Ariana Grande fans recently saw a spate of rumors online about a possible 2025 tour, with some pointing to a no longer existing list of listings about the singer on the Ticketmaster website. The singer's label, Republic Records, has stepped forward to debunk the rumors, stating on social media that there will be no 2025 tour by the singer:
"There are no plans for a tour next year, but Ariana remains deeply appreciative of her fans and all their continued love, support and excitement."
The statement by the label debunking the rumors of the 2025 tour has stirred mixed reactions from fans on social media, as exemplified by the tweet below:
"disappointed but not surprised."
Some fans were bitter about the news, calling out the singer for letting them down. Others were angry at the label, calling it out for not supporting the singer and her plans. Conversely, some fans were understanding of the singer's situation:
"what a fu***ng mess, why did ariana get us excited saying her & her team are working on a little something and it’s at the top of their priorities list just to let us down like this", one fan reacted.
"so why did y’all say it was on top of y’all’s lists to make a mini tour. yall cant just say thats ur “top priority” for next year and then now out of no where say theres no plans for next year. pls stop getting our hopes up all the damn time its annoying." another fan reacted.
"this is so disappointing I’m literally heartbroken I’ve been saving up for months and planning my outfit UGH but thanks for telling us.. I still love and support Ariana & her decision maybe she’s just not ready to tour yet and that’s okay." one netizen reacted.
"Y’all ain’t sh*t..Can’t support Ariana’s career and can’t do NOTHING for her fans. A joke of a label for real", another netizen said to Republic Records.
"I actually hope she won’t tour until like 2026. Let her take the whole Wicked experience in, get some rest, find space to develop a good tour creatively and prepare mentally and physically for it. I’d love to see her again but only when she’s good to go." one commenter opined.
"She needs to rest from all the wicked things she done and those not yet complete....then we can talk about that." one reactor commented.
Ariana Grande released Eternal Sunshine in 2024
Ariana Grande released her latest studio album, Eternal Sunshine, on March 8, 2024. The album has been received well by critics and deals with themes of heartbreak and loss. Ariana Grande talked about the album during her appearance at the Zach Sang show on February 27, 2024:
“The loss and grief that you hear some of the album, some of the heartbreak stuff, there was so much love and transparency. That was something I really wanted to make sure was captured, wasn’t like a ‘f**k you’ at all and ever. Even track number 2 [“bye”], -"
Ariana Grande continued:
"I tried to make sure it was kind and giving credit for trying and for the goodness that there was. So, that was a tricky balance for me because I definitely had some sessions where I was writing more emotionally and reactively but that’s also very human so I didn’t want to erase all of it.”
Eternal Sunshine is the singer's seventh studio album, and her first since 2020's Positions. Alongside the album, Ariana Grande also worked on the musical fantasy film, Wicked, in 2024.
