Los Angeles, California - Pop star Ariana Grande is taking legal action against unknown hackers who allegedly stole unreleased music, videos, and photos and are selling them on the dark web.

The 33‑year‑old filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles, as the Hollywood Reporter and People reported on Monday.

According to the complaint, her attorneys are targeting unidentified individuals who supposedly accessed private accounts belonging to producers and photographers with whom the singer closely collaborated.

The filing states that, in 2023 alone, 45 unreleased songs surfaced online without permission from Grande or her team.

The Hollywood Reporter identified the leaked tracks as songs like Fantasize, That Bitch Is Mine, and White Tee.

The new lawsuit comes as Grande prepares to drop a new album called petal at the end of the month.

She's already treated fans to a lead single – hate that i made you love me – and has been dropping plenty of teasers for her next music video and upcoming songs.

The Wicked star is currently on her Eternal Sunshine Tour, which kicked off in June in support of her seventh studio album of the same name.

Fans can likely expect Grande to incorporate petal into the setlist, as the tour will continue through September.
