“Brazil, I can’t believe this is happening and I’m so devastated to send this message. A few hours ago, my team and I had to disembark from our flight so the plane could undergo maintenance due to problems and it won’t fly until 11 am, which means I won’t be there in time for the premiere of Wicked 2 in São Paulo”he wrote.
“My team and Universal [Pictures] They tried everything to solve the problem, we looked for other flights, early in the morning, in the morning, connections, commercial and even private flights and absolutely nothing was available or would be possible to take us on time. Even when trying a private option, there is a necessary permission for the flight to take place and it takes time to obtain”he continued, explaining.

Please give my castmates all the love I wish I could be sharing with you and have the most beautiful celebration possible. And again, I’m truly sorry.”concluded Ariana Grande.
