Both Chenoweth and Grande have suggested that their character Glinda may have some 'closeted' aspects, reflecting on the character's complexities.

Kristin Chenoweth, who originated the role of Glinda in the Broadway production of 'Wicked' in 2003, recently responded to Ariana Grande's remark about Glinda being 'a little in the closet.'

Grande's comment came during an interview with Gay Times, which prompted Chenoweth to express her agreement on an E News Instagram post, recalling her own thoughts on Glinda's sexuality.

In the same interview, Grande and her co-star Cynthia Erivo discussed their characters' sexualities, emphasizing the depth of their relationship.

Erivo described Elphaba as loving and adaptable, highlighting the strong bond she shares with Glinda, while Grande referred to their relationship as a 'true love' that transcends sexuality.

The film adaptation of 'Wicked,' directed by Jon M. Chu, features a star-studded cast including Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, and Michelle Yeoh.

Currently, 'Wicked' is being released in two parts, with the first installment now in theaters.

The film is projected to gross over $120 million in its opening weekend and has received positive reviews from both audiences and critics.

Merchandise from the 'Wicked' film has quickly gained popularity, with items being resold on eBay for high prices shortly after their initial sale.

The storyline of 'Wicked' explores the friendship between Elphaba and Glinda, revealing how their diverging paths led Elphaba to become the Wicked Witch of the West.

Kristin Chenoweth earned a Tony nomination for her performance as Glinda, while Idina Menzel, who played Elphaba alongside her, won the Tony Award for her role.
