Ariana Grande recently announced that she will be slowing down her pop music production, surprising fans with the news on the Las Culturistas podcast. The 31-year-old singer, known for hits across seven albums since 2011, revealed that while she will continue making music, her release rate will decrease. “I don’t think doing it at the rate I’ve been doing it for the past 10 years is where I see the next 10 years,” Grande explained, emphasizing her desire to explore new creative outlets. Reflecting on her roots in musical theater, Grande hinted at a shift toward acting in musicals, calling it a way to reconnect with a part of herself. Fans can catch her next big project, Wicked - Part 1, where she plays Glinda the Good Witch, premiering in theaters on November 22, 2024.
