Ariana Grande premiered her new single, “Focus,” at midnight on Friday. Watch the music video below!

“Focus” is the lead single from the singer’s upcoming album, Moonlight. Grande has spent the last few weeks teasing the song, as well as its cover art, which can be seen at right. In the hours leading up to the track’s release, the pop star held a countdown on Twitter, and retweeted messages from fans expressing their excitement.

Aside from collaborations with Cashmere Cat, Andrea Bocelli, and others, this is the first new music from Grande all year. Her last single, “One Last Time,” came out in February, but had previously been released as part of her 2014 My Everything album. With three more dates left on her “Honeymoon” tour, there’s a good chance “Focus” will be added to her set list, though fans will have to wait until December to find out.

A release date hasn’t been announced yet for the Moonlight album, but this should at least wet Arianators’ appetites. Grande joins the recent trend of performers debuting new music and the accompanying video simultaneously, which Adele and Justin Bieber did to great success last week. Listen and watch “Focus” below, and tell Gossip Cop what you think!

Burt Jenner is making one thing clear, he does not associate himself with “Keeping With Up The Kardashians.” Although members of his family, including dad Caitlyn Jenner, have starred on all 10 seasons of the hit reality show, when asked about it Burt replied, “I plead the fifth.” Check out the video below to see what else Burt had to say about Caitlyn and his former step-siblings.

Caitlyn’s oldest son Burt may be a Jenner, but for a long time that’s all the truck racer had in common with his father. On Thursday, in a segment on Australia’s “Today Show,” Burt admitted that while he barely had a relationship with his father in the past, since Caitlyn’s transition this year the two are closer than ever.

Burt, who at times interchanged pronouns, explained, “I think he’s realized that family means a lot to him. Just like anybody else in life, all you got is family.” Not only are the father and son closer, Burt revealed Caitlyn is much nicer than Bruce ever was. “She is a better person. Honesty is always the building block for any relationship, and at least we have that now,” noted Burt.

And while Burt’s relationship with his dad may have improved, one thing that hasn’t changed are his feelings about the show that made his family famous. Burt has made a handful of appearances on “Keeping Up With The Kardashians,” which catapulted his little sisters and former step-siblings to fame, but he says he doesn’t associate himself with the show.

When asked about the series on the Australian “Today Show,” Burt replied, “I plead the fifth.” He added, “I don’t really associate myself with it much. I don’t watch it. It’s just not part of my life.”
