Ariana Grande and Jonathan Bailey shocked by hang-gliding paparazzi

Ariana Grande and Jonathan Bailey recently shared a jaw-dropping story about their Wicked film set being invaded by paparazzi using hang-gliders. The duo, who are starring as Glinda and Fiyero in the much-anticipated film adaptation, recounted their disbelief over the lengths photographers went to capture unauthorized images. Grande and Bailey revealed that during filming, they witnessed a photographer floating above them, tethered to a hang-glider with a large kite, attempting to snap aerial shots.

In an interview with a magazine, Grande described the incident as surreal, expressing her astonishment at the sight of a man suspended in mid-air with cameras strapped to him. “I thought I was seeing things,” Grande said. She also humorously suggested that the persistent paparazzo could play a pterodactyl in Bailey’s upcoming Jurassic Park film. Wicked is set for its first part release on November 22, 2024, with the second part following on November 26, 2025.
