Ariana Grande was pictured during a rare appearance in New York on Tuesday after announcing hiatus from fame. 

The singer, 33, showed off her off-duty look wearing a fashion forward fluffy jacket with jeans. 

She completed her look with white heeled ballerina shoes and socks and thick-rimmed glasses and carried a giant cup in hand. 

The Wicked star had her brunette locks styled in her signature up-do and secured in place with a white ribbon and she wore a pair of white gloves. 

Despite her much publicisied time-off from work, Ariana  appeared on a special edition of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Sunday.

She was accompanied by her castmates in the upcoming film Focker-In-Law, Robert De Niro, 83, and Ben Stiller, 60.

The trio sang, O Christmas Tree, with De Niro delivering a booming ending to the bit

Her appearance on the show came after her team said she was taking a step back from the limelight this past summer.

Ariana left her planned West End role in Sunday In The Park with George after wrapping up her musical tour to take a hiatus from the grind.

'Ariana will be taking a step back from visibility after she completes the Eternal Sunshine Tour,' her spokesperson told People in August.

The entertainer was looking forward 'to finishing the tour and ending it on a high note, both healthily and happily, and then taking a much-deserved break from public-facing work and appearances, which has led to endless, ongoing public scrutiny,' her spokesperson said. 

They added: 'This tour has been a beautiful experience for her. She loves her fans and has loved every minute of this tour so much.'

Amid the scrutiny over her health, a source close to the star told the outlet that Grande essentially proved her fitness over the course of her musical tour.

'She performs a very physical show, and there is a lot of athleticism involved,' the source said. 'She performs healthily and successfully at a very high level night after night.'

Ariana is now back in a relationship with her ex-boyfriend Ricky Alvarez.

The pair originally dated from 2015 to 2016 after meeting when Ricky worked as her backing dancer. 

Focker-In-Law is slated for release on November 25.
