‘Problem’ proved to be an instant success after being downloaded 438,000 times during its first week on sale and is the fourth-best-selling debut ever for a female artist.

Speaking about her initial thoughts on the Max Martin-produced track compared to her previous material she said: “It was so different from me.”

After some encouragement from ‘Right There’ collaborator Big Sean, the 20-year-old singer and actress decided to take a risk.

The pony-tailed pop star explained to Entertainment Weekly: “He was like, ‘You’ve got a beautiful voice, but this is pop music – you gotta take a risk. You gotta let go and have fun.’ So I did.”

She added: “It didn’t make sense to me as a single until I heard it completely mixed, and then I was like, ‘Ohhhhh, s***!’”

Whilst ‘Problem’ – featuring Iggy Azalea – continues to light up the charts, fans are still waiting to see the video which Ariana has promised will premiere very soon.
