Kim Kardashian just opened up her home to host a very special screening of the most highly anticipated film Wicked. It wasn’t simply any movie night, though; it was one wacky pajama party thrown by none other than the film’s stars themselves: Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo. The two musicians took Kim’s house and turned it into a colorful Wicked-themed fantasyland to make for one unforgettable night with the Kardashian-Jenner family.
There was the instant of a magical feeling as Kim welcomed in her guests. The entrance welcomed with bright pink balloons and really beautiful orchids, setting up the tone for what turned out to be a whimsical night.
“I just came home, look what we are watching tonight! Look what Cynthia and Ariana set up for us, I’ve never been more excited,” exclaimed Kim, finding that lively moment worth sharing on her Instagram story.
Everyone had matching pajamas from Kim’s own SKIMS line with fun designs inspired by the film. Even the kids got Wicked-themed Barbie dolls, so extra magical touches weren’t missed in the night. Truly, it was an intimate gathering with only a few close friends and some select industry insiders in tow.
With the advent of more and more guests, the welcome of pink balloons and green carpets set the night to fun and fantasy. Staying true to their reputation for drama, that was not an opportunity the Kardashian-Jenner family could afford to waste with the theme at hand.
That made it exclusive and, therefore, special; everybody could unwind and simply enjoy the film together. Kim shared pieces of the fun from her Instagram Stories for her fans to see the magical night.
Ariana Grande as Glinda the Good Witch and Cynthia Erivo as the lead of Elphaba were tonight’s headliners, their energy electric, bubbling over as they hobnobbed with the Kardashian family, giggling and exclaiming over the movie.
The two have been jointly publicizing Wicked, and indeed their chemistry was one to see the whole night. Themed refreshments accompanied the screening: popcorn served in Wicked-themed buckets and delicious cakes with the iconic characters of the story. The Aura was filled with laughter and all feelings of joy; it was a night to remember.
Wicked will open in cinemas on November 22, 2024, from the director Jon M. Chu. Based on the sensational Broadway musical, the film will feature an all-star lineup: Michelle Yeoh, Jeff Goldblum, Jonathan Bailey, and Peter Dinklage.
Ariana and Cynthia have been deeply involved in the promotion of the film, and their dedication to the characters they played can be seen in every appearance. The two actresses largely partnered during the making of the production.
They support each other in ensuring a harmonious working relationship that has contributed to their success. Camaraderie such as this is not for publicity’s sake but rather a manifestation of their true friendship and passion for the craft.
Others include a world tour by the promotional team, Ariana and Cynthia, titled “Journey Through Oz.” This is a set of events which will engage the stars with their fans in five cities around the world, giving them a personal experience of the magic of Wicked .
Their enthusiasm for the movie and its themes reverberates in everything that they do. And with the release of the film, Ariana’s beauty brand, r.e.m. beauty, launched a Wicked-inspired collection where their products were themed around Glinda and Elphaba. This just simply shows that the movie is extending its influence into the realms of fashion and beauty through its stars, knowing just how to fire up their army in really cool ways.
As the screening continued, there were laughs shared and some tears, and those present included Kylie Jenner, Khloé Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, and Kris Jenner. Having this bonding time together, Kylie did share an adorable snap of everyone’s feet being warm in pink socks-a nice touch that added to the cosiness of the meeting. Grande, being fully her character Elphaba, would wear green socks for a fun contrast to the rest of the group.
This special event pulled out the frenetic energy of “Wicked,” but also showed the artistic process behind the film. Grande and Erivo-both known for big performances and powerhouse lyrics-are committed to the craft necessary in providing a musical experience that will reverberate among the fans. It is really their commitment to their work and their connection with an audience that makes this adaptation highly awaited.
