Unexpected moment between Wicked stars Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo caught at Sydney premiere

Wicked fans lined the streets of Sydney on Sunday night to catch a glimpse of the film's leading ladies, Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, and their co-stars Jonathan Bailey, Jeff Goldblum, Ethan Slater, and Marissa Bode as they attended the Australian premiere. Ariana and Cynthia stunned fans with their outfits, which were very Glinda and Elphaba, with the 'We Can't Be Friends' singer wearing a gorgeous Vivienne Westwood pale pink gown with a full skirt and puffy sleeves and the Tony award-winner rocking a custom black bustier gown by Louis Vuitton.

Ariana paid homage to the outfit worn by Glinda actress Billie Burke in the 1939 Wizard of Oz film. She and Cynthia also wore matching chokers, Ariana wearing a butterfly and Cynthia wearing a lion. The pair were inseparable as they walked the carpet, holding hands and enjoying their big moment together.
