“I’m still unpacking the emotional weight of Antonio with my therapist.”
Grande isn’t the only person who has changed for good after the sketch aired.
“They’ve been coming to the premieres, which is insane,” she told Fallon.
But I mean, I really I understand it.
I appreciate it."
“I think I loved it the most because you singing off-key is very rare,” Fallon noted.
It was one of Grande’s favorite sketches, too.
“It was really fun.
It was a bit that we found in the moment,” she explained.
“I pitched it to the writers…
I said, ‘Would it be funnier if it got progressively worse as it went on?'”
