Things we have Ariana Grande to thank for this summer: Giving the latex bunny costume the comeback it deserves, bestowing us with Dangerous Woman — her latest and most provocative masterpiece yet— and having a ponytail that just won't quit.

As if we really needed another reason to gush over the star, June 26 (that's today!) marks Ariana’s 23rd birthday. To celebrate the "Into You" singer, we’re honoring her big day by sharing unknown tidbits that even her devoted Arianator babes might not know.

Click through our gallery above to learn which cartoon character Ariana was named after, and 19 other little-known bits of trivia about the wonderful Ms. Grande.

Happy birthday, Ariana!
