Johnson Wen, the man who grabbed Ariana Grande at Singapore’s “Wicked: For Good” premiere, has now been sentenced to nine days in prison.
The 26-year-old turned viral last week when he breached the barricade at the premiere held at the Universal Studios Singapore to grab Ariana’s shoulder while the singer-actress was walking hand-in-hand with fellow cast members Cynthia Erivo, Michelle Yeoh and Jeff Goldblum.
Security (as well as co-star and good friend Cynthia Erivo) were quick to fight him off, and he was then dragged away from the runway.
It was after the incident that Wen’s social media account was scrutinised by many, showing that he has a history of harassing celebrities, from Katy Perry to The Weeknd.
He had since been found guilty of public nuisance by the Singapore court, especially after it was revealed that he had attempted to intrude on the movie premiere twice.
Wen, who came without representation in court, told the judge that he will not do it again.
