Ariana Grande made the 2018 MTV Video Music Awards a family affair on Monday night. 

The 25-year-old singer performed the hit single, “God Is a Woman,” off of her new album Sweetener. Over 50 backup dancers accompanied the singer’s sultry performance. 

She even staged an all-female version of “The Last Supper.” MTV later tweeted, “the apostles are shook.”

After Grande hit all of the high notes and nailed every step of the sultry performance, she welcomed her grandmother, Marjorie, mother, Joan, and cousin, Lani, to the stage.

The three held hands and laughed as Grande closed out the song.

Grande was joined at the awards show by her fiancé, comedian Pete Davidson, for their red carpet debut. The two packed on the PDA and just looked all-around adorable together.
