Los Angeles, July 17 (NationPress) Grammy Award-winning artist Ariana Grande has reassured her fans that she is not stepping away from music, despite her involvement in the “Wicked” franchise and her upcoming voice role in John M. Chu’s “Oh, the Places You’ll Go” film.
In a recent social media post, she addressed the concerns, stating that music has always been her “lifeline.” She expressed, “It’s quite silly to think that just because I have a lot on my plate, I would abandon singing and music... This has been my lifeline. I will make room for everything.”
Grande continued, “While it may not appear the same as it once did, I prefer how it looks in my mind. I’m having fun and feeling inspired... I’m balancing various projects that I love and doing it my way. I’m working on a plan to perform for you all next year, even if just for a little. Much love!”
Last year, she released her seventh studio album, “Eternal Sunshine,” and in March 2025, she unveiled “Eternal Sunshine Deluxe: Brighter Days Ahead,” which included six new tracks. Notably, she did not embark on a tour for “Eternal Sunshine,” as reported by variety.com.
A representative for Grande reiterated her commitment to music in a statement to Variety, emphasizing that it will always be a priority.
According to the rep, “Ariana’s schedule is definitely packed at the moment, but she is thoroughly enjoying this new chapter. She loves diving deeper into acting while remaining actively involved in her businesses.”
The statement further added, “Ariana has always been and remains a musician first. She aims to create a harmony where all her creative pursuits can thrive together, and she is actively working on that balance.”
Grande is eagerly anticipating the release of “Wicked: For Good,” which is scheduled to hit theaters on November 21.
