Ariana Grande’s casting in ‚Wicked‘ wasn’t just up to fate — it was the power of manifestation. Grande has basically been auditioning for this part since she was a child.
Oh, she really is a good witch!
Ariana Grande seems to have more in common with her spell-casting Wicked character than you realize. It may have been more than fate that Grande was so perfectly cast in the 2024 blockbuster movie, because she’s actually been putting it into the universe for decades that she needs to play Glinda. After fans were awed by her pink and popular polish in Wicked, a ton of Grande lore resurfaced highlighting how the singer has basically been auditioning for this part her entire life.
Grande’s connection with Wicked goes all the way back to her childhood, when her mom took her to see the stage show and she got to go back stage to meet the original Glinda, Kristin Chenoweth. Chenoweth shared the photo of her first meeting Grande when she was just a child to celebrate Grande’s casting in Wicked in 2021.
