She is also preparing to go on tour next year. The Eternal Sunshine Tour will run from June 6, 2026 to Aug. 23, 2026.In her acceptance speech for Video of the Year, she reflected on her artistic journey, saying, “Art has been a safe space for me since I was a kid. I’m so grateful that I get to do this with my life and to have such fiercely loving and supportive fans. Thank you for growing with me and being so supportive of me as a human being navigating in real time which creative itch needs to be scratched, whether it’s acting, music, musical theater, or a little bit of tour.”Back in July, Grande teased that she’d be getting back into music. “Very silly of you all to assume that just because I have my hands full with many things that I plan to abandon singing and music,” she wrote on Instagram. “It is and has always been my lifeline. There will need to be room made for all of it. 栗♂️ It may not look exactly like it did before, but I much prefer how it looks in my head. I am having fun. I feel grateful and excited and inspired. :) Finding a balance between many projects and endeavors I love and doing it my own way…so I’m working on a plan to sing for you all next year—even if it’s just for a little.I love you.”View full post on InstagramWhile Grande skipped an after-party look, she still turned heads with four stunning outfits during the VMAs ceremony.
