Watch Becoming... Glinda in full on BBC iPlayer in the UK: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p0klb26f/movies-with-ali-plumb-becoming-glinda For more on how Ariana landed the role of Glinda, and her highlights from the Wicked press tour.
I love watching this Ariana Grande , something about it feels so authentic and alive. I think maybe her passion got lost with the pop star label , I hope she keeps acting, she sure was meant for it alongside her amazing vocal range that she can bring to the big screen
Agreed. She doesn’t annunciate well in her pop songs and it irritates me 😅 also sorry, the nasally voice needs to go (although those are SO funny when she sprinkled them in Popular). She has a beautiful tone - she must use it more often!
One thing about Ariana, She’s ALWAYS a great listener, She’s so very well spoken & respectful when she articulates her words so very well. I can genuinely look at her & tell she is really comfortable & enjoying doing these interviews. I’m so very happy & proud of her. I love you so very much ! ✨🖤 // I really hope & pray she continues to keep acting more because her acting skills is absolutely magnificent & phenomenal. She can most definitely act. Honesty, This is the best, authentic, comforting & incredible interview I’ve have ever truly watched. ✨🖤
I will watch any interview Ali Plumb does. Just brings out the best in everyone and makes people as comfortable as possible. The research and unique angles are always great. This was lovely!
Ali is definitely one of the best celebrity interviewers since the internet became widely available. I'll watch any of his interviews that come across my feed.
The Way Ariana literally inhabits each and every character is nothing short of astonishing, astounding! I swear, @1:44 when Ariana impersonates cynthia, I swear her face transformed *INTO* Cynthia's!
Fantastic interview as always!! Love that she he stayed true to her claim at the beginning of this enormous press tour that she was going to make sure everyone knows that Jonathan Bailey is doing all of the choreography in ‘Dancing Through Life’ himself in basically every interview
the interview was so great and very knowledgeable about the Wicked movie and Ariana’s performance! It was refreshing to see, thank you for putting the time and energy into your conversation with Ari 🩷🩷🩷
Love this movie so much. And one of the best surprises in this was having Ariana Grande as Glinda. There is so much joy in all of this. And not having seen the stage play, the original trailer of 8 months ago sold me on wanting to see this and now having the VOD for this film. Thank you Ariana for this amazing experience♥♥♥
on top of these improvised bits, I've read that she really fought for this movie to stay true to the material for the fans (shutting down the initial modern popification of popular, encouraging jon to change/keep stuff). she really put her soul into this project and its paid off, wicked was spectacular and now she's on her way to that oscar. 🤞ARIANA OSCAR BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS🤞
if you are familiar at all with ariana wicked is everything to her so this project really feels super genuine and honest and all the work she's done is truly impressive! She fully deserves that Oscar!🫧
I like how some people don't know there's literally a play (that is the source of the movie) that will tell you for the most part (98%+) of what will happen in Part 2.
She might be *the* most mindful person that I've ever known anything about, and quite clearly, that is at the very core of why she's so freaking good at everything she does, and is.
She was also very mindfully betraying every female person in her life by sleeping with their husbands and boyfriends and making a song about it where she mocks the women
I think people don't realise ariana was a actress before becoming a pop star i'm so proud of her she was born for this role glinda i'm so glad that's she's healed and happy and glinda took care of her love you ariana 💗
Ariana’s butterfly tattoo has finally returned! She’s covered it up for so long that I thought she got it removed or didn’t like it anymore. Haven’t seen the butterfly tattoo since 2022
love this interview and ariana so much, she has given so much to this movie and to Galinda and we will always support her, Cynthia and Wicked’s success 🩷💚🫧🧹
You ever made a joke about a friend that people take the wrong way and then you kind of freak out, because you absolutely do not want to talk badly in any way about someone you love? That's the face...
Give her the Oscars already. She is absolutely brilliant in the film. My second favourite movie of all time is Wicked Film. I have seen the film 10 times at this point and 4 times in the theater.
@@Unglueck_artthey’re not even nominated in the same category. I think Ariana was very good as Glinda but I don’t think Oscar worthy. I don’t think Cynthia is gonna get it either but she should
Why are they still promoting the movie when it's nearly finished its run in the cinemas? Normally you heavily promote before the film comes out not when it's already left many cinemas. My local cinema isn't even showing it anymore.
I’ve had a weird experience with this movie. The themes of it. Because: I had a friend who I only had for a year. But we were close. Getting really close. But as we discovered we are fo two different minds politically…. Our friendship ended. And at first we talked about This movie and how much we loved it. And how important it was to accept each other. Cut to…. She left me. Now all I can think of seeing this movie is the friend I lost 😔 why can’t we love each other despite our differences.
She left you didn’t because your political beliefs aren’t as important that means you can possibly be A political to be her friend… honestly does politics even make u happy like your friend
People are making a lot out of the “improv” that is really just what actors do when they’re acting??? Ariana definitely improvised some entire lines and moments, but just doing actions while in character that aren’t strictly in the script is just…acting.
Takes one to know. Just cause you're a junk1ie and you're around ur hopeless junk1e family doesn't mean everyone else is. But whatever helps u cope and sleep at night.
@@enternalmoonlight yo he's right it;s not a natural organic way of being, super hyper and super aware of your every move. so it's either that or some anxiety. most actors are very calm when they interview because they have that media training at the very least. the cucumber diet is also not helping. I think some collagen ,vitamin D and some nice hearty meals would help as well
How is any of her features here indicator that she's white? An Arab, indian or latina who has pale skin with bleached hair and brows would make them white?
@enternalmoonlight we all know?!? We're not all 12! I actually thought she was mixed race.. based on her caramel xomplextion! But now, she as white as a ghost and actually looks ill! Thanks for clearing that up though 👍
Lol and people thought she and this movie would bomb.. lol oscar nominated on her first big movie. I know SpongeBob ex wife groupies punching air, they really thought she would be “cancelled” LMFAO 😂
Commenting negatively on a person’s appearance and making judgements when u don’t know them is v weird and unkind. If u don’t have anything nice to say then keep it moving, it’s not hard
@@thatgirltaali Expressing concern for someone's heath is not negativity. You assumed that with your projections. Also, you are not saying anything nice, so you are ignoring your own advice. It's not hard.
@@jameslovell8104expressing "concern" under an interview is going to do so well since ariana is a doll trapped in a box with no interaction with human beings. She's poor af too and can't afford doctors. This is so helpful and would sure get her healthy since you're 100% sure she's unhealthy. Just cause she doesn't have 20 rolls on the wrong places and few clogged arteries like you, doesn't make her unwell. Maybe research on body anatomy and get a grip.
Most stupidest comment over seen to mankind. This is the most professional celebrity interviewer out there. He’s been working for a long time. And an idiot like you comes out of nowhere to say he’s creepy
@SceneByScott Most stupidest comment over seen to mankind. This is the most professional celebrity interviewer out there. He’s been working for a long time. And an idiot like you comes out of nowhere to say he’s creepy
I've seen so many of the cut scenes here on TH-cam I wish we could get a fully fleshed version. I thought Ariana did an amazing job, it is really hard to play "fluffy" and still connect with an audience, these scenes would have cemented her chances at an Oscar I think. Still, im really glad she has finally come to the rest of the world's attention, I hope she does more film work as I think she has amazing comic instincts and timing .. and she could maybe even start a trend for musicals to become more common. Times like they are now, even with a deeper message all that singing and dancing sure does help. Loved this movie very much. I will NOT say how many times I've been to see it --- but it's a lot 🙄♥️🤗 💚🩷💚🩷💚🩷💚🩷💚🩷
I will never not watch an interview as soon as it’s released. I love these beautiful women so so much. These women gave me my emotional support movie. Which I had no idea I needed. I hope they get everything they want and more because they worked their asses off for these roles. 🩷💚🩷💚

Can you tell Ariana Grande she is my favourite singer i hope I can meet you one day I love you Ariana Grande 💕💕

She truly belongs in theatre
She seems to be at her best rn but honestly I miss Blackiana

She started out with acting on Broadway and Nickelodeon, that’s why she’s a natural. Then she became a pop star
@@holychaos5398what a weird thing to say, get off the internet i’m begging
lol her Cynthia impression
Spot on! Zero exaggeration she literally transformed into Cynthia that was insane!
@@esh4165 she's insanely good at imitating people. What a skill
"If there are no further questions, I am... gonna go" is the best way to end an interview

ariana's improvisation is so good that i thought it was actually a part of the script
“Toss-toss, leg!” was like the wicked version of “bend and snap!”
That’s what it reminds me of 😂
You are so right 😊😮❤🎉😊😮🎉😂
These BBC interviews with Ari about Wicked are just the best. Hands down the best.
both of these were perfect cast, i really loved this whole press tour, and i am so excited and happy that we have a second movie coming
Yesss, always my favourite interviewer with the most genuine and original questions.

absolutely love her
“Don’t mention “Holding Space” I mentioned it once but I think I got away with it”
Ariana & Ali, the one interview we were missing❤
5:40 she basically admits that she does take on peoples isms and mirrors subconsciously
Most neurodivergents do
Love Ariana so much ❤
Arina the best ❤❤❤❤

The ending! 🗣️♥️ One of the best interviews I've watched with Ariana 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Stunning, loving, hilarious good witch queen!
the butterfly tat is out! 🥹🩷
QUEEN! 🫶🏼💖✨✨✨✨
yayyyyyyyyyyy ariiiiii and alliiiiiiiiii🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
“A man!” takes me out every time 😂

Cynthia doing promo in the US, Ari over here in the UK...have these girls had a day off yet? They deserve a good pampering. ❤
Ariana is a literal treasure
To married men maybe
@Unglueck_art debunked get over it next
I think people don't realise ariana was a actress before becoming a pop star i'm so proud of her she was born for this role glinda i'm so glad that's she's healed and happy and glinda took care of her love you ariana 💗
It’s not like she acted in movies or anything acclaimed like that. She was on a Nickelodeon show for teens
I feel like she is channeling Cynthia now in interviews 😅 Her posture and sometimes her tone
Ariana’s butterfly tattoo has finally returned! She’s covered it up for so long that I thought she got it removed or didn’t like it anymore. Haven’t seen the butterfly tattoo since 2022
I think Ali liked this film.
Amazing interview, but for me, as a Hungarian, is how Ariana pronounced the Hungarian Vizsla dog breed. Well done! 👏
love this interview and ariana so much, she has given so much to this movie and to Galinda and we will always support her, Cynthia and Wicked’s success 🩷💚🫧🧹
Wow. Glinda still trending AF. Haha.
The darker her hair gets, the more her voice goes back to normal
She is amazing!!
Amazingly mediocre in acting
I love his clothes! That burgundy blazer with the black buttoned up shirt looks great on him. And it must have been fun to interview her.
one last time in the background sounddd !! 😭
this interviewer is very eary...ariana did great filling up the silence when he didnt have anything to add
Ali Plumb appreciation comment!
in ali and ari we trust
What happened to her at 12:03
She’s on drugs
it’s very obviously a bit
You ever made a joke about a friend that people take the wrong way and then you kind of freak out, because you absolutely do not want to talk badly in any way about someone you love? That's the face...
@@ClipsByLaura exactly, she realized it might sound bad, and so she exaggerated her reaction a bit
Drugs start kicking in
Give her the Oscar NOW
Or give it to someone with talent in acting
Yes ❤
Oscars are for actors with longstanding performances and a good track record of high grossing films not for newcomers
4:53 she missed the chance to say "changed for good"
Give her the Oscars already. She is absolutely brilliant in the film. My second favourite movie of all time is Wicked Film. I have seen the film 10 times at this point and 4 times in the theater.
She is absolutely mid in the film. Cynthia overshadowed her massively
are we giving oscars to all newcomers now ? it's her first film
@@SM-ce1uyfirst film?
@@Unglueck_artthey’re not even nominated in the same category. I think Ariana was very good as Glinda but I don’t think Oscar worthy. I don’t think Cynthia is gonna get it either but she should
eu amo "uh... A MAN" kkk
I love ari so so much but has she gone back to her regular voice and not the glinda voice
Not doing Sonic 3 interview is wild 💀😭
I’ve never seen a press tour go on for so long, and I’m just wondering if it will last the whole year.
😍😍😍
Her english accent is perfect.
You must be american
12:03 is she ok??
I Don't Know Why, But I Like To See Your Smile Ariana... - Iyyaka Nastain -
So we’re not going to address 11:59 or? This is concerning
She was joking. Like does comedic bits in between all her stuff.
@enternalmoonlight so why did they cut it? How is hyperventilating funny? I don’t understand that kind of humor but it seemed she was in distress
Leave her alone she’s probably anxious
@@ririschannelxmore like high
She was talking about Cynthia making people cry all the time, so she did a bit like she was gunna cry but "in a good way"
❤❤❤
This wasn't long enough. 😂🫶
❤
And now Sheʼs the Queen of Comedy too
So this isn't the full interview? What about viewers outside the UK 😭💔
Why are they still promoting the movie when it's nearly finished its run in the cinemas? Normally you heavily promote before the film comes out not when it's already left many cinemas. My local cinema isn't even showing it anymore.
She looks and sounds unwell. :(
Is she high?
Been looking like it. Looks drugged a lot

Usually actors stick to the script they're given. That's why people are always gagged whenever there's an improvisation that actually lands.
It’s probably because the characters are so well known from the play. They are laying it on a but thick though lol
ariana sounds so different now its odd
Is it live?
No
She looks like shes about to lose it
She's finally looking a bit healthier. I think she's put on half a pound since the movie. It really helps.
The fake accent is so silly, not fooling anyone
Like 100 interviews after wicked and you’re still here….
Wow this comment section is scary, god forbid anyone brings up that she’s a notorious home wrecker I’ll become a missing person overnight 😂🫢
How'd this become the premier premiere music for videos? Baffling
She is very clearly on drugs
