Cynthia Erivo believes Elphaba loves Glinda, and their 'true love' is why fans are 'shipping' the characters, while Ariana Grande suggests Glinda might be 'a little in the closet'.
Grande also notes that the Emerald City is like a 'Pride parade' and that Peter Dinklage's character, Dr. Dillamond, is a 'gay icon' with his Bode cardigan and custom tea device.
