Ariana Grande has been one of the most prolific artists of the 2020s. When she’s not dominating the charts, she’s dominating the box office — and garnering nominations for every major award. But behind all of that has been persistent scrutiny of her health and appearance. To the surprise of her fans, she announced that after the conclusion of her “Eternal Sunshine” tour on Sept. 1, she’ll be taking a sabbatical from her career.
Over the last couple of years, Grande has been focusing on rebuilding her acting career through the Wicked franchise. When she’s not acting, she’s been releasing albums intermittently, with three albums in the past six years. What she hadn’t been doing, however, was actually touring. For her fans, this was the first time they got to see her perform since before the lockdown restrictions.
