Pop superstar Ariana Grande experienced a terrifying moment in Paris when she was nearly struck by a speeding car while greeting fans outside an event.
The 32-year-old singer was attending a gala at the Paris Opera when, as seen in videos shared on X (formerly Twitter), a vehicle came dangerously close to hitting her as she crossed the street. In the footage, Grande appears visibly shocked, raising her hand in defense as the car screeches to a halt just inches away.
Despite the scare, the singer maintained her composure and continued with the evening’s events. She stunned in a black floral dress with pink accents, paired with a long black coat featuring bright interior tones and high heels, creating a look that balanced elegance and boldness.
Later that night, Grande changed into a soft pink gown for a private screening of Wicked: For Good, where she smiled and waved to fans from a private taxi, reassuring everyone that she was safe.
The near accident came just days after Grande missed the Wicked premiere in Brazil due to flight complications. On Instagram, she expressed her disappointment, explaining that technical issues with her plane had prevented her from reaching São Paulo.
Fans flooded social media with messages of relief and support, praising the artist’s calmness after the frightening incident and celebrating her resilience. Ariana, known for her professionalism and grace under pressure, once again proved why she remains one of pop’s most admired and beloved stars.
