Breaking News: Universal Addresses SHOCKING Rumor – Ariana Grande Allegedly Paid $15M for ‘Wicked’ While Cynthia Erivo Got Just $1M!.Vuong

 

Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande were paid equal salaries for their respective roles in Wicked, Page Six can confirm.

Reports of pay disparity between Cynthia and Ariana are completely false and based on internet fodder. The women received equal pay for their work on Wicked, a spokesperson for Universal Pictures said in a statement to us Tuesday.

The confirmation comes after rumors spread on social media that the We Cant Be Friends (Wait for Your Love) singer, 31, was paid a whopping $15 million for her supporting role as Glinda, while Erivo, 37, made only $1 million to lead as Elphaba.

Fans expressed their disappointment in the alleged pay disparity, with one X user writing, Ariana getting paid $15m and Cynthia getting paid $1m is diabolical.

The disparity between Arianas salary ($15 mil) and Cynthias is crazy because why is it that much of a difference? And theyre both named leads in the film, another added.

A third fan called the rumor sick, while one more said it was insane.

While many people were upset by the gossip, several argued that Grande has a much bigger name and would draw a larger audience.

Neither Grande nor Erivo has publicly commented on the unsubstantiated rumors.

Page Six has reached out to their reps for comment.

The pair were cast in Wicked in 2021 and formed a close friendship and partnership during filming.

Erivo told Elle earlier this month that she feels she gained a sister in Grande and said they were both blown away by how connected [they] were immediately when they met.

They were then able to deepen their connection through hard and vulnerable conversations throughout the filming process, she explained.

Meanwhile, during a recent chat with the New York Times, Grande gushed that she had a friend every step of the way through the experience.
