The lead single, "Yes, And?", was released on January 12, 2024. It entered the Billboard Hot 100 at number one, becoming Grande's eighth US number-one hit. It is a house and dance-pop song, and the video references Paula Abdul's music video for "Cold Hearted" (1989).

The second single, "We Can't Be Friends (Wait for Your Love)" was released with the album on March 8, 2024. It is a synth-pop and electropop song, and the video references Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.[3][4] Like "Yes, And?", "We Can't Be Friends (Wait for Your Love)" also entered at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 and became Grande's ninth US number-one song.
