Of 30-year-old Grande, Monica added,"What I am so amazed by is her humility, her compassion. On the day that we recorded, I received flowers and a note that was directly from her. Everything has been directly from her chest and, for me, authenticity, humility, all of those things are key." Monica tells ET that the process of bringing the original"The Boy Is Mine" singers started with the"7 Rings" creator and that she could not have been more humbled and kind when it came to approaching the source material. Monica also says that in some ways, it helped to build a bridge between her and her previous collaborator, who were long-rumored to have beef. "The process of the new collaboration did a lot of closing the gaps," Monica said.
In the new sit-down with ET, Monica echoed her previous statements and shared that while their relationship was not fully healed back then, working with Grande and coming together at new points in their lives -- no longer as children -- has made all the difference for them, so much so that they have talked more in recent weeks than they have in"the last two decades."
"I cannot wait for you all to hear it. Y'all gonna go crazy, I go crazy every time I listen to it. I let my kids hear it this morning for the first time," Monica shared. "There is a chance, there is for sure," she said, adding that they are"very much on board" for another project, song or anything else."It's team 'The Boy Is Mine' today, tomorrow, and for the last 25 years. We have a lot of catching up to do in the sense of giving the audience what they really wanted from us even back then. We didn't find a way to do it then, but we're finding a way to do it now.
