At the end, Grande enters the frame and gives Feldstein a big hug, telling the camera, “I know I wasn’t in Booksmart , but I love them so much!” Laughing at her unexpected cameo in the on-set get-together, Gisondo and Franco said that while the R.E.M.

One of the monkeys?” “No!” Grande, still in her Glinda-blonde ponytail, replied with a laugh.

The love fest also continues in a new The Hollywood Reporter interview with Gisondo, who said it was “unbelievable” working with Grande. “I’ve grown up watching her become one of the most famous and talented performers in the world,” he told the publication. “She has an operatic vocal range, she’s an incredible performer and dancer and she’s effortlessly funny and charming in this movie. One day on set, after she played some of her unreleased music, I told her, ‘Nobody should be able to do this.’ She works so hard and cares so much about what she’s doing, and she’s such a perfectionist.” Grande’s presence in the Focker promo cycle comes after Billboard confirmed that she’d be involved in the press run, despite her rep’s August announce
