The long wait has come to an end. After a week of teasers and posts from both superstars Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande, the much-anticipated collaboration "Stuck with U' finally dropped earlier. The internet is now trending with the new release.

The duet project is a collaborative work under Universal Music Group and SB Projects that aims to provide support to the First Responders Children's Foundation. All stream and sales proceeds from the song will be donated to the non-profit organization and will benefit children in the form of study grants and scholarships. SB Projects is the entertainment and marketing company of Scott Braun, the manager of both Bieber and Grande. "Stuck with U" serves as the kick-off project of other music compilation that will benefit charitable organizations throughout this year.

First Responders Children's Foundation was created in 2002 to support through financial means, children who have lost a parent in the line of duty, and to families who are undergoing financial struggles due to tragic circumstances. The foundation is focused now on those impacted by the coronavirus pandemic, particularly children of paramedics, healthcare workers, EMTs or emergency medical technicians, firefighters, and police officers.

The friendship of Justin and Ari goes way back about a decade ago when Ari has yet to release her debut album, and Justin was still in his pre-teen years. In 2015, Justin made a surprise appearance in the "Honeymoon Tour" concert of Ari in Los Angeles, where they sang "As Long as You Love Me." It is the first time the pop stars have come to work on a real project together.

"Thank U, Next" singer expressed her excitement on the duet on a post saying how happy she had waited for it to happen. She wrote about how she loved the song and the fulfillment of doing the project.

Previous to the release, both artists invited their fans to send in videos having fun in quarantine with a snippet of the instrumental tune that will be added to the "Stuck with U" video. Bieber wrote that "this is the prom song for everyone" that can no longer attend the prom due to the lockdown. He also encouraged the rest to do the same with their loved ones. Grande asked the same on her post, inviting the fans to dance with their loved ones or pets or "whatever/whoever brings u comfort during this quarantine," even those alone by themselves.

The final video released earlier is a compilation of the videos sent in by fans and celebrities dancing or hugging to the tune of "Stuck with U." Some of the clips shown are from those who were supposed to be dancing in their prom outfits. Countless other videos show scenes of dancing or hugging their loved ones, their children, their families, partners, pets, or by themselves.

Celebrities joined the fun too. Michael Bublé was hugging his daughter, Stephen Curry, sharing a drink with Ayesha, Justin, with wife Hailey enjoying a walk or lounging at their home, Ariana hugging her doggo, Gwyneth Paltrow and hubby dancing, and more. Towards the end of the video, Ari is seen dancing with her rumored boyfriend, Dalton Gomez - and the Arianators are loving it.

Ariana was quick to note, though, that she did not allow or approve the clip with controversial Carole Baskin of "Tiger King" fame. She reacted and said her piece when Bieber posted the cameo teaser on his IG. Baskin sent in a video dancing with her second husband in a Fur Ball gala outfits.
