Grande, who plays Glinda in the highly anticipated film, shared her disappointment in a heartfelt Instagram message, expressing both regret and gratitude toward her supporters.
Flight Problems Cause Major Setback
According to Grande, her team was forced to deplane after urgent aircraft maintenance, delaying their travel plans and ultimately making it impossible for them to arrive in São Paulo in time for the premiere.
“We did everything we could,” she wrote in a now-deleted Instagram Story. “Please don’t wish danger on us. No one is more upset than I am.”
Grande emphasized that she and her team, along with Universal Pictures, explored every possible option, including commercial and private flights, but none could meet the schedule.
Apology and Message to Fans
The singer conveyed deep sadness at missing an event she had looked forward to for over a year. She also urged fans to remain kind, asking them not to direct anger or negativity toward her or her crew.
She concluded her message by encouraging fans to support her co-stars Cynthia Erivo and Jonathan Bailey, writing:
“Shower my incredible castmates with all the love I wish I could be showering you with.”
Conclusion
Despite her absence, Grande’s message reflected both sincerity and professionalism. Fans in Brazil responded with compassion online, sending her supportive messages and praising her transparency.
The Wicked: For Good Brazil premiere went ahead in São Paulo with glowing fanfare, but Grande’s absence was felt deeply by attendees.
