Grande explained that the experience itself is \u201cfun,\u201d \u201cnice\u201d and \u201cwonderful,\u201d saying that she received a tap on her hip when each side of her body is secured before she takes flight.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cI like to get involved emotionally,\u201d Grande explains, referring to her participation in the melodramatics that are her bits during the show. \u201cIt helps me enjoy [the tour] actually. I actually convince myself that I\u2019m actually going somewhere.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tDuring a test flight, Grande said she can look around and think, \u201cOh, this is something,\u201d but once the song begins and the music consumes her, the feeling changes. \u201cIt\u2019s space, and it\u2019s real,\u201d she giggles.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe singer said that being physically involved in the tour\u2019s theatrics has become an important part of her experience on the road, particularly because of the emotional connection she feels while performing. That connection extends to Grande\u2019s relationship with her audience, and Vosk praises her fans in the segment as \u201csome of the best fans in the universe.\u201d Grande agreed, adding that the love between herself and her fans is mutual.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe Eternal Sunshine era has given Grande an opportunity to experience the songs and performances from an entirely different place, with the pop star emphasizing how much she is enjoying being onstage and connecting with her fans. While the conversation touched on the more emotional aspects of touring, Grande kept things light with a joke about her previous tour: This time around, she\u2019s also wearing contact lenses, meaning she can actually see the audience from the stage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe interview occurs during one of Grande\u2019s stops of the Eternal Sunshine tour at Barclay\u2019s Center in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/t\/new-york\/\" id=\"auto-tag_new-york\" data-tag=\"new-york\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">New York<\/a>.
