Cynthia Erivo Says People ‘Don’t Realize’ How ‘Brilliant’ Ariana Grande Is: ‘She’s Got the Chops’


Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo praised each other's talent in a new interview ahead of 'Wicked.' See what they said.

The film’s first trailer aired during the 2024 Super Bowl broadcast, and Vanity Fair shared several new photos of the cast — which also includes Ethan Slater, Jonathan Bailey, Michelle Yeoh and Jeff Goldblum — in costume Thursday. The Victorious alum marveled at how her counterpart was able to belt out the musical’s famously difficult numbers even though she “had a harness pulling and pushing and yanking and tugging on every nook and cranny that there is.” Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande speak onstage during the 96th Annual Academy Awards at Dolby Theatre on March 10, 2024 in Hollywood, Calif.
