Ariana Grande Revisits Moon-Landing Remarks in Vanity Fair Polygraph, Says She Wants to Move On

The new segment with Bowen Yang reframes last year’s viral moment as light promotion while she redirects attention to concerns on Earth.

Overview

  • Hooked up to a lie detector for Vanity Fair, Grande fielded fresh questions from Wicked: For Good co-star Bowen Yang about her 2024 moon-landing comments.
  • She responded that she wants to move past the topic and stressed that she cares more about urgent issues on Earth than revisiting the debate.
  • Asked whether Katy Perry and Gayle King went to the moon, she said they did not and described their Blue Origin trips as brief flights above Earth.
  • Grande said she would not sing in space and would skip a spaceflight, noting she prefers to stay on the ground despite liking space.
  • The exchange mixed promotion with humor, including callbacks to a past SNL kiss, as the Wicked: For Good release approaches on Nov. 21.
