“She said that when she’s done with that, we are going to work. I’m excited for that.”

News of the potential collaboration comes months after Grande revealed she hasn’t started working on her seventh studio album as she’s been focusing on her role in Wicked, where she will play Glinda The Good Witch. The first part of the film will be released in 2023, with the second part expected to follow in 2024.

Ariana’s last musical appearance was in 2021 when she teamed up with Jimmy Fallon and Megan Thee Stallion on ‘It Was A… (Masked Christmas)’.
