In November 2024, a series of TikTok posts alleged that singer and actress Ariana Grande was diagnosed with cancer (with some posts suggesting it was specifically lung cancer) while filming the movie adaptation of the Broadway musical "Wicked.

When child actress turned pop-star Ariana Grande was cast in the role of 'Glinda the Good' in the movie adaptation of Wicked, many fans of Broadway original deemed the choice rather controversial.

Ariana Grande turned a "Wicked" screening into a family affair. The star of the production took to Instagram on Monday to share that she flew to her hometown theater in Boca Raton, Florida, to see her new film with her grandmother, Marjorie "Nonna" Grande.

Wicked composer Stephen Schwartz has revealed that Ariana Grande refused to make a suggested change to a classic song.

As the motion picture version of “Wicked” continues to have its moment, a soundbite from the movie has gone viral. During the scene Ariana Grande sings “Popular” with her co-star Cynthia Erivo, Grande sings, “Did they have brains or knowledge? Don’t make me laugh. They were…” After Erivo answers, “Popular?” Grande screams, “Right!”

Ariana Grande, who plays Glinda the Good Witch in 2024's Wicked, has left fans confused by a hand tattoo she had inked as a tribute to her year-long dedication to the project
