Ariana Grande Reclaims the London Stage After 7 Years: 5 Best Moments
The pop star made a spectacular return to the capital for the first of 10 nights at The O2 (Aug. 15).
Ariana Grande is making a triumphant return to the London stage after a seven-year hiatus with her latest album, Petal. The album has topped both the Official U.K. Albums Chart and the Billboard 200, marking Grande's best single-week performance of the 2020s. Her new merch line, with its violent fairy pop core aesthetic, reflects the ethereal and defiant themes of her music.
Despite the heavier and more confrontational tone of Petal, Grande's opening night at The O2 was filled with impressive vocal performances, intricate video imagery, live sample looping, and enthusiastic fans.
