An Australian man, Johnson Wen, 26, has been sentenced to nine days in jail by a Singapore court for causing a public nuisance by grabbing Hollywood star Ariana Grande at the Asia premiere of ‘Wicked: For Good’ last Thursday. Videos circulating on social media captured Wen leaping over barriers, rushing towards Grande, and grabbing her shoulders while jumping up and down, leaving the singer visibly shocked. The incident has sparked widespread outrage in Singapore, with many calling for Wen’s arrest and deportation. Grande, who has previously spoken about her struggles with post-traumatic stress disorder following the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing, has not publicly commented on the incident. During the trial, it was revealed that Wen had attempted to intrude on the premiere twice. After the initial grab, Grande’s co-star Cynthia Erivo forcibly removed Wen, and security staff escorted him out. However, Wen made a second attempt to breach the barriers, leading to his detention by security. Wen later posted videos of the incident on his social media accounts, thanking Grande and claiming he was ‘free.’ Singapore police arrested him the following day, and he pleaded guilty to the charges. Prosecutors argued for a week’s jail term, citing Wen’s history of disrupting concerts and sporting events to gain online popularity. Wen, who was unrepresented in court, assured the judge he would ‘not do it again.’ Under Singapore’s public nuisance laws, Wen could have faced up to three months in jail, a fine of up to S$2,000, or both. Meanwhile, Grande has continued her public appearances in Los Angeles, while Erivo subtly referenced the incident in a recent statement about their relationship during the film’s production.
