There really is no escape from the powerful promotional train that is the Wicked press tour. The movie was released in November 2024, but the world has been digitally assaulted by advertisements since the dawn of time. Emotionally, we're starting to feel like someone dropped a house on us and then stole our shoes. It's a bit much.
Fortunately, TikTok always finds a way to make light of a situation that is taking itself far too seriously. You could say we're holding space for the trends that are singing truth to power about Wicked and by extension, The Wizard of Oz.
One of our favorite new trends is Glinda's reaction to Dorothy singing because real fans know what was actually happening in that world when Dorothy dropped in.

This is what it looks like when two people try to interact in a healthy fashion. Dorothy is merely expressing her feelings to Glinda after murdering a woman. Meanwhile, Glinda is asserting her boundaries by explaining to Dorothy that she too is "going through it" and doesn't have the "emotional capacity" to deal with what Dorothy has just dropped off.
Glinda Loves Lucy
Lucille Ball would have made an excellent Glinda. Imagine that pink dress being filled to the brim with chocolates as she tries to keep up with the speedy conveyor belt. Is that too deep a cut? Regardless, both Lucy and Glinda have what we like to call Resting Witch Face, and it works on just about anyone.
