Ariana Grande<\/a> is no longer a part of \u201cAmerican Horror Story<\/a>\u201d Season 13. The pop star dropped out of the Ryan Murphy<\/a> production due to scheduling conflicts with her \u201cEternal Sunshine\u201d tour, Variety has learned from sources.<\/p>\n

The news comes just after FX released a first look at \u201cAmerican Horror Story\u201d Season 13<\/a>, which reunites several stars from seasons past, including Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Angela Bassett, Kathy Bates, Emma Roberts, Billie Lourd, Gabourey Sidibe and Leslie Grossman. Grande was initially announced to be joining the cast<\/a> at the same time as the returning stars; the role would have been her debut in the franchise but marked a reunion with Murphy as well as Roberts and Lourd following her 2015 role in \u201cScream Queens.\u201d<\/p>\n

John Waters, Paul Anthony Kelly and Joey Pollari also star in Season 13, which is set to debut on Sept. 24. Plot details remain under wraps.<\/p>\n

Back in November, Grande teased her appearance in \u201cAmerican Horror Story\u201d in an interview with Variety, saying she would likely be playing a small role. \u201cI know a little tiny bit. What I know I cannot say. I am coming into the world in a way that I don\u2019t know much about yet,\u201d she said. \u201cI received a text, a very exciting text [from Murphy]. I\u2019ll probably have a very tiny thing to do in it, but I\u2019ll be grateful to be a part of it because I love everyone in it.\u201d<\/p>\n

FX and 20th Television declined to comment on Grande\u2019s exit.<\/p>\n
