us on latest single “7 Rings.” “I knew you would like this, I must be psychic.” Totally! She sings, she dances, she reads minds: It’s her world, and you’re lucky to be able to pay your way into it for a night at 8 p.m. Saturday at T-Mobile Arena. Tickets are $34.95 to $249.95; call 888-929-7849.
