“It was incredible! I was actually backstage at Chicagoand I had to sneak into the stage manager’s office to take a call,” she said THR. “Getting that news was so exciting. I was backstage living my lifelong dream of being on Broadway. And then to get that call and dive into another total dream was incredible. A pinch-my-self moment.”

When asked if she had any advice from Sarah and when she feels pressure, she just wants to be herself, she said.

“I didn’t get any advice. But what’s really cool and crazy is that she (Little Shop of Horrors on Broadway), we almost did something like a swap. (Laughs) And I am actually a little disappointed because I would like to see her in Small store”, Ariana said. “But you know, as a long-time fan of Love Island across the board, watch Sarah kill it as a host, together with Ariel Vandenberg, Sophie Monk, Caroline Flack — the best thing ever, Maya Jamawho is the hottest person in the world – I know every host brings their own twist to the job and to the show. And so I knew from the beginning that I just wanted to be myself because that takes away any pressure of trying to do what everyone else is doing and creating something that can’t be replicated because you’re just being yourself. But I think the excitement on my side is palpable because it’s my favorite show.”

Ariana was also asked if she hopes to return for season seven.

“I don’t know yet, but I hope to host this show until I die… until it never airs again or something,” she replied, laughing.
