 Ariana Grande handles microphone glitch during Brooklyn show with help from fans and crew


Ariana Grande continued her *Eternal Sunshine Tour* performance in Brooklyn after a microphone issue briefly interrupted her set.


The Grammy winner was performing “Eternal Sunshine” at Barclays Center when her microphone stopped working. Grande calmly signalled to members of her team as they worked to resolve the problem.


While the issue was being fixed, the audience continued singing along, helping her finish the song before her microphone returned.


“Oh, it’s back now!” Grande told the crowd after the equipment was restored.


She then apologised for the interruption and thanked her team for handling the situation.


“It’s back now, so sorry,” she said before turning to her crew and adding, “Thank you so much!”


Grande also took a moment to acknowledge the behind-the-scenes workers managing the technical issue.


“Thank you to our amazing team who’s dealing with these technical difficulties,” she said. “And thank you for your patience.”


After checking that everything was working again, Grande asked the audience, “Okay, we’re back! Should we continue?”


The crowd responded with cheers as members of her crew briefly joined her onstage to make adjustments before she continued the show.


Grande then moved into the next part of her set, performing “Just Like Magic” as the concert continued.
