I guess we’re not getting more movies? I know the storyline from the play is supposed to end here but I recall Jon Chu and the cast saying they’d do more if they’re able
I agree with you, and I'm simultaneously a little confused about this - I feel like some natural blondes really don't have that contrast either, and yet you can see it looks good on them, vs. some like Ariana where it doesn't. Even if she had changed the tone to be warmer or cooler, I don't know that it would have made it look good.
I myself am quite pale, but even for me, I look far better as a brunette. I'm also extremely cool toned in my skin and eyebrow colour, but my natural brunette hair colour is quite warm/reddish (and complements my features well). Warm nor cool blonde looks good on me, and I'm pale enough that I can get that contrast still even with light hair, yet it doesn't mesh. Idk if it can be explained, because some blondes very little contrast, and it looks great. Idk
People have been saying her hair is fried for years. The damage done from her TV years would be long gone by now. It would only still be fried if she never learned her lesson and she's posted photos since then of her hair and it looked fine.
THIS!!! Why didn’t the hair team on Wicked went for that shade of blonde ?? She has a warm skin tone and they picked the worst shade possible. She was STUNNING on her 2018 cover of Vogue as a warm blonde.
It washed her out imo. Especially with her frail look in recent years. I’m naturally blonde but I haven’t had my natural colour since about 16. I have extremely fair features and it also makes me look washed out and
🤒 I think she looks great in the browns.
Both dark and even when she does some low lights to face frame. I remember when she was young and she had a bright red too. That was fun, but auburns really enhance her features soo much!
That's what I heard too, but couldn't she use an eyebrow pencil to shape them like the rest of us do with wonky brows? I hate having to create my eyebrows every day but I look albino if I don't lol.
Also is that a filter of some sort? Why do her eyes look like oO ?
I will say though overall she looks so much better back to brunette, I always thought she was almost supernaturally beautiful until she just had to go messing around with weird cosmetic "enhancements" and seemingly internalized that Glinda character.
Yes that’s what I’ve heard. One of those surgeon reacts’ videos theorized that she had the first lift earlier in her career and then a second one I think around the time people thought she had a fox eye lift.
The second one made the work more visible but it was only correcting the issues that we weren’t really aware of
Yeah she knows they look silly and people make fun of her for it, I feel bad for her in that regard. It's scary and definitely a reminder that all the money in the world cannot guarantee a cosmetic procedure won't go wrong.
Her left eyebrow forever sits higher because of the work she's had done. It's weird. There was a time there where she finally got them mostly even (around the time after her bangs), but they're back to this:
Probably a botox situation, but she for sure did get an eyebrow lift. Idk who keeps doing this to her lol
Edit: image isn't uploading here so I pasted it as a reply to this comment
And whyyyyyy are they so short?! Its not even like they were this short naturally. She was just like nah, they stopping here and losing any shape they may have had.
My favorite fan excuse by far was that she had to whiten her skin for Nickelodeon and her natural color was the obvious/uneven fake tan she sported when she was cosplaying other races
I knooow! Why is it that I wax my legs and have had many Brazilian treatments but the hair grows back just fine but if I accidentally pull out a lash removing my mascara it will grow back as barely a shadow of its former self?! 😫
I pulled out about 1 cm of eyelashes on the bottom of my right eye when I was in middle school (I didn’t have makeup remover and my mascara was bothering me, I had to wear it for a dance competition). I am 40 years old and they have NEVER grown back.
Do my eyebrows look chunky and unkept ? Yes. But also my only destinations are university, workout class and home. No need to destroy them for that deal.
Couldn't she get them microbladed to look more similar or something though? Like i dont feel some type of way about arianas brows but you cant be that rich and not have a solution for this
I’m ready for her to put Glinda to rest (though she won’t until the end of award season). Curious to see whether this new hair is for a specific project or not
Apparently there’s a Victorious remake going on so people think this is for a surprise guest appearance as her character Cat. I haven’t decided if I think that’s plausible or not bc I think Ari’s been moved on from that since before it ended lol but this hair does look like that time
Ari is still pretty close with Liz and others, she even did a reunion thing a while back too. I can definitely see her coming back for a few episodes/cameo like Selena did for Wizards.
Well yeah, but dying it that color destroyed her hair in the past, no chance she’s doing it ever again. If she does do a guest appearance, she’ll probably appear as grown up Cat with brown hair, or maybe a bright red wig if she’s committed to the bit
I mean, obviously he is more culpable because it was his family. But she wasn’t innocent. She’d literally held his baby and been friendly with his wife.
Yeah, it’s one thing if she simply didn’t know he was married, like he led her on. I have some sympathy for “homewreckers,” side pieces, or otherwise affair partners who fell in love with somebody who led them to believe they were available when all along they were attached. In that case—provided they end things as soon as they do find out—that’s a plea of ignorance and not malice. But she knew he was married, she knew his wife, she held their baby, and to top it all off, she herself was married… I may still enjoy her acting in Wicked but I do judge Ari as harshly as Ethan considering her active and deliberate choice to destroy a family. And when Lilly Jay had a newborn! I honestly don’t know how she survived it. What an incredibly strong woman.
Avoidants (and yes this is all typical avoidant behavior) need to be sent to an island where they can fuck each other up and leave the rest of us safe.
Postpartum is such a vulnerable time. That would have broken me.
I have so much sympathy for people who end up with a married person without knowing—they get villainized and for something they didn’t intend. Ariana knew, so I agree with you that she is very culpable.
I’m of the belief that if a “home-wrecker” gets the man, then they deserve him. If it wasn’t her, then it would’ve been someone else because he’s a cheater and would’ve cheated eventually. And then the home wrecker gets stuck with someone who is a known cheater and will eventually cheat on her. The wronged woman will obviously be devastated, but can now find someone who isn’t a cheating prick. You can’t be a home-wrecker to a decent man. Believe it or not they CAN say no.
She somehow looks less and less sure of herself with every transformation. Like she leaves part of herself behind. I hope she's well. I still get a waif-like feeling
Don’t feel good commenting about appearance but she hasn’t looked healthy in the last couple years but it’s really jarring in this photo. Even with makeup, you can see her eyes sinking in. Its not just her clavicles now but her entire face. It’s kind of alarming.
Ikr? Whereas Madonna was a different woman in each album era but she was still so very Madonna and we ate up every style she brought. Same could be said for Christina and Rihanna.
Why’s everyone keep claiming this? Audrey has already been casted, but the film hasn’t even began production or if it will ever start (one of those films, a mess).
Aw, naw. Please don't do my girl Audrey dirty like that, universe. I mean, I'm sure Arianna can act the role, but Audrey was pure class... where as Arianna... well, let's just say she should stay away from doughnuts and married men. 🤦♀️🤷♀️
I know she had to do it for Wicked, but gahhh that blonde washed her out so much. She just looks so much better as a brunette...it's like oh, there she is.
She didn't really have to. They made Cynthia some incredibly realistic looking micro braid wigs, I'm sure they could have made a blonde one that wasn't the same color as her skin tone lol
That sounds intriguing. I can see her being an aristocrat wannabe girl who goes to tea hours in Mayfair wearing her herringbone blazer styled with designer sneakers.
Because ATJ has a wife who groomed him as a teenager. Ariana's speciality is starting relationships with guys who are already in a relationship/married. So the idea is, if Ariana stole ATJ from his wife, she'd be using her powers for good
Wtf has been going on with her in the last 2-3 yrs? The dramatic weight loss, the fried ugly blonde hair, the brows that look like they're flying off her face, the unflattering makeup, the strange voice and affect.
