Ariana Grande Wicked Premiere Sydney Pink Dress

Ariana Grande is set to make her mark in the highly anticipated film adaptation of the hit Broadway musical ‘Wicked,’ directed by Jon M. Chu. Grande will play the role of Galinda Upland, the young witch who later becomes the Good Witch of the North. This role is significant for Grande, as it marks her first leading role in a major feature film, despite her extensive experience in music and television, including her stint as a coach on ‘The Voice‘.

At the recent premiere of ‘Wicked’ in Sydney, Australia, Grande embodied her character with a stunning blush pink ballgown from Vivienne Westwood Couture. The gown, complete with layers of pink and peach tulle and decorated with pink rhinestone starburst details, closely resembled the costume she wears as Galinda in the film. She accessorized with Lorraine Schwartz jewelry, including a butterfly-shaped choker and diamond earrings, and styled her hair in a half-up, half-down look.

Grande’s portrayal of Galinda is expected to bring a fresh perspective to the character, who is known for her popularity and wealth in the story. Despite some initial reservations from fans about her casting, Grande has expressed her understanding and is committed to doing justice to the role. In ‘Wicked,’ Galinda forms an unlikely friendship with Elphaba (played by Cynthia Erivo), which has profound implications for the narrative.

The film adaptation of ‘Wicked’ promises to delve into the origins of the witches before the events of ‘The Wizard of Oz,’ offering a more complex and nuanced view of the characters. Grande’s performance, alongside Erivo’s as Elphaba, is highly anticipated and is expected to bring the magical world of Oz to life in a new and captivating way.
