That's not a voice crack, it's a yodel. It's intentional and an homage to Kristin Chenoweth's portrayal of Galinda. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wicked has a LOT going for it: - One of the most beloved broadway musicals of all time - Based on one of the most beloved musical films of all time (The Wizard Of Oz) - Has one of the biggest pop stars in the world as a lead - Built-in fanbases from broadway/pop music - It's gay as hell JFAD could've succeeded if Todd Philips wasn't afraid of leaning into the camp and theatricality of the concept, but instead he made a dud of a film that sits plainly in between multiple genres that doesn't do or say anything. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that helps A LOT with it having such major success. JFAD tried to sell a musical to the wrong audience AND it was a jukebox musical. Not something made up of entirely original songs. 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they are different people, and in the video in OP there's a split second of crunch at the best part of the song (for me) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he had a bigger impact than people realize. Alos queer icon, I believe a lot of his fall was because of homophobia.

It’s an actual musical with fans who appreciate musicals. Joker was not that and most of its fans are hardcore comic book bros who were going to hate the musical aspect of the film regardless. Completely different situation. Wicked is one of the most popular musicals of all time and has a lot going for it; it’s expected to do well. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
