“I feel so grateful to the acting, and I think my fans know that music and being on stage will always be a part of my life, but I don’t see it coming anytime soon," Grande, 31, said of going on tour ahead of Wicked 2: For Good's release in 2025.

"The next few years, hopefully we’ll be exploring different forms of art, and I think acting is feeling like home right now."

The Golden Globe-nominated actress then quipped: "I’ll perform at my mother’s house."

In July, Grande previously spoke about wanting to go on tour on the podcast Shut Up Evan. "I think it would be a really lovely idea to be able to trickle in some shows in between the two Wicked films," she said at the time. "I think there’s a version of that that exists."

It's been five years since the "we can't be friends" singer went on tour. Grande embarked on her Sweetener world tour in 2019 to promote her 2018 album of the same name along with 2019's thank u, next.
