Ariana Grande is looking to return to her first love: musical theater. The Grammy-winning singer, who plays Glinda in Jon M. Chu‘s adaptation of the Tony-winning Broadway musical Wicked, recently said on the Las Culturistas podcast that the movie was a "healing" experience that has led her to consider "reconnecting" with the theater world.

Ariana’s latest studio album, Eternal Sunshine, was released in March this year and received critical acclaim for its deeply personal songs. However, Ariana told Matt and Bowen that being so vulnerable as a musician can be difficult, while acting nourishes her soul in a “different way.”

The newly branded Ariana Grande-Butera wants to extend her one short day in Hollywood for a little while longer. “I’m gonna say something so scary. It’s gonna scare the absolute shit out of my fans and everyone, but I love them and they’ll deal,” she said during a recent appearance on Matt Rogers’ and Bowen Yang’s Las Culturistas podcast.
