"Jon M Chu's version of the stage musical - which itself was based on Gregory Maguire's revisionist Wizard of Oz novel - stars Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba, who becomes known as the Wicked Witch of the West, and Ariana Grande as Galinda, later Glinda, the Good Witch. When the first part of the two-film adaption was released in November 2024 it smashed box office records and tracks from the movie rocketed up the music charts."
"The new image, posted by entertainment news account Pop Base on X, shows Grande sitting on an uncovered mattress - possibly an early design of Glinda's bed - and reading what could be a script whilst wearing a pair of high heels, straight leg jeans and a pink Balenciaga hoodie with the words 'Gay Pride' printed on the front. "Ariana Grande sporting a gay pride hoodie while rehearsing for her role as Glinda in 'Wicked.'," the post was captioned."
A leaked on-set photo shows Ariana Grande seated on an uncovered mattress in rehearsal attire, wearing a pink Balenciaga hoodie printed with 'Gay Pride.' The image was posted by entertainment account Pop Base on X and includes a caption noting Grande rehearsing for her role as Glinda. Grande previously said that on the first day of rehearsals she and Cynthia Erivo both wore Balenciaga hoodies, hers pink reading 'gay' while Erivo's was black reading Balenciaga. Fans interpreted the hoodie as evidence of Glinda's potential queerness, and shipper communities reacted enthusiastically ahead of Part Two's release.
