Watch: Fans Think Ariana Grande’s New Tattoo Is a Reference to Ricky Álvarez
Ariana Grande’s foot is a little bang banged up.
The “Bang Bang” singer revealed she is adjusting her wardrobe for the final shows of her Eternal Sunshine Tour due to a cut on her foot.
“I wanted to let you know i will need to be in cozy footwear for this evenings show (and possibly tomorrow’s) as i am bandaged up underneath, recovering from a minor injury,” Grande wrote on her Instagram Stories Aug. 31. “It is not a sprain or anything muscular but just a deep cut!”
Due to the injury, Grande is trading in her high heels for flatter shoes, noting how fans may notice her having “a little trouble putting weight on that foot.”
Indeed, three days before her announcement, one fan account shared footage on X of the 33-year-old visibly limping while walking in her heels during her performance of “Supernatural.”
But while the Wicked actress may be switching the position of her choreography and outfit, she told her fans to “not fret.”
“On with the show and i am on the mend!” she shared. “I cannot wait to perform for you tonight and tomorrow (even if i am a few inches shorter than usual). i love you always.”
Indeed, hours after Grande’s announcement, another fan account shared a clip of the singer dancing and singing “Yes, And?” while sporting a pair of “UGG-style boots.”
As Grande nurses her foot back to health, she is also preparing to take a “step back from visibility” at the end of her tour, which her team announced earlier this month.

“She looks forward to finishing the tour and ending it on a high note, both healthily and happily,” Grande’s rep told E! News in a statement Aug. 2, “and then taking a much-deserved break from public-facing work and appearances.”
And though her team noted at the time that the Oscar nominee had faced “endless, ongoing public scrutiny” for her appearance, a close source to the singer told E! News that she “performs a very physical show,” and “performs healthily and successfully at a very high level night after night,” noting that “there is a lot of athleticism involved.”
The next day, Grande quelled concerns by telling fans at her Aug. 3 concert, “The announcement that was made yesterday was not a reactive or impulsive thing. It is something that I had decided to plan, that I had quietly made a long time ago.”
She added, “No matter what noises exist out there, nothing will be able to distort my reality or be more real to me or louder to me as this love that we share.”
Grande’s Eternal Sunshine Tour will conclude on Sept. 1 in London.
