Britney Spears Reacts to Ariana Grande's 'SNL' Impression of Her: 'I've Heard Better'

The "Problem" singer covered the pop princess' debut single while hosting 'SNL.'

Britney Spears may not be a fan of Ariana Grande's impression of her, but she is a fan of her music.

While hosting Saturday Night Live in March, Grande covered Spears' debut single, "...Baby One More Time," and mimicked her distinctive voice during a sketch where she portrayed a Tidal intern. While many fans thought the 23-year-old singer -- who also impersonated Rihanna and Celine Dion in the sketch -- nailed the pop princess' voice, Spears was not as impressed.

Spears is impressed, however, with Grande's music. "She’s very good. … I love her voice," the 34-year-old singer added. "It’s very smooth. Her real voice."

Celine Dion also reacted to Grande's impersonation of her. "When I met Celine, she was like, 'When I saw you, I peed,'" Grande recalled on Z100's Elvis Duran and the Morning Show. "It was so funny."
