Ariana Grande finds it inconceivable to envision a realm devoid of her melodic creations, and she reassuringly asserts that such a scenario is not in the immediate horizon. As the enigmatic vocalist behind "Positions" dives deeper into her acting endeavors, she has taken to her Instagram on July 16th to dispel rumors suggesting a potential retreat from the music scene. In a captivating video from the 2024 Met Gala, the 31-year-old musical sensation penned, "How naive of you all to presume that my engrossment in diverse ventures heralds an abandonment of my singing and musical passions. They have been, and will forever remain, my lifeblood. There's ample space for all my endeavors, provided we make room for them."
Indeed, the radiant star of "Wicked" hints that her musical journey might not adhere to the blueprint of her past works, a subtle nod to her cohesive musical archive. Her loyal fans, accustomed to her biannual album releases since "Dangerous Woman" in 2016, will be delighted to know that Ariana is now relishing the creative freedom to chart her own course. "I'm brimming with gratitude, excitement, and inspiration," she continued, teasing an upcoming announcement. "I'm orchestrating a plan to serenade you all next year, even if it's but a fleeting moment. I adore you."
Ariana's clarification arrives on the heels of her confirmation to star in the film adaptation of Dr. Seuss' cherished children's book, "Oh, the Places You'll Go!". This marks just the beginning of her acting triumphs, as she's also slated to grace the screen in the forthcoming "Meet the Parents" sequel next year. Prior to these endeavors, the singer will enchant audiences once more in her dazzling pink couture for "Wicked: For Good," premiering in November.
This isn't the first instance where the Oscar-nominated star has given a glimpse into her career's future. Last November, on the "Las Culturistas" podcast, Ariana revealed how her role in "Wicked" reignited her passion for stage acting. "I've realized how deeply I cherish acting, especially musical theater," she explained. "Reconnecting with this aspect of myself, the one who began in musical theater and adores comedy, brings me healing."
Yet, amidst this newly discovered affection, her loyalty to music remains steadfast. "I will continue to compose music," she clarifies with conviction. "I will always take to the stage. I promise you, I'll keep doing pop music. Pinky promise."
