celeb news Ariana: "Im not going to make music at the rate I've been doing the past 10 years"

[RIKI232]

"I'm going to say something so scary, it's going to scare the absolute sh*t out of my fans and everyone. I love them, and they will deal and we will be here forever. I'm always going to make music. I'm always going to go on stage. I'm always going to do pop stuff, I pinky promise, but I don't think doing it at the rate that I've been doing for the past 10 years is where I see the next 10 years. I think I love acting; I love musical theater. Reconnecting with this part of myself…I love comedy and heals me to do that — finding roles to use these parts of myself."

 

and so it begins...

I mean, she took 4 years to release ES so this was kinda expected

[magazine]

Dangerous Woman is still fresh  Queen really doesn't need to move a needle, to be honest

[Azulito]

I don't think this is a surprise to anyone that really knows her. She's been pretty vocal about loving musical theatre her entire career. Wouldn't be shocked to see her on Broadway in a few years  tbh

[yassskween]

okay gran

[Nickibaby]

That's fine Queen! Her & Rih have honestly done enough. Everything else is extra at this point.

I expected this and don't mind. I'm looking forward to seeing what she does in the acting and theater space. Wicked is shaping up to be a huge moment for her in her career. She is the perfect person to take the Cher, Barbra, Gaga, Timberlake, etc. route. Diversifying her career is smart, tbh. Most artists tend to slow down in their second decade anyway. She will still release music but not every year like she was from 2013 to 2020. 

[Illuminati]

Oh Arihanna

[Raver]

Valid. 

[bielneira]

Lorde doing her job as a friend

[B-Luke]

I wouldn't be surprised if Eternal Sunshine was her final album. She's mimicking a Rihanna type projectory.

Releasing annual albums --> Unapologetic/Positions (2012/2020) -> Anti/Eternal Sunshine (2016/2024) -> the end

[stjosephprey4us]

She already said this once kind of recently. Wicked will be her ASIB, but don't worry, when her Joker 2 happens she will flee right back to the music world 

[OrgVisual]

I mean, 7 albums in 10 years is a lot so i'm okay with the slow down, as long as the quality is there

[mxoonlight]

It's a sensible career choice and I think she'll find success as an actress.

[NewStanner]

[ANTisocial]

well it's over 

[Adam’s Eve]

I hope Wicked flops

 

[Dolce Vita]

we all saw this coming. happy for her tho, you can tell acting/musical theatre is what fulfills her lately  

 

[Archetype]

7 albums in 10 years is impressive.  Gaga is going to release her 7th pop album 17 years into her career, we feel for you Ari 

[wantedyoutogrow]

this day couldn't get any worse

[Dialamba]

No one is surprised as long as she doesn't ditch her musical career for rem beauty we are good. 

[Onyxmage]

In before she announces her new clothing and fragrance collection. 

 

[Scandalous]

saw it coming

obviously will miss her music but will be first in line to see her on broadway  when she does decide to do a show those tickets are gonna be as hard to get as eras tour tho  

[Green]

Grande Beauty is coming

[on the line]

Finally a win for the gays today!
