Over the weekend, Ariana DeBose hosted the Tony Awards — and she got everyone involved in the show!

During the awards ceremony, Ariana gave several incredible performances, but perhaps the best of all was when she serenaded the audience.

She got up close and personal with several famous faces in the crowd, including a hilarious moment with Andrew Garfield.

While poking fun at Broadway performers who interact with audience members, Ariana got Andrew in on the fun.

"I am close to you, oh so close to you / I am touching you / there's not a lot that you can do," Ariana sang while reaching out to poke Andrew's face.

She didn't stop there, though — she proceeded to sit right in Andrew's lap as he wrapped his arms around her.

"I'm sitting on you / 'cause what they say is true / 'cause there is no escaping us in the audience!" she sang as Andrew laughed.

Thankfully, it doesn't seem like Andrew minded that he was included in the act at all — and I think the internet is pretty grateful for the adorable moment captured on camera:
The internet: "Andrew Garfield couldn't possibly be any cuter!" @ArianaDeBose: "Hold my mic."
