Ariana Grande reveals she was called out by her mother after checking her phone during Wicked screening
Grande stars in the musical film and a debate has sprung over whether or not it's appropriate for movie goers to sing out out loud in theatres amid the film's release.
During an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, while discussing how many times she has seen Wicked, Grande, 31, revealed she was admonished by Joan after she snuck a peek at her phone while watching the movie with her family, including grandmother in Florida. A spokesperson for AMC also told American newspaper IndyStar that while this has always been the theatre's 'long-standing policy', they wanted to reiterate the rules because of the widespread popularity of songs such as Defying Gravity and What is this Feeling. 'The WICKED preshow spot incorporates the themes of the film as a fun, engaging reminder to moviegoers to not disrupt the experience for those around them as they enjoy the show,' AMC's official statement to the publication read.
