As someone who has always been drawn to the vibrant world of musical theater and its enchanting characters, I find Ariana Grande‘s perspective on Glinda and Elphaba’s relationship in “Wicked” both intriguing and thought-provoking. Having grown up with these beloved characters, it’s fascinating to see a fresh interpretation that delves deeper into their complex emotions.

While I may not have the theatrical expertise of someone who has played either role on stage or screen, I do appreciate a good love story – be it platonic, romantic, or otherwise. Grande’s theory adds an exciting layer to the narrative and opens up possibilities for future interpretations. If her words are true, I can only imagine the captivating chemistry between Glinda and Elphaba in “Wicked 2.”

Now, let me add a bit of humor to this discussion. You know what they say, “Friends are the family we choose,” but if Glinda and Elphie were indeed in love, I wonder if that would make them related according to musical theater logic! After all, they’re both from Oz…and sisters-in-love might be a bit too much even for this enchanted land.

Ariana Grande proposes an alternate interpretation for Elphaba’s effect on Glinda, suggesting that Glinda might be attracted to Elphie and could even be queer. In the latest discussion about Wicked, Grande shared this theory with Variety magazine, stating that she believes Glinda has a deep affection that transcends gender norms. She further suggests that their shared love is a recurring theme in Oz. Grande also hinted at a deeper exploration of their relationship in the sequel, though she described it as “platonic.” However, fans are eagerly anticipating more romantic development, such as a kiss during the song “For Good” in the upcoming movie.
