I saw her on one or the National tours and she is one of my favorite Glindas--and she performed with my favorite Elphaba, Marcie Dodd. Incredible pair!
Kristen will always be the best but I’m actually a fan of how Jenni Barber did it!! I think there’s something in her voice that’s so unique for the character! Her facials crack me up too 😂
I love how in the Brazilian version the "were... are" part wouldn't fit so they changed Glinda's line to something like "you need to celebrate the blessings that life gave you... me." and it cracks me up
Fabi Bang (Brazil Glinda) managed to be more unhinged in the recent non-replica of Wicked from last year. From doing "Desafio da Cuca" towards the climax of the song, to several references to the then-recent _Barbie_ movie.
@@sorrynotsorry6there was another one of these in australia recently! I think you should find a video of it bc it was NEARLY acurate by the first musical 😅
It’s interesting that Australia and the UK went completely different directions with the accents. The Australian Galindas put on an American accent, but the British Galindas have an exaggerated posh accent! Like, the UK production adapted the characterization so that Galinda’s accent was a local shorthand for understanding her wealthy background, which is cool and I don’t see done much in Broadway-to-West End transfers nowadays.
Totally agreed. I regularly come and watch her performance. I guess that may be because my first broadway wicked Glinda cast was Ali? but shes the best too.
I love how the Brazilian performance ends with the audience member shrieking at 18:02, you can tell she loved the performance haha I think fabi bang's version is my favourite for the energy alone
Fabi Bang is amazing! I guess only Brazilians can catch all the layers in Fabi's performance. There is a version of popular from July 2023 (a non-official version) that is everything. If you want to have a look ua-cam.com/video/UY5jeLpe-Z8/v-deo.html&ab_channel=PortalFama
Megan Hilty’s voice is AMAZING. I don’t think non-singers realise how hard those transitions from belt to very breathy, high nasal singing are, and she makes it look EFFORTLESS
They're all great and it's nice to see how they each put their own spin on it (of course Kristin is a classic) but I really liked how Lucy Durack does "I know about popular" (9:28) because it's more...heartfelt? Like she's actually trying to reassure Elphaba since she knows she'll be feeling uneasy about all this. She also had my favorite "lar". 😂 ~:~
Ali Mauzey is really good- her voice isn’t overly annoying and tinny, and she has a wonderful understanding of the comic personality of the character. very lovely to watch and listen to.
I once saw a theatre kids video on youtube where he said the reason they don't always cut the lace off wigs in theatre is cause they assume with the theatre lights on that people won't be able to see it in the crowd but if you're in the front few rows or there is going to be cameras recording the performance up close you can definitely tell so it's way better to just take the time to trim the lace off.
It's always interesting how differently characters can be portrayed and still be good each time. I think the different actresses/actors changing up the character is what keeps the show from getting boring if you were see them several times. Some people complain that it's different but I absolutely love it!
I think what Makes Kristin the best Galinda is she has always been a sensational comic actress. Others may sing it as well or possibly better, but the timing that Popular takes is everything and Kristin has it.
i don’t think anyone could ever beat kristen, i think she could still play that part perfectly to this day, the mannerisms and everything are just so perfect 🤣
I love the Korean versions though I’m curious as to how it’s translated and what lyrics might be different in another language as compared to translating it one for one. Like in the Korean versions the “right now” instead of “instead of dreary who you were, well are”
The literal translation is “Popular, because of me you’ll be popular. Let’s make lots good (status) friends and some new slang. Let’s start as soon as possible ‘cause we’ve got a long road to go. Please don’t feel bad about my honest analysis and advice and just follow along. I’ve decided that I wanna be your friend. There’s no one like me anywhere. I major in popular, I minor in popular. I’ll make you forget your dark and dreary past right now! With my help, you’re now popular”
In songs the lyrics' syllables and how they fit into the melody is especially important in the Korean language because our pronunciation and writing system focuses a lot on splitting up syllables.(But in general lyric translations for performances can never be one on one accurate lol)Also it is common in korean musicals to incorporate new english lyrics into the translated versions for a smoother representation of the original!
I appreciate the different languages, but specifically hearing British Glinda breaks my brain 😂 I’m so used to her sounding like a stereotypical valley girl
I saw Wicked twice on Broadway: 2018 and 2021. I really liked the high-pitched hilarity of Glenda in the 2018 version. 2021 version wasn't bad. She just wasn't as outrageous.
Comparing the English and non-English versions, I never realized how American (or at least "Western") a lot of the humor is. Especially with gags like the "were-are/ler-lar" lines, I gotta wonder how they were able to translate the jokes. Regarless, they were all spectacular performances ^_^
I think what makes Kristin’s so compelling and clear is her breath control and specific choices. This song is so challenging to sing and commit to and move with- so sometimes I think the labored breathing takes away from Glinda’s sense of security in herself. She’s preppy and flamboyant, yes- and she moves with grace and swiftness. All of these women are fantastic. And I do love to see, hear, and feel all of the different renditions of Glinda that introduce new layers/nuances/characteristics that audiences haven’t thought of before or expected. Excitement rises and falls so differently in each body, and this is one hell of a role!!! They’re fabulous. And Kristin originating the role for others to continue to flourish in it has created such a beautiful garden. So excited for the movie ❤️
My Top: 1. Annaleigh Ashford 2. Kristine Chenowith 3. Cecilia de la Cueva ( mexican Glinda/ my Country ) 4. Luci Scherer 5. Lucy Durack 6. Kara Lindsay 7. Fabi Bang
I love this video!! As beautifully defined as Galinda was by the outstanding Kristin Chenoweth, it’s awesome to see how each actress put her own little spin to build on that! I saw Megan Hilty perform live with The Seattle Men’s Chorus and after each song she did, she did a little chuckle which endeared me to her. When I read she had played Galinda, I thought “Yeah, I can see how she’d be perfect in that role!”
Curious Fact: Kara Lindsay also Played Katherine Plumber / Pulitzer in The musical of " Newsies" Curious Fact N°2 : Annaleigh Ashford also Played The Character of Verónica Sawyer in The Workshop version of Heathers The musical in 2009
Lyrics translated to English for those that don't speak Spanish. Popular I help you be popular You'll know who you can hang out with When to lie How to never get fat You see, with you there's a lot to... work on I'll get rid of the ugly and the pathetic in you Picture me giving you aesthetic laxants! Because you're my friend I promise to make a princess out of the frog No one can win over me Because I make everything Popular I know how to be popular With my help you'll see You'll stop being the blandest thing that has ever been here ...yikes And nothing will prevent me doing it for you Yes! La la, la la I'll make you PO-PU-LARRRR
megan hilty is the most impressive bc she not only does the improv part well but actually makes me think for a second these are really great lyrics too. i actually hear and laugh at the personality dialysis line when she does it whereas w actually every other one i've seen it's just like "and this is the middle line that fills in between the funny bits"
analeigh and Megan hilty are my favorites, didn't see megan live, but Annaleigh and Stephanie J block on tour in San diego, this is one of my favorite songs from wicked
Kristen, Miyuki, Sun-Ah, Bo- Kyung and Ivy are amazing not just because of their voices, but they are a little savage in their own way and don’t feel like I should either idolize or bash Glinda, but think she is jealous and trying to help at the same time.

Thank you!
Current Glinda is Kate Rockwell if y'all are wondering
❤
Courtney Monsma is Glinda in the 2024 Australian season of Wicked and she is spectacular and hilariously funny. She’s truly a star 🌟 💓
As a Brazilian I’m sorry. Ours sounds and acts like it’s a school play! 😂
I love how broadway Glindas get more and more unhinged as the years go on
Yes!!! Personally I think… Glinda went off the rails COMPLETELY with Alli Mauzey and Kara Lindsay 😂
This is so true Glinda gets more and more and more manic w/every staging
It’s gaaaaaaalinda 😂
Actually Brittney Johnson (current Glenda) is pretty melow compared to a few others, but I do see what you mean. I absolutely love the craziness.
frr jenni barber was so funny with her performance
Ali Mauzey’s is such a refreshing Glinda for me. so bubbly, unhinged, and unserious. she stands out for me. absolutely love it!
I saw her on one or the National tours and she is one of my favorite Glindas--and she performed with my favorite Elphaba, Marcie Dodd. Incredible pair!
She's my favorite Glinda, sooo funny and charismatic! I love Glinda because of her
I saw her in crybaby musical. And in wicked. But Glenda wasn’t even half as unhinged as her character and crybaby, and it was amazing.
I think her voice fits glinda a lot more than the full voices that Kristin and other actresses have
I love how in all of them the actress playing Elphaba is trying not to laugh
Ikr cute
I love how every actress after Kristen makes Glinda their own.
The touring Glinda's also made it their own!
Kristen will always be the best but I’m actually a fan of how Jenni Barber did it!! I think there’s something in her voice that’s so unique for the character! Her facials crack me up too 😂
She's my favorite glinda
Omg she totally killed it! Ali Mauzey was my other favourite (aside from Kristin of course). They both did the physical comedy really well😂
Omg same I saw it on Broadway when she was Glinda
I'm Biss to Kristen bc that's who performed when I saw it, but they're all very good
I love Kristen, but when you compare her version here to the others, she doesn't seem to having as much fun.
I love how in the Brazilian version the "were... are" part wouldn't fit so they changed Glinda's line to something like "you need to celebrate the blessings that life gave you... me." and it cracks me up
Sim! Ficou tão booooom!!!
Thank you for translating! I don't speak a lick of portuguese but the actress was so good she made me laugh!! 😂 Loved her 😂😂
Kristin's "awfully long way to go" was the best and the most naturally funny haha
She will ALWAYS get my vote!
I agree!
i feel like jenni barbers is a very very close second
yup
Love how Kim Bo Kyung just throws Elphaba away so suddenly!
Me too 😂🤣🤣🤣✨ So Flawless in a way 😁✨💟👑
that was hilarious
Fabi Bang (Brazil Glinda) managed to be more unhinged in the recent non-replica of Wicked from last year. From doing "Desafio da Cuca" towards the climax of the song, to several references to the then-recent _Barbie_ movie.
So cool to know Laura Bell Bundy did it! Totally fits with Elle! Also cool she was an understudy for Glinda and Annaleigh was for Elle!
Yeah it is!
And the actress who played Margot in legally blonde is also
In here!! (Annaleigha ahsford)
@@carolinak5169And she's my favorite Glinda other than Kristin Chenoweth

Ali Mauzey absolutely kills it in the acting aspect. She makes it so fun!
exactly! You can feel Glinda's ADHD with Ali Mauzey LMAO
I saw wicked when Ali was Glinda
Genuinely enjoyed her the most
Totally agreed. I regularly come and watch her performance. I guess that may be because my first broadway wicked Glinda cast was Ali? but shes the best too.
Kendra for the acting, Alli for the sheer unhinged madness that sort of became the blueprint for every Glinda that came after her.
Fabi Bang is really good in the 016 one, but the 2023 one is AMAZING. Loved Kim Bo Kyung Too
I love how the Brazilian performance ends with the audience member shrieking at 18:02, you can tell she loved the performance haha I think fabi bang's version is my favourite for the energy alone
We from Brazil were happy with that! 🇧🇷
Fabi Bang is truly amazing
Fabi Bang is amazing! I guess only Brazilians can catch all the layers in Fabi's performance. There is a version of popular from July 2023 (a non-official version) that is everything. If you want to have a look ua-cam.com/video/UY5jeLpe-Z8/v-deo.html&ab_channel=PortalFama
we really love her
I love Jung Sun Ah!! She has so much energy it's just amazing
OMG same and how Elpheba went along with it and made each motion and action larger!
Yesss
She’s my fave too :)
Megan Hilty’s voice is AMAZING. I don’t think non-singers realise how hard those transitions from belt to very breathy, high nasal singing are, and she makes it look EFFORTLESS
felt the same way. It's like her voice was only using 30% power and was dying to sing out more, somehow.
Yes! She's from where I live and I met her after the show, she's tremendous. Megan Hilty is second only to Kristin in this role.
I know!!!!!!! I wish I had her voice 😭
They're all great and it's nice to see how they each put their own spin on it (of course Kristin is a classic) but I really liked how Lucy Durack does "I know about popular" (9:28) because it's more...heartfelt? Like she's actually trying to reassure Elphaba since she knows she'll be feeling uneasy about all this. She also had my favorite "lar". 😂
~:~
yesss!! it was so cute, and imo made her stand out from the rest during that part.
I love how faithful they are to the costumes and the pose and locations of the characters!
12:24 Jung Sun Ah has amazing energy for Glinda
Ali Mauzey is really good- her voice isn’t overly annoying and tinny, and she has a wonderful understanding of the comic personality of the character. very lovely to watch and listen to.
I love Jung Sun Ah’s energy !!
She's having a blast with it!
Her bit after prancing around was freaking funny! It actually made me laugh out loud. 😂
Having watched her irl when she did If/Then, she’s absolutely magnetic
13:48 they did this elphaba SO dirty with that lace front
Was looking for this comment 😅😂
YO IT MADE MY JAW DROP
FOR REAL! Came here to say the same. They don’t know how to trim lace? Yikes!!
I once saw a theatre kids video on youtube where he said the reason they don't always cut the lace off wigs in theatre is cause they assume with the theatre lights on that people won't be able to see it in the crowd but if you're in the front few rows or there is going to be cameras recording the performance up close you can definitely tell so it's way better to just take the time to trim the lace off.
Oh my god I just realized it’s Danna Paola!! She’s a famous child actress
It's always interesting how differently characters can be portrayed and still be good each time. I think the different actresses/actors changing up the character is what keeps the show from getting boring if you were see them several times.
Some people complain that it's different but I absolutely love it!
I think what Makes Kristin the best Galinda is she has always been a sensational comic actress. Others may sing it as well or possibly better, but the timing that Popular takes is everything and Kristin has it.
So cool to see other languages!
I Know
( Whispering) Spetially in Spanish (my Language) in The mexican version of "Wicked"
i don’t think anyone could ever beat kristen, i think she could still play that part perfectly to this day, the mannerisms and everything are just so perfect 🤣
It's her comic timing that makes this song hit home.
The Korean actresses were so charasmatic😂😂😂
I was lucky to see Kristin as Glenda when the show first came out. Absolutely captivating!
I like the Korean team specifically made the decision to yeet her in the end lol
kara lindsay bringing a surfer dude twang to the song makes me crack upppp omg. one of my fav clips out of all of these.
All these ladies are SPECTACULAR but putting GLEE in here is a crime against humanity😂
Lmaooo fr
Why? Lea Michele and Chris Colfer do an amazing job
it’s good and they have talent that’s something you can’t deny
I love the Korean versions though I’m curious as to how it’s translated and what lyrics might be different in another language as compared to translating it one for one. Like in the Korean versions the “right now” instead of “instead of dreary who you were, well are”
The literal translation is “Popular, because of me you’ll be popular. Let’s make lots good (status) friends and some new slang. Let’s start as soon as possible ‘cause we’ve got a long road to go.

Fabi Bang is truly one of the best Galindas ever. I love her! ❤
Ali Muazy is literally my favorite and her role in crybaby is so perfect😭
THE BRAZILIAN ONE WITH THE CLAPPING HANDS - I LIIIIIIIIIIVE ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm looking for a clip of the Glinda who yells "LIKE ME!" so loudly it makes Elph's actress jump :)
Aha found it! It was Megan yelling it and making Elph break character xD
ua-cam.com/video/H5gOGHqitL0/v-deo.html
Megan hilty perhaps?
Go Ceci!!! I never saw a Prettier Glinda. I like the whimsical pop-star voice she brought to Glinda.
Glinda is really funny during popular but elphie's expressions give me so much
Fabi Bang kills it in 2016 and 2023. Love her ❤
YEAAAH!!!
No one could ever replace Kristin & Idina! I wished the movie would've been made from them!
me too. they'll always be the top versions
same
Im so happy to see Cecilia de la Cueva. She is going to be the official voice actreess on the movie too, alongside Danna Paola, who played Elphaba
Kara Lindsay's, "I know about popular" is my favorite rendition, but they are all amazing women.
I was looking for this comment! Her dude popular flex has me in stitches lol 😂
I really like the different language ones and how they adapt it
I like how most of them kinda warp into Shakira voice when they sing the word “popular”
My fav is still Kirsten. They are all sooo talented tho
Kristen*
She has the voice AND is very funny
I appreciate the different languages, but specifically hearing British Glinda breaks my brain 😂 I’m so used to her sounding like a stereotypical valley girl
The elocution is on another level though with the British ones.
She sounds smarter 😂😂
Same! The foreign language ones are so fun but the British accent is jarring
9:55 she plays glinda so well!!
the fabi bang clip looks like watching a glowing, heavenly ethereal being 😂
Glee appearing completely blindsided me. But I really liked the pairing of the voices
I saw Wicked twice on Broadway: 2018 and 2021. I really liked the high-pitched hilarity of Glenda in the 2018 version. 2021 version wasn't bad. She just wasn't as outrageous.
Megan Hilty and Kristin Chenowith by far!!! So amazing, and funny! I did like the Korean cast too.
Comparing the English and non-English versions, I never realized how American (or at least "Western") a lot of the humor is.
Especially with gags like the "were-are/ler-lar" lines, I gotta wonder how they were able to translate the jokes.
Regarless, they were all spectacular performances ^_^
This isn’t the best Gina can sing I saw her live last month for my birthday. She’s truly amazing!!!
I think what makes Kristin’s so compelling and clear is her breath control and specific choices. This song is so challenging to sing and commit to and move with- so sometimes I think the labored breathing takes away from Glinda’s sense of security in herself.

the korean version was so over the top but i love it
Amazing compilation by some amazing women! How the Elphabas stay in character is a testament to great acting tbh, I'm in tears laughing 😂
loved seeing all the choices each glinda made, annaleigh's really stuck with me!!
Annaleigh was so good in this role
for me, Ali Mauzey is THE REAL GLINDA~~~~~~!!!
Jung Sun Ah is my favorite
Kristin, Ali Mauzey and Fabi from Brazil! Perfect!💖😂😂😂
Love the English accents from the west end Glindas
I dont
Right behind Kristin comes Fabi, from Brazil. The woman is a LEGEND and did not deserve that clip with that crappy lighting.
Dang Lucy Scherer’s voice is so crispy, it tickled my brain and I dont even know German.

JAJAJAJAJA glinda in mexico tells Elphaba how not to get fat! 😂😭😂😭
Lyrics translated to English for those that don't speak Spanish.
Popular
I help you be popular
You'll know who you can hang out with
When to lie
How to never get fat
You see, with you there's a lot to... work on
I'll get rid of the ugly and the pathetic in you
Picture me giving you aesthetic laxants!
Because you're my friend I promise to make a princess out of the frog
No one can win over me
Because I make everything Popular
I know how to be popular
With my help you'll see
You'll stop being the blandest thing that has ever been here
...yikes
And nothing will prevent me doing it for you
Yes!
La la, la la
I'll make you PO-PU-LARRRR
@@escotiyaotl8869gosh that’s brutal 😂
I like how all of them result to just throwing elpheba around
I think jennie barber sold it so well she was REALLLYYY in character and highlighted the parts that needed to be highlighted very well
megan hilty is the most impressive bc she not only does the improv part well but actually makes me think for a second these are really great lyrics too. i actually hear and laugh at the personality dialysis line when she does it whereas w actually every other one i've seen it's just like "and this is the middle line that fills in between the funny bits"
14:24 HER ENERGY
Wow. This was fascinating. Not what I expected.
analeigh and Megan hilty are my favorites, didn't see megan live, but Annaleigh and Stephanie J block on tour in San diego, this is one of my favorite songs from wicked
Korean Popular hits different no one can change my mind
한국어 버전은 완벽해 아무도 내 마음을 바꿀 수 없어
It’s lacking but it was fun
Kristen, Miyuki, Sun-Ah, Bo- Kyung and Ivy are amazing not just because of their voices, but they are a little savage in their own way and don’t feel like I should either idolize or bash Glinda, but think she is jealous and trying to help at the same time.
Jung Sun Ah in the Korean productions is super fun. Kristen is the best obvs.
Não importa quanto tempo passe, eu ainda não consigo tankar a Fabi namoral
Laura Bell Bundy was also the original Elle Woods in Legally Blonde The Musical. So I can only hear Elle Woods. 🤣
A once and a musical fan. Heeeeeeeeeey!
The lace front of the wig 😭😭 13:43
I love how in Korea they’re practically choking their Elphabas from excitement😭
😂
The west end cast keeping their British accents always throws me off 😂
I didn't know Kate Reindeers was in this role. I love her!
Brittney Johnson and Jenni Barber did it perfectly
All of them are amazing actually. But nothing tops the OG !
Why does it look like the same Elphaba every time?
Ali Mauzey es increíble como Glinda, la adoro
Nobody talking about Kate reinder
I gotta say, Katie Rose Clarke is my personal favorite. Her mannerisms and voice really match what I interpret Glinda to have to be.
Omg I adore Diannes, Louises and Helens accent for this song 🥰
I’ve seen Helen 7 times and she’s incredible
In the Netherlands we had Chantal Janzen in this role and she was also hilarious
i LOVE how unhinged the brazilian one is! i was able to see them last year in São Paulo and omg i laughed SO MUCH
I’m all about Annaleigh Ashford, but I adore her. Fantastic voice and amazing actress.
