Grande Seacrest-iTunes move

GRANDE SLAM: Nickelodeon starlet Ariana Grande is having one helluva week. Right after Ryan Seacrest premiered the Republic divette’s single, "The Way" (f/Mac Miller), on his KIIS-FM show Monday morning, the track started ascending the overall chart at iTunes Store, which had made it available in synch with the radio premiere. Less than eight hours later, it hit #1, passing smashes from P!nk, Justin Timberlake, Bruno Mars and Rihanna along the way. Simultaneously, #theway became the #1 trending topic on Twitter worldwide. The video for the track will make its VEVO debut tomorrow. "The Way" is presently the fastest-growing single from a new artist this year. Smooth moves on the parts of Charlie Walk and his team.
