    training her voice to become legit opera has definitely helped her vocally in general. ALL the areas of her voice has improved soo much. I'm soo proud of her and I can't wait to see Wicked on November 30th, I listened to the soundtrack and she sounds INCREDIBLE

      That's just what haopens if you train operatically, any opera singer can sing any genre but you have to be special to be able to sing opera at high levels. Opera is much harder, it takes much more work and dedication. Opera is very demanding and it takes a toll on the body

      Okey, ella es increible, super talentosa y trabajo muy duro. Pero sonar legitimamente opera en meses cuando eso toma años? Y luego, el resultado esta bien broadway con estilo "operistico" pero bajo estandares profesionales operisticos la cosa es muy distinta....no entiendo la necesidad de hablar de una manera que promueve la ignorancia.

    • @victoriat7961
      @victoriat7961 Месяц назад +91

      also there was probably some doubt in her mind that they would even consider her at all if they wanted to “cast real theatre actors” and that they’d only see her as a “polished popstar girl” (and therefore not able to deliver) but i love that she trusted herself to put the work in, train and basically give everything she possibly had to “prove them wrong”. i think if she hadn’t gotten it she would’ve at least walked away knowing she did everything she could. that’s where i think that mentality comes from, bc she knows this type of role has to be earned.

      Because acting is acting and it's not just her now "up speak", it's the fact that she's done this before, taking on whatever she's working with at the moment..before it was the whole "African American" persona that she went with the whole first 10 years of her career. She used slang and spoke in a certain vernacular and even got spray tans and wore ethnic looking outfits. She is fucking weird.

      There's an interview of Kristin Chenoweth saying when Ari was like 10-12 she said she wanted to be Glinda and she called with the casting news and her and Kristin were just squealing with excitement. Great to see that she knew what she wanted, put in the work, and made it happen. Like she said, the role went to someone who deserved it, she just happened to work to be that person. I think her Nickelodeon career might've helped with the silliness of Glinda, and honestly her character from Victorious was such an airhead that I can see how she was able to get into Glinda so well. I think being a celebrity might've honestly helped too since she was self aware of the ways they can be seen as out of touch, or doing things like offering to help Elphaba with her "problem" of being green because it makes her more likeable and popular and not because she's actually listening. That kind of performative thing a lot of celebs get called out on.
