\n\tAriana Grande has reassured fans<\/a> that music remains a priority, even after her ventures into the \u201cWicked\u201d universe and her upcoming role as part of the voice cast in John M. Chu\u2019s \u201cOh, the Places You\u2019ll Go\u201d film.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe pop star took to social media to explain that she has read the comments and isn\u2019t closing a chapter on the music aspect of her career, even though acting has taken priority as of late. \u201cVery silly of you all to assume that just because i have my hands full with many things that i plan to abandon singing & music \u2026 !!! it is and has always been my lifeline. there will need to be room made for all of it. \ud83e\uddda\ud83c\udffc\u200d\u2642\ufe0f,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt may not look exactly like it did before but i much prefer how it looks in my head. i am having fun. i feel grateful and excited and inspired. \ud83d\ude42 finding a balance, between many projects and endeavors i love, and doing it my own way\u2026 so i\u2019m working on a plan to sing for you all next year. even if it\u2019s just for a little. i love you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tGrande, of course, hasn\u2019t left her music career behind. Last year, she released her seventh album \u201cEternal Sunshine\u201d<\/a> and, this past March, dropped \u201cEternal Sunshine Deluxe: Brighter Days Ahead,\u201d<\/a> featuring six additional tracks (including an extended version of the intro). She notably did not tour for \u201cEternal Sunshine,\u201d though her social media suggests that smaller shows could potentially be in the works.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn a statement to Variety, a representative for Grande reinforced her message, claiming that music will always be a focus. \u201cAriana\u2019s plate is definitely full right now, but she\u2019s genuinely enjoying this chapter,\u201d says the rep. \u201cShe\u2019s loving the opportunity to dive deeper into acting, and she remains incredibly hands-on with her various businesses. That said, Ariana has always been and continues to be a musician first. The goal is to find a rhythm where all of these creative outlets can coexist, and she\u2019s very much in the process of building that balance out.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tGrande is currently building on the success of \u201cWicked\u201d with the upcoming release of \u201cWicked: For Good,\u201d set to hit theaters on November 21.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ariana Grande has reassured fans that music remains a priority, even after her ventures into the \u201cWicked\u201d universe…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1015,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[1550,49,48,75,341],"class_list":["post-1014","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-ariana-grande","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment","tag-music"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1014","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1014"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1014\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1015"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1014"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1014"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1014"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
