Ariana Grande Gets Stuck in Elevator After Final Eternal Sunshine Show

Ariana Grande found herself in a tight spot following the final show of her Eternal Sunshine Tour.

On Saturday (Sept. 12), the 33-year-old pop star and actress shared more than a dozen photos on Instagram following the completion of her 2026 Eternal Sunshine Tour, which wrapped up Sept. 1 at the O2 Arena in London.

Among the snapshots, Grande playfully revealed that she got trapped in an elevator shortly after her final show.

“Stuck in an elevator moments after our final show,” the “7 Rings” singer captioned a black-and-white photo showing her and team member CJ Robinson trying to pry open the doors.

In a second photo, Grande’s boyfriend, Ricky Álvarez, jumps in to help. “Continued (i almost had it tbh),” the Wicked star captioned the second picture.

Robinson jumped into the comments section to note that she “wouldn’t want to be stuck in an elevator with anyone else xoxo.”

In August 2025, Grande announced a select run of tour dates for the following year in support of her 2024 album, Eternal Sunshine, which spent three weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.

The North American arena tour opened June 6 in Oakland, Calif., and traveled through Los Angeles, Atlanta, Chicago and Montreal before concluding with 10 shows at London’s O2 Arena.

Grande announced in early August that she was taking “a step back” from public engagements amid “ongoing public scrutiny.” As part of that decision, she dropped out of the planned West End revival of Sunday in the Park With George, in which she was set to co-star.

Grande released her eighth studio album, petal, in July, and the album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. In early September, she surprise-released petal (The Complete Live Album), a live album featuring performances of all the tracks from the studio album.
