Ariana Grande: The Pop Princess Enchanted by Broadway
You might know her from her chart-topping hits like "Thank U, Next" and "7 Rings," but did you know that Ariana Grande has a deep love for Broadway?
Ariana has been vocal about her admiration for the theatre, even calling it her "first love." She made her Broadway debut in 2012, playing the lead role of Cat Valentine in the musical adaptation of 13. Since then, she's been itching to return to the stage, and we can't blame her. With her incredible vocals and acting chops, it's only a matter of time before we see her in another Broadway show.
Cynthia Erivo: The Broadway Queen Conquering Hollywood
Cynthia Erivo, on the other hand, is a Broadway veteran who's taken the world by storm with her powerhouse performances.
Erivo burst onto the scene in 2015 with her breakout role as Celie in The Color Purple, earning a Tony Award for her stunning performance. She followed that up with another Tony-winning performance as Eliza Hamilton in Hamilton. Now, she's making waves in Hollywood, with roles in films like Harriet and Bad Times at the El Royale. But, like Ariana, Cynthia's heart belongs to Broadway.
The Wicked Reunion: A Match Made in Broadway Heaven
So, what's this about a Wicked reunion, you ask? Well, guys, let us paint you a picture.
In 2018, Ariana Grande tweeted about her desire to play Elphaba in a Wicked movie adaptation. Fans went wild, and for good reason. Ariana's powerful vocals and dramatic flair would make her an incredible Glinda. But, who would play her counterpart, Elphaba? Enter Cynthia Erivo.
Cynthia, who played Elphaba in a 2019 concert production of Wicked, has the perfect mix of power, vulnerability, and sass to bring the iconic green witch to life. A Grande-Erivo Wicked reunion would be nothing short of magical.
