Since 2008, the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/former-child-stars-still-acting-010430906.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:former child star still in the biz;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\"><u>former child star still in the biz<\/u><\/a> has continued to climb the pop charts and box office all while navigating public comments. So, how does she feel about the inner workings of managing her pop career with her acting one? Grande opens up about the complexities of her relationship to her professional successes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/11\/05\/movies\/ariana-grande-wicked-for-good.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:The New York Times;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \"><u>The New York Times<\/u><\/a>\u2019 interview with the wildly successful triple threat, the <em>Wicked<\/em> actress got real about how she feels about returning to the top-charting side of her talents. Grande explained that something was askew before hitting Jon M. Chu\u2019s Ozian set, where it recovered with the amount of time spent away. Along with it she shared there\u2019s an unexpected edge to accomplishing hopes by saying:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"mb-4 border-l-2 pl-5 italic text-tertiary\">\n<div class=\"\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">There was something broken about my relationship to pop music that was healed recently through the time away. . . . I think it got away from me in a way I didn\u2019t expect. There\u2019s a thing that comes along with your dreams coming true that feels dangerous at times.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As the majority of us know the 32-year-old will be starring in one of the biggest sequels on the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/upcoming-movies-2025-movie-release-130453990.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:2025 movie schedule;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\"><u>2025 movie schedule<\/u><\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/wicked-movie-release-date-cast-230411873.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Wicked: For Good, which is just a few weeks away;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\"><em>Wicked: For Good<\/em>, which is just a few weeks away<\/a>. In addition to reprising Glinda, she also released her 7th Studio album, <em>Eternal Sunshine<\/em>. But in case you missed it, she surprised fans with a 41-stop tour of said album that&#8217;s planned for 2026 \u2014 something everyone thought she was done with.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">It\u2019s always interesting to hear the perspective of anyone who grew up in the industry. The takes always seem to be insightful in a way that really speaks to the experience kid entertainers have in Hollywood. From the outside, watching Ariana Grande continuing to build her career looked as if she was nothing but content. However, being a young skyrocketing artist surely paved the way to have her dreams molded into something else than she expected.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Her undeniable talent certainly cleared the way for her to stardom in multiple realms, starting with her single \u201cYours Truly.\u201d Since then, everything about her life, from boyfriends to her body, have been up for debate. And yet, as Grande explained, even gearing up for worldwide recognition couldn\u2019t nurse or help guide all that comes with it. It wasn\u2019t until the past few years could she make peace and re-balance the extra baggage, as she said:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"mb-4 border-l-2 pl-5 italic text-tertiary\">\n<div class=\"\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Nothing prepares you for what comes with it. Until quite recently, it was really hard for me to navigate and I think it stripped a lot of joy out of this for me.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Realizing stuff like this still regularly happens to artists like Grande, and many females in Hollywood, is wild. Thankfully, it sounds like there\u2019s a stronger grasp and usable tools to keep many of the present inevitabilities at bay. I\u2019m glad that she was able to re-root in her wants and has been having a phenomenal reconnection with it all.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Some of her greatest albums have come post stepping away from singing stardom. The first time around was for the televised <em>Hairspray Live!<\/em> event and the other <em>Wicked<\/em>. <em>Sweetener<\/em> and <em>Eternal Sunshine<\/em>, respectively, came out after she swapped the studio for the stage. What helped pushed the envelope even further, according to the \u201cthank u, next\u201d singer, since parting ways with previous associates.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"mb-4 border-l-2 pl-5 italic text-tertiary\">\n<div class=\"\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">And by the way, I have a different team now. Said with love, but that was a piece.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">I just love it all for her. She\u2019s made it known that first and foremost, she\u2019s a theatre kid and always imagined to be more or less a comedy Broadway baby. But, as we know, the Nickelodeon-to-popstar pipeline complicated things. So it\u2019s thrillifying that Ariana Grande was able to have <em>Wicked<\/em> to realign and move ahead, even if it was a <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/movies\/articles\/ariana-grande-gets-real-said-174756738.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:'tremendous' undertaking 'mentally, physically, emotionally.';elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\"><u>&#8216;tremendous&#8217; undertaking &#8216;mentally, physically, emotionally.&#8217;<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">It seems like as Grande forges ahead, the previous complications may just smooth out, or at least be a little easier to navigate.
