Ariana Grande BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Ariana Grande has dominated headlines this week with candid revelations about her career, mental health, and upcoming projects. On Evan Ross Katz’s Shut Up Evan podcast, Grande unveiled that when she departed for London to film Wicked she secretly considered quitting music entirely, uncertain she’d ever release another album. This period marked profound personal growth, as Grande explained that embodying Glinda, a character full of self-assurance, reignited confidence she had lost through trauma. Playing Glinda helped her reconnect with creative impulses, prompting the inspired rush that led her to write Eternal Sunshine. She revealed that touring is both healing and challenging, calling her pop persona “a character” she tries to keep distinct from her true self. While the Eternal Sunshine mini-tour is a milestone, Grande underscored to Elle that fans shouldn’t expect another major tour soon—it’s a rare event meant as a special experience for herself and her fans.
Her much-anticipated Eternal Sunshine Tour is set for 2026, with international demand so feverish she added five shows to her O2 Arena run in London, now totaling a record-breaking ten-night residency. The event is already one of North America’s hottest tickets, with rapid sellouts and a public statement from Ariana about the trouble fans had with scalpers and inflated reseller prices. The tour supports both the original and deluxe editions of her chart-topping Eternal Sunshine album, featuring hits Yes, And? and We Can’t Be Friends Wait For Your Love, solidifying her ongoing commercial dominance.
In the podcast, Grande went viral for breaking down in tears at a surprise voicemail from Sarah Jessica Parker, stunned that the Sex and the City icon personally praised her artistry and grace. This emotional exchange dominated social media, sparking fan hopes for a future collaboration and offering an intimate view into Grande’s relationship with fame. She also spoke movingly about mental health, describing her persistent anxious thoughts as “monsters” she chooses to lovingly name and manage—a sentiment celebrated by fans and psychologists alike for destigmatizing celebrity struggles.
Grande’s calendar remains packed. NBC just announced she and Cynthia Erivo will co-host Wicked One Wonderful Night, a televised event from the Dolby Theatre in November featuring the cast and offering sneak peeks of new music for Wicked For Good. Industry buzz has magnified around these appearances, with pundits noting Grande’s openness this week could reshape public conversations on pop stardom and well-being. Throughout all the media noise, Ariana has used her platform to highlight mentorship, citing Madonna’s early support as a force for good in the business. Fans continue dissecting every post and interview, but this wave of vulnerability, creative resurgence, and blockbuster announcements stands as some of Grande’s most consequential public moments in recent memory.
