Recently, the darling of millions, Ariana Grande, hinted that her upcoming tour might be a farewell… which seriously scared her fans! Moreover, as many media outlets write, she now looks extremely exhausted, and people are criticizing her for it… Could this really become a reason for her to step away from the stage? Let’s figure it out!

“Skin and Bones”: Ariana Grande’s Fans Are Worried

Since her recent appearances on red carpets and TV shows, Ariana Grande’s appearance has become the subject of intense discussions on social media and in magazines. As TMZ writes, fans (and haters) do not miss an opportunity to point out that the star looks extremely thin… Moreover, according to the media, some even attribute her appearance to a possible use of weight-loss pills…

People discuss her shoulders, her thin arms, and the features of her face, which, according to them, look excessively emaciated - and not only do they look that way but they also seem to affect her voice… In one of her interviews, Ariana simply could not hold back from the wave of criticism…

The Star Couldn’t Hold Back Her Tears…

During one of the interviews as part of the Wicked press tour, Ariana Grande gave a candid response to a question about how she deals with constant criticism of her appearance, and her reaction literally went viral online…

@Enews/YouTube.com

The reporter asked her how she handles comments about her figure and body, and Ariana, trying to start her answer, was already holding back emotions: at first she said something like, “Oh my God, that’s really a good question…”, and then her eyes filled with tears, and the actress truly could not hide how hard it is for her to hear such things day after day…

Support from a Friend

At that moment, her colleague Cynthia Erivo was next to her, trying to support Ariana, visibly concerned for her friend and reminding everyone that no one should feel vulnerable because of their body… In reality, Ariana’s tears were not caused by a single event but by years of pressure she has felt from comments about her figure, starting in her teenage years when her first roles and public appearances made her a target for strangers’ opinions.

As TMZ reported, Ariana has repeatedly said that she heard “all the versions of what is wrong with her”, and that every time she tried to respond or defend herself from rumors, new guesses about her body, face, and health would appear, which, according to her, affect and upset even strong people…

You Can’t Argue With This!

In the same interview, she emphasized that the criticism is not only about her current appearance but has become a painful part of her life: “You fix one thing, and people still find something else to discuss — it’s normal, even if you are just going to a family dinner and someone comments on your weight”.

@arianagrande/Instagram.com

This is how Ariana described how uncontrollable discussions about her body can be even in everyday situations… Moreover, some people are even concerned about her amazing voice…

Has Ariana’s Voice Changed?! — They Are Criticizing That Too…

Besides her appearance, entire discussions on social media focus on how Ariana’s voice sounds now. Yes, it seems unbelievable…

@Kevin_swiftie/reddit.com

As US Weekly wrote, in some online threads people notice that her voice during interviews and public performances seems weaker than before: according to them, it sounds “like she is struggling to breathe” or “more strained,” which, in the commenters’ opinion, could be a consequence of her current exhausted state… Ariana herself has not mentioned any health problems but one situation seriously affected her…

An Attack Nobody Expected!

Nobody could have expected such horror at the premiere of the Wicked: Witch sequel in Singapore… While Ariana Grande gracefully walked down the red carpet, a man suddenly lunged at her. The video of the moment immediately spread across social media: the footage shows the man jumping over the barrier and grabbing Ariana by the shoulders.

@people.com

The situation could have ended in real tragedy if her colleague Cynthia Erivo had not been nearby. She immediately intervened, pushed the attacker away, and security managed to act in time. Fans were in panic: no one could believe such a thing happened during a public event… and the details were truly shocking…

Fans Reacted Nervously…

Fans discussed the event on social media, sharing their concern for the star because she could have been seriously hurt… Many pointed out that Ariana could have been in real danger if it were not for Cynthia’s quick reaction and the security team, while others admired her calmness and professionalism even in such a stressful situation.

@people.com

Nevertheless, this incident added drama around the premiere, and now everyone is eagerly waiting for the release of the second part of Wicked: Witch to see Ariana shine on screen again… but will the person who attacked her be held accountable?

Justice Prevails

The attacker turned out to be 26-year-old Australian Johnson Wen, who runs an Instagram account under the nickname pyjamamann. From his posts, it is clear that he is a big fan of Katy Perry and The Weeknd but his fandom crossed the line.

@people.com

The man pleaded guilty in court, and the judge sentenced him to nine days in prison for creating public disorder. The court noted that Wen’s actions were intentional and could have posed a danger to others, including Ariana herself and the spectators…

An Incredible Beauty!

Nevertheless, after the passions around the incident finally settled down, viewers were at last able to simply enjoy Ariana’s absolutely flawless look in her new role — the good witch Glinda in the screen adaptation of the famous Broadway musical Wicked! For this appearance, Ariana chose a long ball gown by the brand Ralph Lauren, which noticeably differed from her previous looks during this promo campaign.

If earlier she most often appeared in pink outfits, this time she placed her bet on yellow. The dress was made of light and delicate tulle, with neat pleats in the upper part and a heart-shaped neckline. Ariana complemented the outfit with a matching veil, which she wrapped around her arms, as well as jewelry with stones by Swarovski.

The Film Immediately Started Breaking Records!

While public attention is focused on Ariana’s looks, the film itself is showing impressive results. Wicked: Part Two successfully launched worldwide, collecting 150 million dollars in North America and another 76 million dollars overseas.

@Associated Press

Total global box office has already reached 226 million dollars, and Universal studio is calling the project a major success. Splitting the musical into two parts has fully justified itself: the first film became a hit, and the second confidently continues the story, receiving high ratings from audiences!

Why Did Ariana Temporarily Switch To Cinema?

Ariana Grande’s decision to seriously return to acting was not spontaneous, as it might seem from the outside. In reality, acting appeared in her life long before global musical fame and always remained something personal and important to her.

11 (2).jpg @Getty

Even before contracts with major labels, Ariana performed in theater and played in the Broadway musical 13, where she was noticed by producers. It was then that she realized the stage and transforming into characters gave her no less emotion than music.

She Couldn’t Handle It Emotionally…

Later came the years at Nickelodeon, the role of Cat Valentine, and a sharp transition into the pop industry, which practically pushed acting into the background. Ariana herself repeatedly admitted in interviews that over time music became emotionally heavy for her due to constant pressure, tours, and public expectations…

@Getty

Acting work, on the contrary, gave her a sense of safety: here she could “hide” behind a character instead of constantly being herself under the cameras and criticism.

A Love For Musicals Forever!

Her love for musicals also played a separate role. Wicked was a special project for Ariana since her teenage years — she did not hide the fact that for years she dreamed of playing Glinda and knew the heroine’s parts by heart.

@arianagrande/Instagram.com

As TMZ wrote, when the opportunity to audition appeared, Ariana perceived it not as an experiment but as a chance to return to her roots. Moreover, in recent years Grande openly said that acting helps her restore inner balance… even back then it was as if she was hinting at something…

Music And Endless Stress

As Us Weekly wrote, according to Ariana’s own words, she feels less pressure in film than in music, where every release is instantly compared to previous hits.

@arianagrande/Instagram.com

Moreover, the star even hinted that she might eventually leave the stage as a singer… could this really be true - we will tell you a little later but for now let’s return to the beginning of this beauty’s amazing story! And what price she had to pay for her fame…

The Birth Of A Future Star

Ariana Grande-Butera was born on June 26, 1993, in Boca Raton, Florida. There were no professional musicians in her family but an atmosphere of creativity surrounded the girl from early childhood.

15 (5).jpg @frankiejgrande/Instagram.com

Ariana’s mother, Joan Grande, held the position of CEO of Hose-McCann Communications, while her father, Edward Butera, owned his own graphic design studio. Ariana also has an older half-brother, Frankie Grande, who later became a well-known artist and producer.

A Cartoon-Inspired Name And Italian Roots

An interesting fact: Ariana was named after Princess Oriana from the animated series Felix the Cat. In addition, Ariana has Italian roots, which she has proudly mentioned more than once in interviews.

@needsomefun.net

The singer later admitted that she always felt a connection to the culture, emotions, and temperament that were passed down to her.

First Steps On Stage At Four Years Old

Ariana’s interest in the stage appeared very early. Already at the age of four, she began attending the Little Palm Theatre, where it quickly became clear that the girl had not only charisma but also rare vocal abilities.

@needsomefun.net

Her parents supported their daughter’s passion and soon sent her to study vocals with famous Hollywood coach Eric Vetro, who worked with many stars.

Debut At Eight!

Family legend says that a fateful moment happened when Ariana was eight years old. While vacationing on a cruise ship, she sang karaoke, and her voice was heard by Latin pop star Gloria Estefan, who happened to be traveling on the same ship.

@needsomefun.net

According to her relatives, Estefan advised the girl not to be afraid of the stage and to move forward. That same year, Ariana first appeared on television, performing the U.S. national anthem at a Florida Panthers hockey game, which became her first public performance for a large audience.

First Leading Role And Early Success

At the age of nine, Ariana received her first leading role in the musical Annie. For a child, this was a huge step and a serious test, which she handled perfectly.

@broadwayworld.com

Even then, those around her noted her discipline, work ethic, and ability to hold herself on stage like an adult actress. However, life was already preparing its first challenges for her…

A Nervous Breakdown Due to The Difficult Childhood?

Despite early successes, Ariana’s childhood cannot be called cloudless. As TMZ wrote, her parents’ divorce was accompanied by court cases, scandals, and heavy conflicts. Later, the press reported alleged aggressive behavior by her father and even a court-issued restraining order, which became a serious psychological blow for the child. As the media wrote, all of this allegedly put strong pressure on Ariana’s psyche and, according to those close to her, became the cause of a nervous disorder that she had to deal with in her teenage years…

@tmz.com

As Us Weekly wrote, Ariana reportedly underwent therapy for about ten years due to her parents’ divorce. Nevertheless, all these events - early performances, strict discipline, and difficult family circumstances - shaped Ariana Grande’s character. And from that point on, she could no longer be stopped…

Broadway Became A Turning Point

In 2008, when Ariana was only 15 years old, she received her first serious acting role - and immediately on Broadway. The young artist successfully passed the casting for Jason Robert Brown’s musical 13, which we already briefly mentioned, where she quickly attracted the attention of professionals.

@ Joe Corrigan/Getty Images

For this role, Ariana even received an award from the National Youth Theatre Association, which became an important confirmation of her talent and opened new opportunities for her. Moreover, this very project brought her something else that cannot be bought for any money…

The Meeting That Changed Everything

The musical 13 turned out to be fateful for another reason as well. During rehearsals, Ariana met Liz Gillies, who later became not only her colleague but also a close friend.

@vanityfair.com

Just a year after their Broadway debut, both girls auditioned for famous producer and showrunner Dan Schneider, known for Nickelodeon youth sitcoms, and received roles in his new project Victorious. At that time, the young stars did not even suspect that everything would turn out far from as simple and perfect as it seemed at first glance…

The Nickelodeon Rise And The Cult Image Of Cat

Schneider took both actresses into the series, and Ariana received one of the key roles - Cat Valentine, a strange, naive, and kind red-haired schoolgirl.

@jvnhair/Instagram.com

After the premiere in 2010, Grande’s career literally skyrocketed: she began to be recognized on the streets, and the heroine quickly became iconic for an entire generation of viewers. For many audiences, Cat Valentine remains one of the most memorable characters of the Nickelodeon era…

Sam & Cat And The Desire To Distance Herself From The Past

In 2013, the spin-off of Victorious - Sam & Cat - aired, created largely with Ariana’s popularity in mind. In it, her heroine remained the same infantile dreamer, while Jennette McCurdy’s character was made sharper and rougher to emphasize the contrast.

@nicepng.com

The project was successful and lasted several seasons but later Ariana began to distance herself from this image and reluctantly recalled that period in interviews… and, as rumors went, there was one very unpleasant reason for this…

Rumors That Were Discussed Behind The Scenes For A Long Time

Over time, disturbing rumors began to appear around producer Dan Schneider. As People wrote, media outlets and social networks discussed that Nickelodeon projects allegedly contained double meanings and scenes not intended for a children’s audience…

25 (1).jpg @celebs/reddit.com

Later, Ariana’s colleague Jennette McCurdy openly spoke in her memoir I’m Glad My Mom Died about a toxic filming environment and the sexualization of young actresses. According to her, many situations were traumatic and went beyond what was acceptable… but she did not reveal many details…

What Would Ariana Herself Say About This?!

Ariana Grande herself avoided direct comments about working with the producer for a long time after leaving Nickelodeon.

@CoverMedia

However, later in a conversation with ABC, she noted that filming environments for children should be safer, with mandatory psychological support and the possibility for parents to be present. Many perceived these words as a veiled admission that the experience was far from cloudless…

Music As Salvation?

And if today many assume that Ariana wants to return to cinema because the music industry has become difficult for her, back then everything was completely the opposite.

@Frederick M. Brown/WireImage

As TMZ wrote, fans and journalists assumed that the traumatic television experience might have pushed Ariana toward the final decision to focus on a music career… after all, music could give her more freedom of self-expression and the opportunity to speak in her own voice rather than fulfill all the wishes of a producer… Thus began Ariana Grande’s path to becoming one of the most influential pop stars of her generation!

A Dream She Worked Toward for Three Years

Ariana Grande’s debut album did not appear by chance and was not thrown together “on the fly.” She worked on her first record for almost three years — from 2010 to 2013. For her, it was not just the beginning of a solo career but the fulfillment of a childhood dream: to record her own R&B album…

@celebs/reddit.com

When the album Yours Truly was finally released, the industry reacted with caution. But already in its first week, 138 thousand copies were sold — a figure that immediately caught the attention of the music world. And just a couple of months later, something happened that was then called a sensation: Ariana’s debut album took first place on the Billboard 200 chart!

Only A Chosen Few Managed This!

In the history of the Billboard 200, this had only happened to two artists — Kesha and Ariana Grande. For a very first album to immediately soar to the top of the country’s main chart and hold that position was considered almost impossible but clearly not for Ariana!

29 (1).jpg @Jason Kempin/Getty Images

Music critics began talking about the arrival of a major new star, and labels spoke of the loudest breakthrough of the year. Ariana instantly stopped being just a former Nickelodeon actress and became a serious singer everyone was talking about!

Yours Truly And The Romance Everyone Talked About

In 2013, Ariana officially introduced Yours Truly to the world. While working on the album, she drew inspiration from Amy Winehouse and Christina Aguilera, focusing on raw emotion and powerful vocals. After the success of the release, the album was expanded into a deluxe version, which included the now-iconic single The Way — a duet with rising rap star Mac Miller.

@Lloyd Bishop/NBCU Photo Bank/NBCUniversal via Getty Images via Getty

The track instantly entered the Billboard Hot 100 Top 10, and a romance flared up between the artists — complicated, emotional, and destined to end tragically… but we will talk about that a little later. At the time, music publications awarded Ariana the title of “the hottest breakthrough of the year,” and that title was more than deserved!

The Second Album And Cementing Success

If anyone thought the success was accidental, Ariana quickly erased all doubts in 2014. Just one year after her debut, she released her second album, My Everything.

31 (2).jpg @people.com

The record once again topped global charts, and its lead hit One Last Time became an emotional calling card of the singer. The album went double platinum, was nominated for a Grammy, and entered the Top 10 in twenty countries worldwide. At that moment, it became absolutely clear: Ariana Grande was a full-fledged global pop star.

Ariana Even Impressed The Skeptics!

By 2015, Ariana felt completely confident at the top of the industry. That year, she gave 15 concerts and earned about 14 million dollars — nearly one million dollars per show. A total of 290 thousand tickets were sold, and her name was firmly established among the most profitable artists of her generation.

@people.com

By that point, her discography already included three albums, and each one was a breakthrough. In 57 years of Billboard Hot 100 history, only one artist managed to place all three albums in the Top 10 — and that artist was Ariana Grande.

A Voice Compared To Legends

After the release of Yours Truly, critics increasingly began comparing Ariana to Mariah Carey — and not only because of stylistic similarities. Grande possesses a soprano voice with a range of four octaves, and according to some estimates, up to four and a half octaves.

@Kevin Mazur/Getty Images for Global Citizen

She freely commands the so-called “whistle register,” extremely high notes that on the modern stage only Carey herself can reliably perform. It is no surprise that Ariana was soon placed alongside the legendary “vocal trinity” — Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, and Celine Dion!

Saying Goodbye To The Sweet Girl Image

Over time, Ariana Grande began moving away from the image of a naive and carefree girl that the audience remembered from her Nickelodeon days. This was completely natural: she was growing up, changing, and increasingly unwilling to fit into other people’s expectations. By the mid-2010s, it became clear that Ariana was ready to show the world a completely different version of herself — bolder, more confident, and independent.

@therevolverclub.com

In 2016, she released her third studio album Dangerous Woman, which became a true turning point in her career. In interviews, Ariana explained that a “dangerous woman” is someone who is not afraid to be herself, to speak openly about her feelings, and to stand her ground. And that was how Ariana’s new, very sexy image was born…

The Manchester Tragedy

However, in 2017, her life and the bright streak in her career suddenly changed… During Ariana’s concert in Manchester, a terrorist attack occurred. In the concert hall foyer, a suicide bomber detonated an explosive device.

35 (1).jpg @ Getty Images/Dave Hogan for One Love Manchester

Twenty-three people were killed, and more than a hundred were injured… This tragedy shocked the entire world and became one of the most horrific events in modern music history. For Ariana herself, it was a blow after which life could never be the same…

Support And One Love Manchester

Despite the immense shock, Ariana found the strength to support the victims. She visited the injured in the hospital together with other famous artists - Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, and the musicians of Coldplay.

@Ariana Grande / Instagram.com

Later, the singer organized the charity concert One Love Manchester to raise funds for the victims and their families. The concert became a symbol of unity and a reminder that music can bring people together even in the darkest moments…

The First Grammy And A Moment Of Silence…

Already in 2018, Ariana Grande released her fourth studio album Sweetener, which became more than just a new project for her… It was this release that brought her the first Grammy of her career — in the category of Best Pop Album.

@nytimes.com

The most personal and emotional track on the album was the ballad Get Well Soon, dedicated to the victims of the Manchester attack. In this song, Grande embedded deep hidden meaning. The track contains 40 seconds of silence — like a moment of remembrance for those who died. And the total length of the song is 5 minutes and 22 seconds, a direct reference to the date of the tragedy — May 22, 2017…

Ariana’s Trials Were Not Only In Her Career

And of course, we could not avoid the topic of the singer’s personal life. After all, no matter what, it is usually celebrity romances that interest people almost more than anything else! Ariana Grande is quite the heartbreaker. Over the years of her career, she has had so many high-profile romances that fans struggled to keep up with the news.

@Dia Dipasupil/FilmMagic

Every love affair became a subject of discussion, rumors, and headlines, while breakups inspired new songs. Today, we recall the loudest and most talked-about love stories that once set the internet on fire.

Graham Phillips: The First Big Love

Graham Phillips became Ariana’s first serious romance. They met in 2008 on Broadway while working on the musical 13. Ariana was only 15 years old at the time, and these were her first truly adult feelings. The couple dated for about three years - which, by teenage standards, felt like an eternity.

@tmz.com

Graham supported Ariana at the very beginning of her career, when she was not yet a pop star. Later, the singer admitted that this period taught her how to trust and open up to people, although the relationship eventually ran its course. Even after the breakup, they remained on good terms, and Graham appeared at some of her early events already as a friend.

Jai Brooks: Was Ariana Accused Of Cheating?!

The story with Jai Brooks is one of the most unusual romances in Ariana’s life. In 2012, an Australian blogger uploaded a YouTube video jokingly “competing” with his brother for the singer’s attention. The video went viral, and Ariana’s mother, Joan Grande, advised her daughter to notice the charismatic guy…

@eonline.com

That’s how a long-distance relationship began, one that fans literally lived through together with the couple — from Twitter messages to shared photos. However, the romance was far from simple. As TMZ wrote, a year later Jai publicly accused Ariana of cheating, causing a massive scandal. He later deleted part of the accusations and admitted that emotions had taken over but this breakup allegedly became one of the most painful for Ariana.

Nathan Sykes: A Short But Bright Story

Ariana did not remain single for long. In 2013, she began dating Nathan Sykes from The Wanted. They met while recording the duet Almost Is Never Enough, and chemistry quickly sparked between them…

41 (1).jpg @Getty Images

The romance lasted only a few months but it was intense: joint performances, red carpets, and constant media attention. As Us Weekly wrote, according to insiders, distance and hectic schedules became the reason for the breakup. Despite the split, Nathan later said that Ariana remained “a very important person” to him.

Big Sean: The Most Serious Romance Before Mac Miller

Many considered Ariana’s relationship with rapper Big Sean in 2014–2015 to be her most stable at the time. They were not only dating but also actively working together, releasing several joint tracks.

@ Larry Busacca/Getty Images for NARAS

The couple tried to keep the relationship private but paparazzi quickly exposed the secret… Ariana later admitted that it was in this relationship that she first faced the challenge of balancing love and career. The breakup happened without loud scandals — both said they simply could not align their schedules and priorities, while maintaining mutual respect.

Ricky Alvarez: The Scandal Everyone Remembered!

Ariana’s romance with backup dancer Ricky Alvarez in 2015 became one of the most talked-about because of the infamous… donut scandal! A video showing the couple licking pastries in a shop (which they did not later buy) caused a wave of outrage and forced Ariana to issue a public apology.

@ Jun Sato/GC Images

The relationship lasted about a year and, as TMZ wrote, ended amid a tense atmosphere and pressure from the public… It was after this breakup that Ariana began speaking more often about being exhausted by constant attention to her personal life. But at that moment, she still had no idea that meeting the man who would leave a lifelong wound in her heart was just around the corner…

Mac Miller: A Love That Left a Mark Forever

In 2016, Ariana began a relationship with rapper Mac Miller. They had met earlier — during the recording of the single The Way, and from the very beginning there was a special closeness between them. Their romance looked incredibly warm from the outside... Mac supported Ariana during difficult moments, and she called him her closest person.

@GC Images

However, as TMZ wrote, two years later the couple broke up without naming the reasons but as many media outlets reported, there were rumors that the split happened because of Mac’s addiction... nevertheless, according to whispers, even after the breakup their feelings did not disappear. Mac continued to love Ariana, and the singer herself took the breakup very hard...

A Blow The Singer Struggled To Survive

And when it seemed that the pain was gradually fading, fate dealt another blow: in 2018, just four months after the breakup, Mac Miller died from an overdose - as US Weekly wrote... For Ariana, it was a shock from which she allegedly has not fully recovered to this day.

45 (7).jpg @arianagrande/Instagram.com

Later, in the song thank u, next, she dedicated lines filled with sorrow to him: “he was an angel.” These words became for fans a symbol of love that did not end even after death...

The Honesty That Millions Fell In Love With

After the Manchester attack and the death of Mac Miller, Ariana admitted that she developed post-traumatic stress disorder. Depression and constant anxiety were added to it. The singer did not hide her condition and openly spoke about therapy, fears, and inner breakdowns.

@people.com

It was precisely this honesty that made her even closer to the audience. Grande was loved not only for her unique voice but also for her fragility, vulnerability, and the ability to say out loud what many prefer to keep silent about...

Pete Davidson: A Rapid Romance And A Canceled Engagement

In May 2018, barely having recovered from grief, Ariana began dating actor and comedian Pete Davidson. Their romance developed rapidly: already in June the couple announced their engagement. They did not hide their feelings, constantly appeared together, and seemed madly in love.

@Kevin Mazur/WireImage

However, the happiness did not last long... In October of the same year, the engagement was canceled. As Elle wrote, many linked the breakup to the fact that Ariana was still in a state of deep emotional trauma after the death of Mac Miller.

Marriage To Dalton Gomez And... A Loud Divorce!

In 2020, real estate agent Dalton Gomez appeared in the singer’s life. Unlike previous relationships, this romance developed as privately as possible. In May 2021, Ariana and Dalton secretly got married, without lavish ceremonies or media attention.

@Ariana Grande / Instagram.com

It seemed that the singer had finally found peace. However, in 2024 it became known about the divorce. Online, people actively discussed that the reason was a different lifestyle: Ariana’s endless tours, filming, and constant relocations turned out to be incompatible with Dalton’s more measured rhythm of life. And it turned out that now Ariana owes her ex a huge sum...

More Than A Million To Her Ex?!

Only a year later did the former spouses officially complete all legal formalities. As the Daily Mail reported, under the prenuptial agreement Ariana committed to paying her ex-husband 1 million 250 thousand dollars, as well as covering his legal fees — up to 25 thousand dollars.

49 (1).jpg @ Jon Kopaloff/FilmMagic

In addition, the couple must sell jointly acquired property, including their house in Los Angeles, and split the proceeds equally. Well...

Music On Pause?

In the summer of 2025, shortly after the release of the deluxe version of the album, Ariana announced her first tour in six years. At the same time, she did not rule out that it could be her last before a long break... In the midst of the promotional campaign for the second part of the film Wicked, the singer admitted: right now she wants to put music on pause and focus on her acting career. Grande has already begun filming in the comedy Meet the Parents 4, and ahead lies participation in the 13th season of American Horror Story. According to Ariana, the project Wicked became a turning point for her.

@JC Olivera / WWD via Getty Images

“It made me completely rethink my attitude toward creativity. I learned so much from Glinda — a heroine who, standing in front of the mirror, removes her past layer by layer. I think I also had to get rid of everything superficial,” the singer admitted. And in the meantime, we are waiting for new roles from Ariana and really hope that she will not leave music forever…
