Ariana Grande would love to perform alongside Cynthia Erivo at the Oscars
The 31-year-old pop singer starred alongside Cynthia, 37, in the 'Wicked' film adaptation, and Ariana has now revealed that she would relish the chance to perform with her co-star at the upcoming Academy Awards
21 December 2024
Ariana - who played the role of Glinda in the musical fantasy film - told The Hollywood Reporter: "Of course, we love singing with each other.
"I'll sing together absolutely anywhere anytime, especially in celebration of 'Wicked', and I love her, that's my sister. Say the word and we'll be there."
'Wicked' has already become one of the highest-grossing movies of 2024, and Cynthia recently revealed that she has a "deeply honest relationship" with Ariana.
Speaking about their chemistry, Cynthia told Deadline: "You can't get that if you don't have it off[screen]. I mean, well done if you can, but there's something that feels very tangible when you create that off screen.
"We are friends. We are in a deeply honest relationship outside of the work.
"I talk to her almost every day. She messages me every day and we are always in conversation ... if there's something that I want her ears on or I want her opinion on, I send it to her. If there's something she wants my opinion on, she sends it to me. We are always trying to be aligned."
Cynthia feels that their off-screen relationship was key to their on-screen chemistry.
The actress explained: "If the seeking of alignment and finding each other in the same space means that our voices work together like that, it means that when I'm in the scene for 'Popular' it is funny and I can be alive because I'm there to provide that."
