Kristin Chenoweth<\/a> has agreed with Ariana Grande’s assessment that ‘Wicked’s Glinda “might be a little in the closet”.<\/p>\n

Kristin Chenoweth agrees with Ariana Grande<\/p>\n

The 56-year-old actress – who originated the role when it first opened on New York’s Broadway in 2003 – admitted she had also felt her alter ego had feelings stronger than friendship for fellow witch Elphaba.<\/p>\n

Commenting on E! News’ Instagram post about Ariana’s comments, Kristin wrote: “I thought so too way back when\u2026.” <\/p>\n

The ‘Thank U, Next’ hitmaker had made her comments as she and co-star Cynthia Erivo<\/a> – who plays Elphaba in the new big screen blockbuster – had reflected on the “unbreakable bond” and why some fans have pushed for them to be seen as a romantic pairing because they recognise the “true love” between them.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Gay Times, Cynthia, 37, said: “I think Elphie, she goes wherever the wind blows.<\/p>\n

\n“I think she loves Glinda. I think she loves love. And I don’t think there’s anything wrong with celebrating the deep connection that both of them have.<\/p>\n

\n“They do have a real relationship. It is true love, which is probably why people are shipping it, you know? Because what they build with each other is an unbreakable bond and love.”<\/p>\n

\nAriana added: “And trust and truth. Just such a safe space for one another, which is what all relationships should be, whether it’s romantic or platonic… Glinda might be a little in the closet. You never know! Give it a little more time.”<\/p>\n

\nBut the 31-year-old star believes the relationship between the witches “transcends sexuality”.<\/p>\n

\nShe added: “I mean, it is just a true love, and I think that transcends sexuality.<\/p>\n

\n“It’s just kind of a deep safety within each other. And that’s why [fans] probably why they ship it.”<\/p>\n

\nAriana previously declared the land of Oz, as featured in ‘Wicked’ and the original ‘Wizard of Oz’ story, to be a “very queer place” and insisted it had “always” been that way.<\/p>\n

\nShe told GLAAD: “Oz is a very queer place and has always been, even from the L. Frank Baum books. It’s always been queer.”<\/p>\n
