Ariana Grande confronted by obsessed fan on ‘Wicked’ red carpet

Ariana Grande Confronted by Fan on Red Carpet

Ariana Grande faced a scary moment as a fan rushed her on a red carpet. Cynthia Erivo came to her aid, highlighting security concerns. The emotional impact of a past attack further complicates Grande's experience.

  • Crazed fan charged at Grande
  • Security failed to stop the fan
  • Cynthia Erivo intervened quickly
  • Grande appeared shaken after incident
  • Previous attack still affects Grande
  • Wicked film set for Thanksgiving release
  • Anticipated strong box office performance

Ariana Grande experienced a frightening incident on the red carpet in Singapore when a fan breached security and rushed her. Cynthia Erivo acted quickly, pushing the fan away and protecting Grande.

Rapid Response from Co-star

Cynthia Erivo was the first to intervene, effectively shoving the fan away. Michelle Yeoh, another co-star, also offered comfort to Grande immediately after the incident.

The fan seemed to find his actions amusing, but his behavior could be seen as assault in the U.S., leaving Grande unaware of his true intentions.

Concerns About Security

The incident raised concerns about security measures, especially as many celebrities now hire extra protection. As noted by fans, Erivo reacted faster than the male security personnel present.

This situation is particularly sensitive for Grande, who has spoken out about the emotional impact of a terrorist attack that occurred at her concert in 2017.

Upcoming Film Release

The film “Wicked” had its European premiere earlier in the week, with a strong cast including Erivo, Grande, and others. The movie’s success includes nominations for Academy Awards.

“Wicked” is set to release in theaters on November 21, tracking for a significant opening at the Thanksgiving box office.
