Ariana Grande is reminiscing about her time filming the musical Wicked and has been sharing photos from the wrapped set on social media. She recently posted a silhouette image of herself as Glinda the Good Witch and followed it up with a behind-the-scenes snap of her co-star Cynthia Erivo, who plays Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West. Another photo featured the silhouette of Jonathan Bailey, who portrays Prince Fiyero in the film. Ariana expressed her gratitude for her time filming Wicked and the relationships she formed with her co-stars, including her boyfriend Ethan Slater, who plays Boq in the film.
She thanked the film's director, Jon M. Chu, for his guidance and kindness. Ariana also released her first single since 2021 called "Yes, And?" which appears to address the criticism she received over her relationship with Ethan. The song encourages listeners to reflect on why they feel the need to comment on her personal life. Ariana and Ethan's relationship became public after her breakup with Dalton Gomez, and Ethan had recently ended his marriage. The couple is now reportedly living together in New York City. "Yes, And?" is the lead track from Ariana's upcoming seventh studio album, and Wicked is set to be released in November 2024.
