This gesture highlights the growing adoration for Wicked, the Broadway musical turned record-breaking film.
Grande’s thoughtful gift highlights her support for the cast and belief in the film’s collaborative spirit. The pink statuettes, reminiscent of Glinda, symbolize the cast’s bond and celebrate the journey, not just the Oscars outcome.
Wicked made a splash with 10 nominations but only took home two trophies for Best Costume Design and Best Production Design.
Although the singer did not win Best Supporting Actress, she garnered a standing ovation in her opening performance with Cynthia Erivo, performing “Somewhere Over the Rainbow,” “Home,” and “Defying Gravity.”
The actress’s gift to the Wicked cast is a shining example of support and camaraderie within the entertainment industry. It reminds everyone that the value of a project lies not just in the accolades but in the meaningful connections made throughout the journey. If you missed the Oscars, don’t worry—you can watch Wicked and all the memorable moments from the event on Hulu.
