Ariana Grande shines on the black carpet in a pink-white gown, nominated for Best Supporting Actress for 'Wicked: For Good' at the Critics Choice Awards 2026.

"It's been such an incredible ride and an incredible experience. - Ariana Grande"

Los Angeles, January 5

The Critics Choice Awards 2026 ceremony has finally begun, and with it, several stars have been arriving at the event in style.

Ariana Grande grabbed attention on Sunday as she walked the black carpet in Santa Monica.

Grande, who has received a Critics Choice Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress for her role in 'Wicked: For Good', looked gorgeous as she attended the ceremony wearing a pink and white full-length dress.

The 32-year-old actress is nominated in the Best Supporting Actress category along with Elle Fanning, Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas, Amy Madigan, Wunmi Mosaku, and Teyana Taylor. The nomination comes as the Wicked cast prepares to close a chapter that began nearly five years ago.

Speaking at the New York City premiere of the sequel earlier, Ariana spoke about her journey with the film and the people she worked with. She shared how meaningful the experience has been for her and expressed her feelings about working closely with her co-stars and the creative team.

"It's been such an incredible ride and an incredible experience," Ariana told E! News at the New York City premiere for the musical's sequel in November. "To create with people we love so much and respect so much creatively, but also who just have such great hearts."

According to E! News, the Critics Choice Awards are being hosted by Chelsea Handler, who is returning as host for the fourth year in a row. This year, the Critics Choice Association has added four new categories, including Best Variety Series, Stunt Design, Casting or Ensemble, and Sound.

The film Sinners leads the nominations with 17 nods, followed by One Battle After Another with 14 nominations. Hamnet and Frankenstein have received 11 nominations each.

The 31st Critics Choice Awards are being held at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica and will air live on E! and USA Network from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. ET and PT. The full list of film and television winners will be announced during the ceremony.

Good for her, but honestly, I wish our Indian award shows had this level of global recognition and glamour. Our actors work just as hard.

The dress is beautiful, but I'm more interested in the new categories like Stunt Design. That's a great addition—so much hard work goes into those sequences that often goes unnoticed.

Always nice to see a bit of Hollywood glamour. My daughter is a huge fan and will be watching for sure. The black carpet is a cool change from the usual red.

Respectfully, while I appreciate the fashion and celebration of cinema, I sometimes feel these Western award articles get more coverage here than our own National Awards. Our film industry deserves that spotlight too.

Her journey with Wicked has been so long! Nearly five years. It's nice to see her acknowledging her co-stars and team. That's what true success looks like, not just the award. All the best to her! 🤞
