Cynthia Erivo Stuns in Emerald Green at Premiere, Sparking Hilarious ‘Wicked’ Conspiracy Theory That She’s Secretly Building a Real-Life Oz
In a twist no one saw coming—except maybe a flying monkey—Cynthia Erivo turned the red carpet into a green carpet at the London premiere of *Wicked* last night, wearing a custom emerald gown so vibrant that fans immediately started a viral meme campaign claiming the actress is actually “stealing all the green from the Emerald City for herself.” The internet, in true chaotic fashion, is now debating whether Erivo is method acting as Elphaba so hard that she’s hoarding the color spectrum. “She’s not just *playing* the Wicked Witch—she’s the reason the grass is green in Oz,” one X user posted, alongside a side-by-side of Erivo’s dress and a shamrock. The irony? The actress has been famously vocal about not wanting to be reduced to a single color, yet here she is, becoming the very hue that broke the internet. Meme historians are calling this the “Green Screen of 2025” because, apparently, even the color of envy is now trademarked by Cynthia Erivo.
