Ariana Grande shrugs off crazed fan incident at ‘Wicked: For Good’ Singapore premiere

Yes, and?

Ariana Grande did not address the headline-making encounter she had with a crazed fan at Thursday’s “Wicked: For Good” premiere in her Instagram roundup.

“thank you, Singapore ♡,” the “Thank U, Next” singer captioned a carousel of premiere pics. “we love you 🫧.”

The slideshow kicked off with a photo of Grande, 32, striding through a hotel room hallway in a glittering pink dress.

She shared sweet moments with Cynthia Erivo, Michelle Yeoh and their co-stars elsewhere in the upload, as well as multiple looks at her Thom Browne off-the-shoulder gown.

In other snaps, the “Victorious” alum wound down with eye patches, smiled at a theme park and more.

The Grammy winner did, notably, turn off the comments on the social media upload.

Erivo, 38, shared similar snaps in her own post, captioned, “Singapore, you have our hearts. Thank you for the warmest welcome to your garden city. 🧹✨”

When a fan jumped the barricade and charged at Grande during Thursday’s event, Erivo was the first to jump into action.

The Tony winner reacted quicker than the security guards as she raced to separate the man, a fan named Johnson Wen, from Grande.

Wen, who was subsequently apprehended, has pulled similar stunts before by jumping onstage at concerts for Katy Perry and The Weeknd.

He was arrested on Thursday — but subsequently assured his Instagram followers he was “free.”

The incident “triggered” Grande’s PTSD, eight years after 22 people were killed in a bombing at her Manchester concert, according to the Daily Mail.

“Ariana has been trying to soothe herself because her mind automatically jumps to the darkest possibilities,” a source told the outlet.

Grande previously opened up about her PTSD struggles to Elle in 2019.

The “Sam & Cat” alum has battled “wild dizzy spells” and felt like she “couldn’t breathe.”

She told “Awards Chatter” podcast listeners in February that making music “saved [her] life,” explaining, “They were dark times, and the music brought so much levity and so did the experience. But it poured out with urgency, and it was made with urgency, and it was a means of survival.

“It felt really healing and freeing,” Grande continued.
