Your First Listen: Hear Ariana Grande Sing in 'Wicked'
The singer-slash-actor plays Glinda.
Days after the first look of Ariana Grande as Glinda in Wicked, we finally get a glimpse of her singing. Entertainment Tonight shared a snippet of the singer-slash-actor while on set.
In the clip, Grande’s signature high-pitched vocals are heard, almost sounding opera-like. She’s wearing a pink dress and a crown all while holding a wand.
According to an Instagram post that Grande made earlier this month, Wicked, which will be split into two different films, is “halfway” done. The musician also elaborated on how playing Glinda has been a dream come true. She wrote, “To be here in Oz where every day is a life-changing one… To be feeling, learning and growing so much at such a disarming speed … To feel so much love around me, to begin each day before the sun is up and to end after it sets … To hold my brilliant twin flame/sister Cynthia [Ervio]‘s beautiful, green hands every day… To work in the safest, most beautiful and loving, biggest-yet-most-intimate/tiny-feeling spaces… To be led by the most thoughtful, brilliant, compassionate and warmest possible director on this planet, my other Ozian best friend ever Jon [M. Chu]… To be transforming and healing parts of me that I never knew needed it. Or maybe did.”
Wicked Part 1 is slated to premiere on Thanksgiving, November 27, 2024. Check out the footage of Ariana Grande on set below.
