Ariana Grande's Absence at Actor Awards: A Look at Her Busy Schedule and Upcoming Projects

Ariana Grande will not be attending this year's Actor Awards, where she is nominated for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role for Wicked: For Good. The ceremony will be broadcast live on Netflix from the Shrine Auditorium & Expo Hall in Los Angeles on March 1, with Kristen Bell as the host. Grande, who is busy rehearsing for her upcoming tour, will miss the event. She previously received a nomination in the same category at last year's SAG Awards for her role in the first Wicked film.

Despite being recognized at the Critics Choice Awards and Golden Globe Awards for her performance in the Wicked sequel, Grande did not receive nominations at the BAFTA Awards and the Oscars this year. Her fellow nominees at the Actor Awards include Odessa A’zion, Amy Madigan, Wunmi Mosaku, and Teyana Taylor. Grande's Eternal Sunshine Tour is scheduled to start in June, and she has expressed gratitude for the opportunity to perform before taking a break from touring.

In addition to her music career, Grande has upcoming acting projects lined up. She will star in Ben Stiller's Focker In-Law comedy sequel and reunite with Jonathan Bailey for a revival of the musical Sunday in the Park with George in London. Grande will also lend her voice to an animated Dr. Seuss film directed by Jon M. Chu and appear in the next season of American Horror Story created by Ryan Murphy. Fans can catch Wicked: For Good streaming on Peacock starting March 20.

In conclusion, Ariana Grande's busy schedule has prevented her from attending the Actor Awards this year, but fans can look forward to her upcoming tour and various acting projects in the near future.
