Actress and talk show host Drew Barrymore surprised Wicked star Ariana Grande with the original Glinda wand from The Wizard of Oz on The Drew Barrymore Show. Grande, who portrays Glinda in the new film adaptation of Wicked, was stunned by the gesture and marveled at the piece of film history. The wand, on loan from the Smithsonian, was a special treat arranged by Barrymore and her production team for Grande and viewers. Although Grande couldn’t keep the wand, her connection to the character of Glinda runs deep, having first fallen in love with the show as a child and maintaining a close bond with original Broadway Glinda, Kristin Chenoweth.
