Watch Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo Wow the Crowd at the 2024 Met Gala Performances!
Music Nation 365 is thrilled to bring you an exclusive look into the electrifying performance that took place at the 2024 Met Gala. Attendees of this prestigious event were not only treated to a rare Ariana Grande concert but also given a sneak peek at the magical collaboration between Grande and Cynthia Erivo in the upcoming Wicked films.
Ariana Grande, the 30-year-old pop sensation, delivered a breathtaking performance that perfectly encapsulated the event’s theme, “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.” Grande made a grand entrance into the Metropolitan Museum of Art event space, carried by a group of fairy-like dancers, set against a backdrop of enchanting orchestral music. The Grammy winner shared a glimpse of this mesmerizing moment on her Instagram and TikTok accounts.
As Grande “awoke,” she mesmerized the audience with her rendition of “Once Upon a Dream” from Disney’s Sleeping Beauty. Dressed in a stunning teal chiffon gown, she went on to perform her chart-topping hits like “Yes, And?” and “We Can’t Be Friends” from her latest album Eternal Sunshine, along with fan-favorites like “7 Rings” and “Into You.”
However, the true highlight of the evening was when Cynthia Erivo, Grande’s co-star in the upcoming Wicked films, joined her on stage. The duo delivered a show-stopping duet of “When You Believe” by Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston, accompanied by a group of soulful gospel singers.
Grande took to social media to express her gratitude and admiration for Erivo, acknowledging her as a “divine and magical” presence on stage. The bond between the two stars was evident as they shared their talents and lit up the Met Gala with their performance.
In addition to Grande and Erivo, other Wicked stars made a memorable appearance at the Met Gala. Jeff Goldblum, who will play the Wizard of Oz in the upcoming film, and Jonathan Bailey, set to portray Fiyero, added to the star-studded evening.
Grande’s presence at the Met Gala was a standout moment, as she graced the event in a custom white gown designed by Loewe’s Jonathan Anderson. The gown featured a sculpted bodice made entirely of mother of pearl, embodying the opalescent theme of the night and paying homage to Glinda’s bubble from Wicked.
Music Nation 365 is excited to share glimpses of Ariana Grande’s sensational performance at the Met Gala. Stay tuned for more updates on the upcoming Wicked films and the magical collaboration between Grande and Erivo!
