Italian Ariana Grande is too ‘Hispanic’ to play ‘Wicked’

Italian-American Ariana Grande Another bizarre MAGA race attack.

Gina Loudon, host of the far-right cable network Real America’s Voice. Called the pop star “clearly” Hispanic The highly anticipated release of ‘Wicked’ failed in its attempt to prove that Hollywood is attacking white people.

“I should have known it was ‘holly-weird,’” Loudon began.

“I should have known that they would try to make it ‘woke’ in any way they could think of. Ariana Grande, who is clearly a hispanic woman, is a ditzy blonde white… Let’s start with the fact that he actually plays the villain.”

Laudon, who was a media advisor to Donald Trump’s 2020 campaign, also called the film “racist” and “racial appropriation,” adding that the filmmakers portrayed the villain as a “dizzy, blonde, white” woman.

Daily Kos reached out to Grande’s rep for comment but did not immediately hear back.

Social media users were quick to note the inaccuracy of Loudon’s outlandish accusations, with one Bluesky user calling out the MAGA expert “Confidently Fool” about her remarks.

Another user called Loudon’s comments “completely ignorant” and said her claims of racism “Reminiscent of the past administration”—referring to the bias frequently expressed by Trump’s colleagues during his first term.

It’s possible that the outspoken MAGA supporter still holds a grudge against the pop star for expressing support for Kamala Harris after the election.

Grande also has a history of showing support for the transgender community. Donated more than $1.5 million to organizations We will support transgender youth in 2022.

For Loudon, “othering” someone based on race to spread hate is reminiscent of Trump’s words. Investigation into campaign tracking When a felon claimed multiracial Harris was solely of ‘Indian heritage.’

In front of the National Association of Black Journalists trump said that “I didn’t know [Harris] “She was black until a few years ago when she happened to be black.”
