This musical made me doubt Ariana’s ability to play Glinda, but today, more than ever, I give her the flowers she deserves. Her evolution as an actress and the effort she put into becoming this character is simply flawless. I’m beyond excited to see what she has in store as an actress in the future.

I hate the fact they keep musicals locked up in vaults

[@beanii7339]

i dont think this ones locked up

[@amberrose3073]

This one was a special for tv you should be able to find it

[@pbee.njayay444]

Never doubted her ability to play Glinda. I knew she would deliver and then some. She’s got iron pipes

[@sheismymom]

I love Hairspray Live and The Wiz Live I bought both on DVD I hope they do more live tv musicals

White as winter snow!, she looks closer like that for Glinda than here

[@bullsharkTM]

The tan needed to go away lmaoo

[@thescarletwarlock9941]

I think you meant Glinda

[@amayas570]

Believe it or not, she tans like this naturally. You can look up pictures of her as a kid and she looks just as tan as this. (Yes, there are times she’s overdone it with tanning but this is exactly how she naturally tans)

[@bullsharkTM]

@@amayas570 Yes it's because she's Sicillian. However, the character should've had less tan. She could've avoided getting the tan lol

[@MichaelJohnson-vi6eh]

​@@amayas570she's Italian. Natch.

Ariana is talented, but she was badly cast in this role. This musical focuses a lot on race. During this time period Ariana was getting spray tans to appear darker. Even if you want to argue that she naturally turns because she's Italian, there was still discrimination against them. Her being this tan in this role does not make her look passable as someone from English ancestry, as I'm assuming the character is meant to be. It makes me laugh when they describe the character as having skin as white as snow, especially since some of the African-American characters have her same skin tone. Maybe if she looked more like how she does now in wicked it would be ok.

[@MaryZicari-k7n]

her singing is great but she doesn't make a classic dumb penny shes ok but i think shell be a wonderful glinda

[@TTSantiago821]

Someone is mighty tan with super tan tights lol.
