Ariana Grande Weighs in on Cynthia Erivo’s Criticism of Fan-Edited ‘Wicked’ Posters and NSFW Meme: ‘I Find AI So Conflicting and Troublesome Sometimes’ (EXCLUSIVE)


Ariana Grande is reacting to her “Wicked” co-star Cynthia Erivo’s recent criticisms of fan-edited “Wicked” posters and AI-generated memes.

“I think it’s very complicated because I find AI so conflicting and troublesome sometimes, but I think it’s just kind of such a massive adjustment period,” Grande told me exclusively at the Academy Museum Gala Saturday in Los Angeles. Universal and director Jon M. Chu have adapted the “Wicked” Broadway musical into a two-part movie, the first of which arrives in theaters in November. In addition to Erivo and Grande, the film’s supporting cast includes Michelle Yeoh, Jonathan Bailey, Jeff Goldblum and Bowen Yang.
