Ariana Grande has reached out to her fans for helping to make 2014 a "dream".

The singer released new album 'My Everything' in August and her single 'Problem' was a global smash.

She did, however, lose her grandfather - but the US star told fans on Twitter that they helped her get through the tough times.

Grande wrote on January 2: "Hope i'm not too late to say this but just wanna thank you 1 more time from the bottom of my heart for making 2014 so special!! a dream. ily.
