The Dangerous Woman is back.
Ariana Grande revealed plans for her upcoming Sweetener tour Thursday evening. The world tour will commence with a 42-date leg across North America, spanning from March to June of 2019.
The announcement came during a troubling period for the Bang Bang singer. For undisclosed reasons, her engagement with Saturday Night Live‘s Pete Davidson was recently called off. That wasn’t long after the overdose death of her ex-boyfriend, Mac Miller.
But it seems as though the 25-year old is already prepared to go and conquer the world with her music once more.

The tour announcement proceeded the next morning after Grande teased her fans with a simple tweet which read, “hi.”

In an interview with Billboard, her manager, Scooter Braun, revealed he plans everything but lets her make the announcements whenever she’s ready. “Whenever I hear she teased anything online, I have a heart attack. If she announces a tour, it means she’s ready.” He added:
“Ariana is an extremely strong, incredible person and she’s shown the world that. Whatever she’s going through, she has an amazing way of triumphantly coming back with incredible records that last forever. [She] expresses herself through her music, and that will always be her therapy.”

Bear in mind that her latest album, Sweetener (2018), was released only in August and is still dominating the Billboard and radio charts.

Grande is not one to keep secrets and she certainly works hard for her fans. So it seems possible that she’ll merge her new album in with the Sweetener tour.
