Ariana Grande taking a 'step back from visibility' in the face of 'endless' public scrutiny

  • On Sunday, representatives for Ariana Grande announced the 33-year-old singer will step back from public visibility following her Eternal Sunshine Tour, which concludes in London on September 1.
  • The decision follows persistent public scrutiny surrounding Grande's health and appearance, which intensified after she released her music video for "Petal" on Friday, July 31.
  • A source told PEOPLE that Grande "performs a very physical show" with "a lot of athleticism involved," pointing to her nightly performances as evidence she remains healthy.
  • Consequently, Grande withdrew from the West End revival of Stephen Sondheim's Sunday in the Park with George, planning a "much-deserved break from public-facing work and appearances."
  • Grande previously described her album "Petal" as a "fight song" against public toxicity, though activist Charlotte Howard called for "immediate intervention" regarding the singer's well-being.
