Ariana Grande Shines at SAG Awards with Enchanting Look

LOS ANGELES, Calif. — Ariana Grande captivated the crowd at the 2025 Screen Actors Guild Awards on Feb. 23, where she was nominated for outstanding performance by a female actor in a supporting role for her portrayal of Glinda in the highly anticipated film, *Wicked*.

Grande donned a stunning custom light pink gown by Loewe that transformed the red carpet into a runway. The strapless design featured a floral bodice with each flower crafted from feathers, creating an eye-catching optical illusion. A video shared on social media showcased the dress as flowers elegantly tumbled down the skirt, trailing into a luxurious train behind her.

To complete her alluring ensemble, Grande styled her hair in a sleek ponytail and adorned herself with exquisite jewelry from Jared Atelier, sparkling under the venue’s bright lights. “I cannot stop crying, to no one’s surprise,” she shared on Instagram following her nomination announcement, highlighting her ongoing emotional journey this awards season.

She is nominated alongside other notable actresses including Monica Barbaro for *A Complete Unknown*, Jamie Lee Curtis for *The Last Showgirl*, Danielle Deadwyler for *The Piano Lesson*, and Zoe Saldaña for *Emilia Pérez*.

In addition to Grande’s individual nomination, her *Wicked* co-stars also received accolades. Cynthia Erivo is among the nominees for outstanding performance by a female actor in a leading role, while the film itself is up for the SAG Award for outstanding performance by a cast in a motion picture and outstanding action performance by a stunt ensemble.

Grande’s journey through the awards season has been remarkable as she strives for her first win this year after being nominated at three prior awards shows in the category. Saldaña took home the trophies at the BAFTAs, Critics Choice Awards, and Golden Globes earlier this season.

Looking ahead, Grande is preparing for her first Oscar nomination as Best Supporting Actress for her role in *Wicked*, with the Academy Awards set for March 2. In a heartfelt post, she expressed gratitude and disbelief at this milestone.

The *Wicked* film adaptation has secured ten Oscar nominations in total, tying for second most this year alongside *The Brutalist*. Grande’s costume choices have consistently echoed her character’s enchanting persona, particularly with her pink-themed gowns throughout the season.

Earlier this season, Grande wore outfits inspired by Glinda, including a gown reminiscent of Glinda’s bubble during her acceptance of the Rising Star award at the Palm Springs International Film Festival on Jan. 3. She honored the character once more at the Golden Globes by sporting a yellow-hued homage to the “yellow brick road.”

While on the red carpet, Grande and Erivo embraced each other’s talents and looked towards their futures. Speaking about their bond, Erivo addressed the transformative journey they experienced together while filming *Wicked*, emphasizing the friendship that flourished through their shared experiences.

Despite the excitement of the awards season, Grande’s romantic relationship with her *Wicked* co-star has also become a topic of media interest. As the couple navigates their careers, their public appearances display a strong connection and mutual support.

The SAG Awards not only highlighted talents across various projects but also offered a platform for actors to celebrate their achievements and express their hopes for the future. As the ceremony concluded, Grande left a lasting impression with her glamorous look and heartfelt acknowledgments of her journey.
