Ariana Grande says it’s “normal” for her voice to change

ArianaGrande uses her voice to express her opinion.

In an interview with Evan Ross Katz released on Tuesday, July 9, Grande again defended her change in tone during a recent interview on the podcast “Podcrushed” in June. In a clip that went viral on social media, the singer appeared to switch from a low register to a higher one mid-conversation.

“I think it’s normal for certain conversations to be different in tone,” Grande told Katz for his newsletter Shut Up Evan. “When I’m very animated, I sound more animated. When I’m more serious, I sound more serious. I’m not the same all the time – nobody is!”

Grande, 31, also reiterated her comment from last month that she was changing her intonation to “preserve the health of her voice.”

The singer of “Yes, And?” also pointed out that she will play the role of Glinda in the upcoming Evil The film adaptation took two years, which also resulted in changes in her voice.

“Another thing that is very real is that I’ve just been playing a character every day for a long time and training my voice for different things, long before I left for London,” she said.

“The voice is in the body. It’s an instrument and muscle memory is a real thing. If I use and lose mannerisms or changes in tone that I’ve trained myself to do every day for two years, that’s a very normal thing,” she continued.

Grande further pointed out that her obvious voice change has attracted attention compared to male actors who put on accents for film roles.

“With male actors, you see that people always say afterwards, ‘Oh, wow! How dedicated he is to his craft. That transformation! He’s a brilliant actor,'” the star said. “And if, God forbid, I sneeze like Glinda or make an accent like her, then I’m crazy and ‘someone should check on her.'”

After almost 10 years in development, the long-awaited film adaptation of the Broadway musical “Wicked” is finally on the way. The film version of the musical, which has been a fixture on the theater scene since its Broadway debut in 2004, has been in development since 2012. “Wicked” is based on Gregory Maguire’s 1995 novel “Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of (…)”.

“After I made that comment (about changing my voice), I started thinking about how this is normal, and not just normal, but I had a job to do,” Grande continued.

She concluded by saying, “It’s weird to be under a microscope like that, and sometimes people don’t really know what it’s like, so it’s the weirdest thing. We all do it. We all get used to it, and we all have different modes.”

Grande had already addressed speculation about a change in her vocal range in conversations on TikTok in June.

“I intentionally change my vocal pitch (high/low) often depending on how much I sing,” the singer commented under a clip from her “Podcrushed” interview, which one user captioned “The voice change??”

“I’ve always done it this way, BYE,” Grande added.
