AceShowbiz - Adele doesn't like musicals but Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo's "Wicked" is an exception. The singer confirmed plans to watch the film adaptation despite her disdain for musicals.
The singer, 36, made the revelation during her Weekends With Adele residency show in Las Vegas on Friday, November 22. "I really don't like musicals," she said. "And don't judge me; I think it's an art, I think it's a craft, I think it's absolutely phenomenal, it just doesn't do anything for me."
However, Adele went on to praise Jon M. Chu's movie. "But whatever this 'Wicked' press campaign is going on. I am gagged to see it," she said. "I am going to watch Wicked which is absolutely crazy because I didn't like the musical itself. I don't like any musicals, but it's working."
"Their marketing campaign has worked. It has worked on me. And I am absolutely going to see it probably on Sunday, when I'm going to see it. I'm very, very excited," she concluded.
"Wicked" opened in theaters on Friday and is projected to have a record-breaking opening weekend for a Broadway adaptation.
