Ariana Grande BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Ariana Grande has made global headlines after a dramatic incident at the “Wicked For Good” premiere in Singapore on November 13. According to Good Morning America, as Ariana and her co-stars Cynthia Erivo and Michelle Yeoh walked the yellow carpet—styled after the Wizard of Oz’s iconic road—a man later identified as a notorious event crasher leapt over the barrier and rushed at Ariana, grabbing her while she appeared visibly shocked and frightened. Cynthia Erivo jumped to her defense, pulling the man away before security could reach them. Multiple sources including ABC News and TMZ TV highlight how quickly both Erivo and the security intervened, but the intruder briefly succeeded in making physical contact, which left Ariana rattled but physically unharmed. The man, known from his Instagram as @PyjamaMann and with a history of similar incidents at other celebrities’ appearances, was arrested on site according to local reports from Inside the Magic. Mothership Singapore reports that he is facing court charges for public nuisance, with a possible fine, jail time, and deportation.
This frightening moment resonates even more due to Ariana’s past trauma, especially the 2017 Manchester bombing. Social media erupted in defense of Ariana, with fans expressing fears over celebrity safety and commending Erivo’s quick reaction. The Singapore incident overshadowed what should have been a triumphant promotional event for “Wicked: For Good.” Yet, Ariana gathered herself and continued down the carpet arm-in-arm with her co-stars; video and images of her being comforted by Erivo and Yeoh circulated widely.
Turning to her professional highlights, Ariana recently dazzled at the 2025 VMAs in an eye-catching head-to-toe Fendi polka dot look, styled by Law Roach. AOL reports she is nominated in several major categories including Video of the Year and Best Pop Artist for "Brighter Days Ahead." Ariana spoke in a behind-the-scenes feature about the personal significance of her latest project, describing how music has been both her challenge and healing force, and emphasizing her growth and resilience. The arrival of "Wicked: For Good" brings two new original songs for her character Glinda, drawing anticipation from both fans and critics ahead of its November 21 release as reported by ABC and Inside the Magic.
As for business activities, Ariana recently announced a new tour and continues to generate major social media engagement, with her candid posts and interviews about boundaries and self-care fueling support from her fan base. While the attack at the Singapore premiere is the most significant—and worrying—development in recent days, the overwhelming public reaction shows not only Ariana’s massive cultural presence, but also a widespread hope for continuing conversations about celebrity security and mental well-being.
