‘It’s an amazing experience’: Ariana Grande on acting |

For Ariana Grande, acting is an extraordinary adventure that allows her to step into various personas, differing from the personal connections she forges through her music. She relishes the opportunity to add her voice to a collective narrative, calling it a ‘remarkable experience.

Singer-actor Ariana Grande says acting is nothing but an “amazing experience” that lets one step “into somebody else and tell someone else’s story”.Grande, whose latest work is “Wicked: For Good”, where she essayed the role of Glinda, said the craft of acting is different from that of music, which is “deeply personal” and carries one’s own experiences.

“I think it’s an amazing experience to be able to step into somebody else and tell someone else’s story. With music, it’s very self-focused and deeply personal – it’s your own experiences, your own pain and joy. Acting is different,” she told entertainment news outlet Variety in an interview.“To take yourself out of it, to be part of an ensemble, a small piece of a massive puzzle with hundreds and thousands of creative hands, that’s a beautiful thing…I love actors…I love talking about acting. I love learning how my process changes. I’ll never take that for granted,” she added.Grande’s “Wicked: For Good” released in November 2025 and is a second part to Jon M Chu’s 2024 film “Wicked”. The actor featured alongside Wicked, who portrayed the role of Elphaba Actors Jonathan Bailey, Ethan Slater and Michelle Yeoh rounded off the cast of the film.
