Oh, So This Is How Ariana Grande Hurt Her Hand With James Corden

Over the summer, in the lead-up to her Sweetener album drop, Ariana Grande hopped into James Corden's SUV and belted out some of her top hits for Carpool Karaoke. During that video, Ari's left hand was conspicuously bandaged up, as if trim injured it. She acknowledged this on Twitter, also, without providing the entire explanation.


Well, folks, right now we have the whole story. She fell down attempting to run away from a wriggling faceless man in a spooky escape room. In the event you go to the tape — which Corden's Late Late Show ran Tuesday night (October 30) just in time for Halloween — you visualize it right at the end. It looks painful!


To her credit, Ari mentioned she loved escape rooms and had done hundreds of these. What she wasn't expecting, though, was a near pitch-black experience that played out more like a twisted nightmare than anything resembling a fun afternoon order outing.


Soon after a number of pretty intense scares (mostly associated with people jumping out of random corners), the pair made their way to the final room, where they had to accomplish a puzzle and find their way out. That's as soon as the demon guy (??) Crawled out of a hole in the ground and started terrorizing them. And that's whenever Ari slipped and fell on her hand.


By the end, she's bandaged up and willing to move on from the ordeal. Truthful to God, I'm not gonna lie, don't I look kinda hard?" She asked Corden, who agreed. Ari then recommended her final assessment of the encounter: "That's not an escape room. That's one of the seven gates to hell." Presumably, she filmed her Carpool Karaoke segment directly soon after this, so props to her for keeping it together!
