Ariana Grande faced a frightening moment during her appearance on the red carpet at the Wicked: For Good event in Singapore.

In clips that have rapidly circulated online, the 32-year-old singer was seen walking with her co-stars, Cynthia Erivo and Michelle Yeoh, when an overly eager fan approached them. The fan enthusiastically placed an arm around Grande and began to jump excitedly.

Erivo, aged 38, quickly intervened with the help of security to separate the fan from Grande, who appeared visibly unsettled. Both Erivo and Yeoh, 63, offered comfort to Grande, seemingly checking in to ensure she was unharmed.

In other footage of the incident, Erivo can be heard firmly telling the fan, “Get off her.” After the confrontation, Erivo and Yeoh held Grande’s hands as they continued their walk down the red carpet.

As of now, Grande has not made a public statement about the incident. Us Weekly has contacted her representatives for further comment.

Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo can’t stop and won’t stop gushing about each other during their Wicked press tour. “Cynthia is just an absolute brilliant gift of a human being,” Grande, 31, told Paul Mescal in a new conversation for Variety’s Actors on Actors issue published Tuesday, December 10. “I think we tried to keep […]

Grande, Erivo and Yeoh have been traveling the world on the Wicked: For Good press tour. The movie is set to be released Friday, November 21.

“To be able to act with this one and to share a space and to be a scene partner with you was the greatest privilege of my professional life,” Grande said of Erivo during an interview with Today on Wednesday, November 12. “Let alone sing with her, the greatest singer in the entire world. I’m spoiled for life.”

Erivo noted that she and Grande are “like opposite sides of the same coin” — similar to their respective Wicked characters, Elphaba and Glinda. The duo also got emotional throughout their Today interview, especially when discussing their friendship.

“So I think we each have something the other can love and can see themselves,” Erivo added. “It’s super, just, honest with each other.”

Grande remembered one vocal performance she had on set during the same interview, recalling how Erivo had praised her, yelling when she was singing.

“She liked something that [I] acted vocally, so when she was singing, she yelled, ‘Work.’ I was like, ‘This is the best day of my life,’” Grande said. “It was really funny. That was a good one.”

Cynthia Erivo will always support her Wicked costar Ariana Grande — no matter what. During an appearance at Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea Film Festival, Erivo, 37, was asked about Grande’s recent comments about being bullied online. “I think cyberbullying is quite dangerous, to be honest, because it’s easy to be behind the computer and type […]

Erivo noted that she couldn’t help herself.

“I don’t know how to contain it,” Erivo replied. “If I hear something that I really like, if she does something that I really like very clearly, I verbally have to express myself.”

The women have not been shy about sharing their close-knit friendship with fans, even becoming a meme (“holding space,” anyone?) during the first Wicked press tour last year.

“I’m just trying to comfort Cynthia because she’s very emotional and so — physical touch we’re very that way — so I grab her finger,” Grande said of the moment on The Graham Norton Show in January. “I don’t know what else to do with myself. … It was just energy that I didn’t know what to do with and it came out in that way because it was well-intentioned and I wanted to be loving and there for her.”

Grande added, “Why this? I don’t f***ing know.”
