We're not crying, you're crying! (Just kidding, we are bawling our eyes out over here). Ariana Grande flew down to her hometown, Boca Raton, Florida, to take her sweet "Nonna" to see her as Glinda in Wicked, and the video will make you weep.
In her Instagram stories, Ari shared that she flew to Boca to watch the movie "at the movie theater she grew up going to every weekend" with her grandmother, brother Frankie Grande, and boyfriend/Wicked castmate Ethan Slater. The singer/actress also shared a video of herself, holding her 99-year-old smiling Nonna's hand while watching the movie in the dark movie theater — the scene where she sings "Popular" to be exact.
See the adorable video below.
Wicked just recently hit theaters, and after the film's release, Grande wrote a heartfelt message to fans, thanking them for their support over the years.
In her message, which was posted to her Instagram stories, she wrote, "I'm feeling incredibly emotional today (who's surprised?) and I wanted to just thank you from the bottom of my heart. Often when we meet in in person, you tell me that you've grown up with me or about the impact that my work has had on your life, but I feel like I don't really get the chance to tell you enough about the impact that you've had on mine."
Grande continued to express her gratitude for her fans' support over the years, explaining, "You have held my hand and helped mend my heart time and time again over the past ten years and I would never be here without you. I mean that in every way you can interpret it."
