Prepare yourself Arianators! Ariana Grande may go country. The "Dangerous Woman" hitmaker, who has primarily stuck to the pop and hip-hop genres, reveals she would like to record a country song to fulfill her grandpa's dream.

"My grandpa, he always wanted me to do something in the country world. I don't know if that would ever happen, [but] if that opportunity comes along, I'd have to say, 'Hell yeah!' " Ariana tells ET, "My grandpa was like, 'You need to do a country song.' So, [I] gotta make that happen someday."

The "Side to Side" singer said she grew up listening to the Dixie Chicks with her dad, "so that's the most country I've been exposed to."

Ariana is getting ready for her upcoming "Dangerous Woman Tour" and a supporting role in NBC's "Hairspray Live!". She says, "I love, love, love, love pop music and I love what I do, and I'm very grateful to be able to do it, but my soul misses theater so much. I'm so excited about 'Hairspray', I have no words. Like, I love it so much. I love being able to be a part of something that, A.) is a musical and B.) also makes people feel good."

Ariana's transition to country may be a reverse from Taylor Swift who goes pop with her latest album "1989", featuring No. 1 singles "Shake It Off", "Blank Space" and "Bad Blood". The album received three Grammy Awards and its 2015 eponymous concert tour became one of the highest-grossing of all time.
