The Question Ariana Grande Asked Kristin Chenoweth After “Wicked” Premiere
“Are you proud of me?”
Ariana Grande met Kristin Chenoweth in her dressing room when she was just 10 years old when she knew she wanted to play the same role of Glinda in “Wicked.” And in the summer of 2021, she began auditioning for the movie role and eventually got it.
So did Ariana make Kristin proud when she reprised the Broadway role for film? Absolutely.
Peep the video from The Kelly Clarkson Show above where Kristin Chenoweth tells the story of seeing the movie premiere with Ariana Grande.
“Wicked” is out in theaters on Friday, November 22 where Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo sang live instead of lip-syncing during filming. Making the movie has rekindled Ari’s love for theater and may have shifted her focus back to acting.
