Ariana Grande isn’t letting the Tower of Terror go down without a fight.
On the latest episode of the Las Culturistas podcast — which featured Mariah Carey as a guest — host Bowen Yang revealed that his good friend and Wicked co-star has plans in place if Disney World ever closes down the iconic ride at its resort in Orlando, Florida. “You and Ariana Grande have the same feeling about Tower of Terror,” the comedian began after Mimi said that the haunted hotel-themed exhibit was “truly a classic.”
“She has written an entire Notes app statement, a petition basically, to Disney that she has saved,” Yang continued of Grande. “She is like, ‘If you do anything to Tower of Terror in Orlando…’”
“There will be a revolt,” finished co-host Matt Rogers.

Though Disney hasn’t indicated that Orlando’s Tower of Terror is in any danger of closing, the same ride at the company’s Los Angeles amusement park was shuttered in January 2017 and soon replaced with a Guardians of the Galaxy attraction. Just a couple months before that, Grande rode the Disneyland Tower of Terror with her mom, frequent collaborator Victoria Monét, then-boyfriend Mac Miller and more friends, as captured in photos posted online.
Elsewhere in the Las Culturistas episode, Yang recalled hanging out with Ari the day of the 2024 Grammys, where Carey presented Miley Cyrus with best pop solo performance for “Flowers.” “[Grande] was telling me — at the time, it was not official — she was like, ‘Mariah’s gonna be on the “Yes, And?” remix,’” the Saturday Night Live cast member shared. “I was like, ‘Oh my God, that’s going to be such a gag.’”
“I just remember it being such a nice moment where everyone in the room was so happy for you,” Yang continued of watching the Grammys with Grande as Cyrus fangirled over Carey.
“It really was a nice moment, even all the history we have with the Grammys,” Carey added pointedly, laughing.
