Ariana Grande implores Disney to keep 'iconic' Tower of Terror ride intact amid fears of replacement
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Ariana Grande strongly appealed to Disney to keep their Twilight Zone Tower of Terror ride intact.
During her appearance on the latest episode of Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers’ podcast ‘Las Culturistas’ suggested Disney not to re-theme the Florida version of the popular ride to Marvel’s 'Guardians of the Galaxy' as they did at Disneyland resort in California.
Ariana Grande reasons why Disney should keep Tower of Terror
Ariana Grande said, "I want to speak on the Tower of Terror because I love and respect the Guardians of the Galaxy, of course I do. I think it's a beautiful thing, it's great, it's impressive, it's amazing."
"I'm a big Baby Groot person. I don't remember much about her, but I love her," the 'God is a Woman' singer added.
Grande referred to Disneyland's makeover of the classic drop tower attraction for which Disney got rid of the original ride's vintage Hollywood aesthetic, and introduced Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: Breakout! back in 2017, per Entertainment Weekly.
Earlier, Mariah Carey also voiced a similar sentiment in October, "It's real desperation to protect and preserve what is the Tower of Terror," she stressed after hosts of the podcast told the singer about an accident during their ride.
Ariana Grande's open letter to Disney
Ariana Grande, during her podcast session, also read an open letter to Disney urging them to keep the Tower of Terror ride as it is.
"Perhaps this message comes prematurely, but I would be remiss if I did not reach out with a potential matter of grave concern," she began.
"In the wake of the most recent alterations that have befallen your historic park in California — yes, I'm referring to the calamitous loss/makeover of the Tower of Terror ride here — I humbly implore you to not follow suit," Grande read.
The '7 Rings' singer further added, "Please allow the iconic and tremendous Tower of Terror to stand tall, permanently in the name of historical preservation, spooky honor, and good, old-fashioned fun. I hope that you'll consider this humble plea from a passionate fan."
Grande's upcoming flick 'Wicked' will hit theaters on November 22.
