Grande thanked the audience and called The Eternal Sunshine Tour
one of “most beautiful, extraordinary, experiences” of her life.
The music star confirmed in August that she’d be taking time out
after the conclusion of her live shows, with the final leg being
a 10-date run at London’s O2 Arena.
On stage, Grande has admitted to being emotional about the tour
coming to an end after 41 dates, which also took place in the
U.S. and Canada before the U.K. On Tuesday, she tried to speak
“without sobbing completely,” she said.
“I’ll cherish this experience always. I have the best fans in
the entire world and I always have,” she said.
A representative for Grande told People magazine in August that
the 33-year-old singer “will be taking a step back from
visibility" after the tour.
“She looks forward to finishing the tour and ending it on a high
note, both healthily and happily, and then taking a
much-deserved break from public-facing work and appearances,
which has led to endless, ongoing public scrutiny,” the
statement said.
In a social media post on Monday, ahead of the penultimate
night, Grande warned fans that she had to swap out her trademark
six-inch heeled platform boots after cutting her foot.
She reassured them that she was on the mend, even if she was a
few inches shorter on stage.
While Grande wasn’t in her highest heels, her followers still
were; the audience dressed up in her style with stilettos, cat
ears and ponytails — something the star noticed.
“Thank you for all of your effort and continuing to make this so
special. I have loved every minute of this with you all,” Grande
said.
The concert concludes with Grande summoned back, sci-fi style,
to a spacecraft as she ascends to the mothership in a beam of
light.
It’s not known when she will next be seen on earth, although
Grande’s most recent album “Petal” will certainly be a fixture
at September’s MTV Video Music Awards, where she’s in the
running for artist of the year.
