Broadway musicals - unpopular opinion

[vraiblonde]

I can't stand Kristin Chenoweth's voice. All those women with their little baby girl sweetie pie - ick.

I'd be looking forward to seeing "Wicked" when it comes out in theaters because I think Arianna Grande will do those songs justice, BUT....

The woman who plays Elphaba is an ass. Like, a giant ass and race victim.

TLDR/DC;

The official movie poster shows Elphaba looking straight ahead.

A fan redid it to be like the original Broadway poster and posted it on his Instagram.

Race victim actress had a comeapart fit.

Cynthia Erivo blasts a fan-edited 'Wicked' poster as 'wildest, most offensive thing'

The star of the upcoming movie took offense to an edited version of the film's poster in which her eyes were covered.

I hate it when actors do that, act like aholes in public so I can't enjoy their movies because I no longer see their character, all I see is an ahole.



I'll bet she was fun to work with.....

I've seen Wicked 3 times. Twice in NYC with Kristin Chenowith and Indina Menzel and once in Baltimore with a different cast. The Broadway show is awesome. I'll go see the movie and hope for the best.

I was lucky enough to see this cast too in NYC right before it really took off. My high school English/drama teacher managed to take a group of us. Fantastic. I'm looking forward to the movie as well.

But I also think Cynthia Erivo is off her rocker. Fan art is nothing new. EVERYTHING with any fan base has tons of recreated fan art or fanfic or whatever. This graphic designer simply used this as an opportunity to show her own fan base 1. her skills at editing/photoshop and 2. how she'd edit it to look like the original broadway poster. That's. It. She stated from the beginning it was simply an edit, not intended to "make it better" and Erivo needs someone to bring her back down to earth and get a hold on reality.

I'd write into every actors contract that if they post something that's going to hurt ticket sales that they give up their royalties.

What a great school trip!

And I agree with the rest of what you said. These people are nuts and twist everything against themselves. Lighten up Francis!.
