Cynthia Erivo weighs in on public perception of Ariana Grande friendship
Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande's friendship reigned over social content throughout the press circuit for Wicked , and arguably created more noise than the picture itself.
In interviews, the 39-year-old starlet and vocalist was often seen being protective of Grande, 32, or the costars voicing their affection towards each other.
While it seemed wholesome to many people, some were dissecting the nature of their friendship, either calling it fake or something more than a friendship.
Addressing the whole discussion on the internet, the Broadway notable recently said in an content conversation, “It’s very interesting, watching what people’s perception is versus what the reality actually is. Lots of psychologists seated at home deciding who we were, what we were going through, what we were doing and why."
Erivo continued, "I think that people didn’t really believe that we were actually friends. But that’s also because people don’t know me very well. If I’m a friend, then I’m a friend. If I’m not, then I’m not.”
