Ariana Grande has already watched 'Wicked' ten times.
Ariana Grande feels proud of the hit movie
The 31-year-old star plays Glinda in the Jon M. Chu-directed adaptation of the hit stage musical, and Ariana has revealed that she still loves watching the acclaimed movie.
Asked how many times she's seen the film, Ariana told The Hollywood Reporter: "I lost count. I think I’m at ten.
"When I saw it with my nonna in Florida, I did check my phone a few times and my mom was like, ‘Ariana, get off your phone!’ And I was like, ‘Mommy, not only have I seen it, but I’m in it!’ I was like, ‘I know what happens here. I think I can quickly check what was just sent to me!’ She’s like, ‘Ariana, you’re talking!'”
Ariana has been nominated for a Golden Globe for her role in the film, and she feels "grateful" to have been recognised.
She said: "It just feels incredibly surreal. It’s certainly not something that you expect. I think it’s just so surreal and I just feel so deeply grateful.
"We were just very immersed in the work and I was so grateful to have the chance to do the work and I was so excited to do the work every single day. From the lead up to my first audition to the last day on set on both of the films, I was sort of leading with deep gratitude every day."
Ariana has also heaped praise on the film's director.
The actress explained: "Jon Chu is such a brilliantly meticulous and thoughtful director and he comes in with shot by shot land and the perfect storyboard and it’s set to music. And he has this meticulous vision that he has in his head.
"But my favourite thing is that he gets that version of it and then he just wants to play and he’ll just completely end up with something that is full of surprises and he calls it 'catching butterflies.' And I think that’s what all of us were able to feel and do every day thanks to that environment, that inspired freedom, truth and honesty in play and improv."
