Wicked is a masterpiece. It was as if The Wizard of Oz and Hamilton had a movie baby. Absolutely spectacular. I cannot wait for Part 2. This will win MANY Oscar’s. Cynthia Erivo, Ariana, Grande, Jon Chu, Paul Tazewell… all Oscars. Also editing, special effects and more. Stunning film.

I have 99 mutual with this guy… he is a creeper. Been in my DMs. Look at his replies. That’s all he seems to want. I blocked him and wanted to share. Stay safe, ladies.
