AceShowbiz - Ariana Grande's award season has kicked off with a Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actress in "[m-Wicked]". The singer-actress is also a frontrunner for the same category at the upcoming Academy Awards in March.
Despite the film's iconic songs being ineligible for the Best Original Song category, Grande and her co-star Cynthia Erivo are eager to perform at the Oscars if invited. "Of course, we love singing with each other," Grande told The Hollywood Reporter. "I'll sing together absolutely anywhere anytime."
Erivo, who is nominated for a Golden Globe and is also generating Oscar buzz, joined Grande at the Beverly Hills luncheon alongside her mother, Joan Grande. Grande expressed her excitement over the positive response to "Wicked", particularly from her musical idol, Imogen Heap.
"Hearing that she saw it with her daughter and loved it, that was very exciting," Grande said. "We got to meet Steven Spielberg, and it was an incredible honor. He was so kind."
The Golden Globe event was attended by other notable nominees, including Adam Brody, Pamela Anderson, Kathryn Hahn, Mikey Madison, Hiroyuki Sanada, Cooper Koch and Kris Bowers.
