I think it will change a lot. I think the last 10 or 15 years will look very different than the ones that are coming up. And I don&#8217;t want to say any definitive things. I do know that I&#8217;m very excited to do this small tour, but I think it might not happen again for a long, long, long, long time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Grande began her career as a teen on Nickelodeon shows such as Victorious and Sam &amp; Cat, before moving into music and more grown-up acting roles.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Suhaimi Abdullah\/Getty Ariana Grande attends the 'Wicked: For Good' premiere in Singapore on Nov. 13\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/526105f58b60380fd7743befa2838591.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Suhaimi Abdullah\/Getty<\/p>\n<p> Ariana Grande attends the &#8216;Wicked: For Good&#8217; premiere in Singapore on Nov. 13<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Get your daily dose of entertainment news, celebrity updates, and what to watch with our <a href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/ew-dispatch-newsletter-11812417\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:EW Dispatch newsletter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">EW Dispatch newsletter<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;So I&#8217;m going to give it my all, and it&#8217;s going to be beautiful, and I&#8217;m so grateful,&#8221; she said of her planned 2026 concerts in support of her 2024 Eternal Sunshine album. &#8220;I think that&#8217;s why I&#8217;m doing it, because I&#8217;m like, one last hurrah \u2014 for now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The Oscar nominee and Grammy winner said her plans also include a movie. She didn&#8217;t say which one, but she&#8217;s been <a href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/ariana-grande-meet-the-parents-4-post-wicked-acting-gig-11745477\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:cast in Meet the Parents 4;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">cast in Meet the Parents 4<\/a>, alongside Ben Stiller and Robert De Niro.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;I spent so much time only doing pop music, but I grew up as a girl who loved musical theater and comedy,&#8221; the &#8220;7 Rings&#8221; singer said. &#8220;So I think the thing that will be best for my soul and also for my art and for what I&#8217;m giving myself to is if I&#8217;m chasing things that sort of feel just very right in the moment, even if it&#8217;s spontaneous, if it&#8217;s something different.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Grande said she&#8217;d doing &#8220;a small stint of shows next year, because that is something that authentically sounded good to me, and then from there, there are other things that are different. I think following those authentic impulses, it feels like a really good idea, a good thing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Poehler, who&#8217;s 54, said getting older helped her to listen to her body more and do what feels right.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Grande explained that she&#8217;s feeling more like that, but she hasn&#8217;t always.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;When I came into all of this,&#8221; Grande said, &#8220;my pop career sort of took over my life in a way.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Grande became a star quickly, which was not always easy to navigate.
