“When
it’s
a
male
actor
that
does
it,
it’s
acclaimed,”
she
told
Vanity
Fair. “There
are
definitely
jokes
that
are
made
as
well,
but
it’s
always
after
being
led
with
praise:
‘Oh,
wow,
he
was
so
lost
in
the
role.’
And
that’s
just
a
part
of
the
job,
really.”
And
for
what
it’s
worth,
Ariana
can
distinguish
herself
apart
from
Glinda.
In
fact,
E!
News
recently
confirmed
that
the
actress
is
being
credited
as
Ariana
Grande-Butera—her
real
name
that
nods
to
mom
Joan
Grande and
dad Edward
Butera—in
Wicked.
“I
am
really
proud
of
my
hard
work,”
she
told
VF
of
her
performance
in
the
movie, “and
of
the
fact
that
I
did
give
100
percent
of
myself,
including
my
physicality,
to
this
role.”
