Some say it was a Privilege.
she looks weird now.
Did a fantastic job of someone whose base expectation for life is that everything breaks their way
#Back to formula
Aren’t Italians considered white?
Ariana Grande implies the existence of Ariana Venti and Ariana Tall.
I didn’t order a Grande, send her back.
I genuinely had always thought she was black until this film came out.
Both the leads from this movie seem to have lost their minds. It’s like a cult broke out during filming
So brave.
It really did look like a sad imitation.
It’s part of their job description as actors. As long as they look the part and did their research, they can do any role their talent – and body – can fit
In fairness, I have earned new admiration for AG after her portrayal of Glinda the Good Witch
Little known factoid but Ariana Grande actually began her career as a white woman. That only changed for her music career, so it makes sense she changed back for a movie
I said they both look pallid at thanksgiving and all of the women almost murdered me. Something about the anorexic, Botox, etc. look that basic women love.
Why it’s called acting
Such braverism
Ya know what, seems like people rip the shit out of her but I really like Ariana Grande. She was an absolute fucking legend in the wake of the tragic bombing of her concert, handled the whole thing as well as she could. She fucking kills it in this movie too. She’s alright by me 🫡
She is and was always a white Italo-American.
Wasn’t she a white woman in Victorious?
yea it looks like she doesnt get enough sunlight…
Nobody wants to take about the black women playing green…. Not the first but still
I have no idea what Wicked is about, but based on what I’ve seen, it’s about two very different women who find common ground when they realize they have the same GI doctor who just told them both that their esophagus is eroding from all the binge-purging? How close am I?Â
Did they paint her white?
she is italian ?
Sicilians are white? Interesting. [Someone](http://www.bestofsicily.com/genetics.htm) should tell them…
I went to the website for more information on the movie and while I liked what I saw I think I went to the wrong site.
Let’s see how many husbands she will steal now as a white girl.
She looks so unhealthy lately
Ariana needs to eat some meat. She looks awfully anorexic.
Did we forget that’s what she started as?
Isn’t she Italian?
