The new video for Ariana Grande’s “The Boy Is Mine” features cameos from none other than Brandy and Monica, who performed the original hit single “The Boy Is Mine” together back in 1998. Their duet spent 13 weeks at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 after its release.

Brandy, 45, and Monica, 43, play news anchors in the video for Grande’s “The Boy Is Mine”, directed by Christian Breslauer. The clip shows Grande tuning in for a TV press conference from the city’s mayor, played by actor Penn Badgley, and concocting a love potion in her kitchen to win his heart. Once finished, she dons a catwoman-like suit and breaks into his apartment.

While Grande’s “The Boy Is Mine” is a completely different song from Brandy and Monica’s hit single, its title was clearly inspired by the track.  “The Boy Is Mine” is featured on Grande’s critically acclaimed new album Eternal Sunshine, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, her sixth chart-topping album. The album also features certified RIAA platinum hits “Yes, And?” and “We Can’t Be Friends (Wait for Your Love),” which both singles also debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
