Ariana Grande prepared for New Year's Eve with a carousel of photos on Instagram to mark the year that was. The roundup included a photo of her in a leotard in what appears to be a Wicked dance rehearsal,

Ariana Grande thinks she'd have "ended up in an insane asylum" if she hadn't done so much preparation for Wicked. The Thank U, Next hitmaker plays Glinda in the two-part adaptation of the beloved musical and she was determined to win the role on merit by pushing herself to the limit.

Few people have had the sort of year that Ariana Grande did. After wrapping production on Wicked, the Grammy Award winner also put out a new album, hosted Saturday Night Live, and debuted a new relationship following a much-publicized divorce.

Ariana Grande is reflecting on a highly productive and successful year. On Tuesday (Dec. 31), the 31-year-old pop star and actress looked back on 2024, sharing a series of nostalgic photos and videos.
