Billboard announced on Tuesday that Ariana Grande will receive the 2018 Woman of the Year award at the Billboard's 13th annual Women in Music event.
Billboard’s vice president of content Ross Scarano says Grande “consistently stands up for herself and her decisions in a world that often isn’t hospitable to that sort of strength in young women.”
Grande's charitable work helped raise more than $23 million for the One Love Manchester concert last year.
Her music has been soaring on the charts, with Top 40 hits in the past year including “No Tears Left To Cry,” ″Breathin’” and “God Is A Woman.”
The Women in Music event will take place on December 6 in New York City.
