Ariana Grande, who is famously known for her dramatic transformation into Glinda the Good Witch for the upcoming Wicked film adaptation, recently shared some behind-the-scenes glimpses that have fans doing a double-take. While the star has become synonymous with Glinda’s iconic blonde locks, she revealed some surprising photos of herself in the character’s signature outfit—while sporting her natural brunette hair.
In a series of recent posts from Wicked costume fittings and rehearsals, Grande gave fans an inside look at her preparation for the role. The collection included fun moments, such as a video of her and co-star Cynthia Erivo rehearsing their “battle” during the song “What Is This Feeling?” and a sweet photo of her dog, Toulouse, perched on Elphaba’s bed.
Although most of the footage shows Grande with her platinum blonde hair as Glinda, there are a few surprising images featuring the star with dark brown hair. One particular photo shows her in Glinda’s iconic striped skirt suit—featuring a mix of soft blue-gray and pink stripes—while her espresso-toned hair is pulled back into a ponytail. The sight of her dressed as the bubbly Glinda with brunette locks is a bit of a shock for fans who are used to her blonde makeover for the role.
In a previous interview, Grande discussed how playing Glinda influenced her approach to beauty, especially in terms of makeup. “Glinda’s makeup kinda made me transform my entire look and my entire relationship to makeup,” she shared in a video from the Wicked makeup trailer. “I just love it so much. There’s no thick eyeliner. There’s no heavy crease. It’s just really warm and open and pretty.”
Grande’s unexpected dark-haired Glinda moment offers a refreshing glimpse into the actress’s evolving transformation for the highly anticipated film, where fans can look forward to seeing her both as the familiar blonde and in moments that hark back to her original look.
