Ariana Grande to Do Press for ‘Focker-in-Law’ Before Taking Previously Announced Break
Ariana Grande will take part in press promotion for the film "Focker-in-Law" despite her August announcement that she was stepping back from public visibility after her Eternal Sunshine Tour. Billboard confirmed that although Grande has already withdrawn from a planned West End revival of "Sunday in the Park with George," she remains committed to promoting the family comedy, in which she stars alongside Ben Stiller and Robert De Niro, because she is proud of the project. She will also continue working on her business ventures, including her cosmetics brand R.E.M. Beauty.
The promotional push will take place this autumn ahead of the film's cinema release on 25 November. Grande's announced break follows the conclusion of her Eternal Sunshine Tour, which wrapped up on 1 September after ten shows at London's O2 Arena and grossed $107.9 million (£… ) from 638,000 tickets sold. Her representative said the decision to step back was part of a long-considered plan rather than a reactive one, a sentiment Grande echoed when addressing fans in Chicago, describing it as "thoughtful and empowered."
