Ariana Grande has revealed that she is working on finding dates for a “mini” tour to support her latest album.The pop star made the announcement during a recent interview, in which she looked back at the fan response to her latest album ‘Eternal Sunshine’ and explained that she hopes to find a way to play the songs live despite her busy schedule.Arriving back in March, the project marked the follow-up to her 2020 release ‘Positions’, and saw her take a more subdued approach to songwriting, with NME giving the release a glowing four-star review and describing it as a “sophisticated break-up album worth losing yourself in”.It was also named on NME’s list of the best albums of this year so far, with it being summarised as seeing the singer “reckon with life, love and divorce on a comeback album that’s as inventive as it is intimate”.Despite critical acclaim and a huge response from fans – particularly to the lead single ‘Yes, And?’ – the singer never shared any plans to hit the road in support of the album.

Instead, her efforts have been centred around the forthcoming film adaptation of the hit Broadway musical, Wicked.Coming to cinemas in two parts, with the first arriving later this year, the film stars Cynthia Erivo, Grande and Jeff Goldblum, and is an adaptation of the musical of the same name.

It tells the untold story of the witches of Oz. A trailer for the film arrived in May.Speaking about how the plans for the film have taken up a lot of her schedule at the minute, Grande did reveal in the interview that she “still wants” to be able to fit some live shows into the mix..
