Do you remember that moment when Cynthia Erivo threw some serious “Wicked” shade at her fellow auditionees? It seems that this pointed look might have been directed at Amanda Seyfried, sparking a buzz about their audition dynamics!

Amanda recently shared some intriguing insights on the “Comfortable Unhappy Confused” podcast, where she indirectly revealed that she auditioned for the role of Glinda in “Wicked.” Interestingly, she disclosed that she actually sang alongside Cynthia during the auditions, well before Ariana Grande secured her role, shedding light on the competitive nature of the casting process.

This moment was certainly a significant milestone for Amanda, but let’s take a step back to November when Cynthia mentioned in an interview with the New York Times that Ariana landing the role was not a surprise. She added, “Thank goodness, as it was not the two girls that I was auditioning with,” hinting at the competitive auditions that took place.

While Cynthia never explicitly named the actresses she auditioned alongside, Amanda’s recent remarks about the audition process suggest that she could have been one of them. This speculation adds an interesting layer to the ongoing conversation surrounding the casting of “Wicked.”

Despite the underlying tension, it appears that Amanda either missed the shade or remains blissfully unaware, as she continues to look back at the audition experience with nothing but positive memories and reflections!
