The pop star announced she was recording "The Wizard and I" as part of the NBC event, "A Very Wicked Halloween: Celebrating 15 Years on Broadway" — just days after the news broke that she and Pete wouldn't be walking down the aisle any time soon.

The pop star, 25, filmed her performance on Tuesday as part of the special, which is set to air later this month. It's meant to honor the Broadway musical Wicked. “Honored to be included in this celebration of 15 years of my favorite musical of all time," she wrote on Instagram. "Wouldn’t miss it for the whole universe." She posted behind the scenes photos from the taping on Instagram.

"Time to say bye bye again to the internet for just a little bit," Ariana wrote. "It’s hard not to bump into news and stuff that I’m not trying to see right now. It’s very sad and we’re all trying very hard to keep going. Love you and thank you for being here always."
