I'm starting this thread to analyze a little the weird, uncanny behaviour of some Hollywood stars these days, especially to look closer at interviews and promotion in general of a new "Wicked" movie starring Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo. And it's even more sad when we consider that it is set in the universe of Oz, which as we know is full of allegories of truth about human condition and our world in general. Why did they pick exactly this piece to twist it and make it into some sick joke? Who knows.
I'm going to leave some videos here for you to watch and see for yourself what I'm referring to:
That's one of the interviews in which both actors are behaving in a very childish way, almost like they're drugged or playing some twisted, sick personas. The well known toxic positivity is on another level. And that ending.. no words. Just cringe, pure licking of each other's butts.
Here some analysis I found interesting:
Why is it interesting and important to bring up? With each passing year, I notice that the behavior of celebrities seems to increasingly resemble that of people from The Hunger Games. They not only start dressing similarly but also behaving in ways that, in my opinion, look even worse than the people of Capitol. These two actresses promote dramatic behavior, crying, getting emotional over the dumbest things, holding hands, and Cynthia constantly portrays herself as a victim of racism, hate, her struggles, emotions etc, even though she's an actress earning millions. The actors behave as if they’ve survived two wars and beaten cancer. Their narcissism is flowing out of the screen constantly. Of course, I don’t even need to mention that they claim the movie supports queer and diversity (Ariana even said something along the lines of how all of Oz is queer, and even the chickens there are gay and gay parades are there everyday...). This is just becoming downright pathetic. Society is divided: many people see it as fake and mentally unwell behavior, but many others are deeply moved and strongly support it.
For me it's just uncanny and it's hard for me to look at it. These two genuinely scare me. I don't know what happened to this world tbh, it turned into some twisted, narcissistic, make pretend, toxic positivity place full of crap. Only me me me everywhere. And my emotions.
And even if it is just their acting for promotion purposes it still doesn't change what is being promoted these days.
