✨Amanda Seyfried Fought for Glinda Like It Was the Hunger Games (But in Pink Heels & Sparkles)✨

Buy Me A Coffee

Amanda Seyfried just revealed she basically went to Broadway war trying to snatch the role of Glinda in Wicked—and it’s giving desperation, determination, and diva realness.

Our girl Amanda—aka Karen from Mean Girls, aka your mom’s fave in Mamma Mia—was out here grinding harder than a Starbucks blender on Frappuccino Happy Hour. Despite being 39, rich, beautiful, and in that magical celeb zone where she never has to audition for anything anymore, she voluntarily threw herself into the Glinda Thunderdome SIX TIMES. SIX. WHO DOES THAT??

“I’m in that privileged spot where I just don’t have to audition,” Amanda said on some fancy podcast that probably has jazz music in the intro. “But I was like, ‘Nah fam, I NEED TO BE GLINDA.’”

And when we say she trained, she TRAINED. Like Rocky Balboa meets Glee Club. She was harmonizing in the shower. Belting high notes while brushing her teeth. Probably doing jazz hands during Zoom calls. “I worked my ass off for YEARS on that music,” she said, like this was the Olympics of High Notes.

But guess what? The role went to Ariana “Whistle Tones or Bust” Grande. Tragic. Heartbreaking. A loss for the pink glittery community.

Still, Amanda came out of this like a sparkly phoenix. She said something poetic about how auditioning is beautiful and you should just be yourself and not act weird even when you’re nervous—which is… not how I personally operate, but slay queen!

So yes, Amanda Seyfried didn’t get the part. But she gave us THE DRAMA. And the next time you’re sobbing in the shower because you didn’t get cast as Tree #2 in the school musical, just remember: Even Hollywood royalty gets rejected. In heels. With glitter. And dignity.
