I find the SNL appearance a disgusting move

Ariana does NOT care about other women, she does not care about providing platforms for them, and she does not care about making up for having “performed” as a POC for years with zero apologising. She should have NOT done SNL. She should have said: guys, Cynthia should do it. But she just can’t share the spotlight, ever. No matter how much world salad she regurgitates in interviews. I think it’s disgusting that this was a PR move as some people have said here, so close to the premiere so people can “remember how funny Ariana is” and for that to positively taint her Wicked performance. But is gross. This should have been an opportunity for the GP to know Cynthia, the MAIN character, better and to generate enthusiasm about HER performance from an audience that perhaps doesn’t know her, or even to skeptics. They might do one in the upcoming weeks, who knows. But… if they don’t. That’s a BIG fuck up.
