Ariana Grande was left visibly shaken at the Singapore premiere of Wicked: For Good after a man leapt the barricade and reached for her, only for co-star Cynthia Erivo to interpose herself and drive him back.
The incident occurred on 13 November 2025, as the film's cast walked the red carpet at Universal Studios Singapore, and was captured on multiple mobile phones before being circulated online. Video shows a man pushing through the crowd and placing an arm around Grande; Erivo immediately stepped between them and confronted the intruder while security moved in. Grande was comforted by fellow cast members moments later.
