Ariana Grande Reunites With Wicked’s Young Galinda

Ariana Grande had the sweetest cause for celebration at the 2026 Golden Globes.

While entering the ballroom at the Beverly Hilton for the Jan. 11 award show, the Wicked star ran into Scarlett Spears, who portrayed the younger version of her character Galinda in Wicked: For Good. 

“When two worlds collide, in the BEST way possible,” Scarlett captioned an adorable Jan. 12 Instagram video of their meeting, “#ForeverFriends.”

And Ariana was overjoyed to have met up with the 8-year-old and her mother Sharline Spears, writing in the comments, “My angels! it was so good to see you both!!!!!!” (See which other celebrities stepped out at the Golden Globes here.)

In the video, Scarlett could be seen running up the 32-year-old, who immediately bent down to give her costar a huge hug. 

“Oh my god, hi,” Ariana exclaimed to Scarlett. “Look how beautiful you are! You look stunning.”

The “Seven Rings” singer introduced Scarlett to stylist Law Roach as she gave her another hug, telling Scarlett, “I’m so happy to see you. Oh my god, I’m so happy you’re here.”
