Cynthia Erivo seems to have such a gentle, wise soul, and she expresses it in her art. She is a moving human.

[@andreadaniel8792]

This is a lovely interview.

[@Fantasy_Dreamer_89]

I'm soooo excited for the wicked movie ❤❤

[@Lizwindsor]

A great interview! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@rashadhartzog6560]

She is so beautiful. I've been a fan since I seen her.

[@nancybarnes4428]

I just LOVE Cynthia Erivo!!! ❤

[@HawthorneHillNaturePreserve]

Yes, Cynthia is a phenomenal artist, but I think what makes her so special is she seems to be such a phenomenal human being! ❤

[@lizlemon8035]

I could listen to Cynthia talk all day. So intelligent, articulate and a lovely accent. I think her poster response was probably more to do with her putting her heart and soul into the character, being very proud about that and her work, then seeing someone wipe her face away so she wasn't recognisable. It would've felt like a slap and she unwisely angry typed her thoughts in the heat of the moment. I'm so excited that she was cast as Elphaba. Her voice is exquisite.

[@gBalldevelopmentllc]

Two phenomenal and beautiful women!

[@oliviaj1443]

She's just so talented, unreal

[@bluepeter128]

lovely interview.

[@CynthiLover08]

SHE IS GLOWING SHE NEEDS TO GIVE ME HER SKINCARE ROUTINE

[@aliciathot]

😂 she's vegan

[@sailingsam3815]

Hope she gets an oscar for this😊

[@donnalthood3102]

She is incredible! How are those nails practical?

[@KyeyuneBatuma]

I pray she gets an oscar for this role ❤❤

[@angelicataylor90]

I will die on the hill of she did not overreact. You literally hear how much work she put into the identity of the character. If she and the artist wanted the remake to look like the original they would have done that. Its not only a dig to Cynthis but the artist who made this version. The problem is not many people know what it means to have intellectual property or what it means when its changed without permission. She absolutely should have been offended not everything is meaningless. 🙄😒 Anyway im excited im going and I cant wait.

[@MsDisneylandlover]

Green is her color

[@marthalisk303]

Those nails would drive me nuts😅 This was a perfect pairing with Cynthia and Ariana.

[@stayyoungandstrong.260]

Oprah needs to do an interview on how much she loves Trump😂

[@AlexGervacio33]

A human emotion? She should be happy people care, and then say call a friend? So it DID make her upset. I’m glad Gale called her out in that. 💯

[@crohniequeenab]

Yeah you know how things you see may make you upset that’s what happened to her. She thought the poster was made how it was meant to be made. If it was to be like the original they would have made it like that. To change their hard work made her upset. She’s allowed to feel that way about her project that took years of hard work. Call her out. No she said she wanted an understanding of why it made her upset 🙄

[@selenascott7166]

Miss Cynthia as a transgender this movie this woman who is green has met so much to me in my life. I remembered discovering wicked in 2003 and I was going through quite a bit. I was hitting my look I was hitting who I was I was hitting a lot of things and wicked has played a very special part in my heart that will always be there the day I got to fly out the first time to see wicked I was living in Palm Springs and I’m boarded to plane in 2015 and went up to San Francisco and saw woman who I fell deeply in love with, and thought she was superb as the green girl her name was Ian Espinoza, and now seeing you play this role and knowing that she’s part of my community touches my heart even more ever since my mother died I have flown myself further into wicket. Nobody could’ve played her. We love you and we thank you so much.❤

[@kwanzahigg9231]

She Absolutely NOT Transgender 🙄 She Does identify as Bi. Grow Up. And stop telling Other People's Business. Who She sleeps with is Not Important. Her God Given TALENT Is Her Drive!! Don't you get tired of leading your life with your Genitals??? For Fck Sake Already!! Her being a BLACK Woman playing this Role on the Big Screen is a Bigger Barrier She has Broken. And here you are talking bout who she sleeps with and Providing FALSE INFORMATION! Give it a BREAK ALREADY!!!

Gail! They dehumanized the actress by taking the eyes away and made the actress different about the lips

WHITE ICONS ❤

[@SoulKnightKing]

I'm still waiting for her to take accountability for her narcissistic ego, attacking fans online, or even her racist tweets towards Black Americans. The literal definition of unbearable

[@pward00]

@SoulKnightKing Don't hold your breath, your opinion of her doesn't matter to her. You're not a variable in the equation of her life and she's not racist against Black Americans you need to research what that word means and I don't think she spending her time thinking about tweets from years ago.

[@YolandaLópez-c3e]

​@@pward00 love how you dont touch up on her narcissistic ways and over reaction to fan made poster lmao

[@kegurui3228]

she never attacked fans and she admitted she overreacted about the poster and the ai video. it came from a place of being protective of elphaba. if you don’t like her don’t watch the movie lol the world will keep spinning

[@OsheyBaddest]

why r u always commenting on her videos. creepy

[@pward00]

@@YolandaLópez-c3e She's not narcissistic and she didn't attack fans, it was like 3 people. She has a right to her opinion just like the fanatic did with the ugly fan art. Let's break this down, the studio hired a photographer and they decided to release an official photo, there were people who decided they didn't like the photo and took it upon themselves to edit the photo the way they wanted then make it public. There are some people who liked the edit others like me and Cynthia didn't and she voiced her opinion. We live in a society where people think that people have to affirm everything they do. Critique and affirmation exist at the same time. If you make something public people can decide whether they like it or not.

[@ryguyca]

She definitely overreacted to the poster that was recreated a true Wicked fan! I don’t like how she downplayed her over the top reaction to it!

[@crohniequeenab]

No they changed how she looked and that’s insulting and she’s allowed to be upset about it. If you want to make a fan edit. Keep it to yourself. She felt the official poster was enough it didn’t need any changes. If they wanted it to look like the original poster from 21 years ago they would have.

[@larynOneka8080]

Stop trying to make this woman happen.

[@KarenTecott]

Careful, your ignorance and/or jealousy might be showing. Her towering talents, philanthropic work, mentoring of younger artists, and intellectual are already happening.

[@crohniequeenab]

Then why are you giving her your attention 😂

[@patrickm8894]

Can they give her a Trump hair piece ?
