Is it another hidden message in her music, or a mere coincidence of chance?

A fan dissected track 14 on Ariana Grande's Sweetener album called Pete Davidson and noticed the entire chord sequence was B, A and E, which spells out 'bae.'

'I was looking up Ariana Grande guitar chords (I don’t have a guitar) and discovered the chords to “Pete Davidson” are just BAE over and over,' the fan recently tweeted out. 'And I can’t believe I just wrote the Da Vinci Code.'

As many of her fans know, Ariana has been prone to dropping in secret nuggets in his songs and music videos.

Song 15 on Sweetener, called Get Well Soon, has a moment of silence that lasts until the time code hits 5:22, which is the date of the deadly Manchester terror attack.

The bomb was detonated outside the arena where Ariana was playing a gig just as fans were filing out, killing 23 people and injuring another 500.

The superstar singer has also been accused of having hidden messages in her music videos as well. In her Breathin video, a number of titles appear on a departures board, at what appears to be Union Station in Los Angeles. 

Those titles on the board include: Needy, Remember and Imagine, which are rumored to be tracks on her upcoming new album Thank U, Next. 

She has also used more overt messaging like in her new Thank U, Next video where she paid homage to four rom-com film classics: Mean Girls, Bring It On, 13 Going On 30 and Legally Blonde.

After a whirlwind romance, Ariana and Pete got engaged over the summer but the two called it off and split in October. In the aftermath Pete made light of their breakup in a teaser for an upcoming episode of Saturday Night Live.

The comedian joked about proposing to musical guest Maggie Rogers.

'Hey Maggie, I'm Pete,' he began while standing next to host Jonah Hill. 'You want to get married?' After she declined he responded: '0 for three.' 

He also paid a touching tribute to his ex-fiance during a Weekend Update segment, saying it's 'nobody's business' and calling Ariana a 'wonderful person.'
