Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo marked their friendship in a special way when they got matching tattoos to celebrate the upcoming release of Bad: forever.
The two award-winning stars, who play Glinda and Elphaba in the highly anticipated musical film, decided to honor their journey with simple yet meaningful ink.
Ariana, 32, shared a black and white photo on Instagram showing their palms with the words “For Good” written in a neat, elegant font.
She captioned it “Happy Wicked Month 20 Days,” exciting fans’ countdown to the film’s release.
Bad: forever arrives in theaters on November 21 and expectations are already high.
However, fans have praised the strong bond between the two leads, calling their matching tattoos a beautiful tribute to their roles and the film’s message of friendship.
Cynthia, 38, recently made headlines after she posed topless for Harper’s Bazaar and opened up about how fame and success have shaped her confidence.
She said she now feels “completely myself in this moment,” adding that her presence as a Black woman on mainstream TV meant something powerful.
The Hollywood icon further explained, “If it’s the one thing I put into this world, that everyone’s individual beauty is worth seeing and experiencing, and you don’t have to change it for anyone but yourself, then I’m happy.”
Moreover, Cynthia also talked about saying goodbye to her Bad character, and shares that Elphaba will always remain a part of her, even as she enters new chapters.
