Ariana Grande Calls Out Official “Wicked” Film Account for Posting Wrong Lyrics to Her Song 'Popular'
The official Wicked film account on Instagram teased Grande's version of Galinda/Glinda's well-known song "Popular" in a lyric video
Have the lyrics to Wicked changed for good? The answer is no, according to Ariana Grande.
On Nov. 13, the official Wicked film account on Instagram teased Grande's version of Galinda/Glinda's well-known song "Popular" in a video featuring lyrics and clips from the scene in the upcoming musical film. However, the star then left a comment calling out the account for apparently sharing an incorrect lyric.
In the video, Grande's character sings the song to costar Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba, and the lyrics read: "Popular, you're gonna be popular / I'll teach you the proper poise when you talk to boys / Little ways to flirt and flounce, ooh!"
The "7 Rings" singer then took to the comments section with a correction. "it’s 'ploys' !!!!!! i love you @wickedmovie," she wrote, referencing the "poise" lyric from the clip.

In a recent interview with PEOPLE, Kristin Chenoweth — who originated the role of Galinda/Glinda on Broadway — said she “can’t wait” for the world to see Grande in the role.
"I couldn’t be more excited for her, and I can’t wait for the world to see what I know, which is how funny she is," she said. "She’s wickedly funny, a fantastic actor and she’s going to get the opportunity to show it in this part."
Chenoweth, 56, also revealed the advice she gave Grande. "I told her, ‘You need to do your version of Glinda and I’m giving you permission. And that’s the only way I’ve helped her," she explained. "I let go of the reins."
