00:01All right.

00:04Hello!

00:08So what is our day usually like?

00:10How long is makeup? How long is hair?

00:13How long is tattoo cover-up?

00:15I take the least amount of time, I think.

00:17Yes, definitely.

00:18Out of the whole cast.

00:20The one thing about these witches is they are contoured.

00:24Me and Cynthia both, we love, we love a shelf.

00:28The most amazing thing about these wigs

00:31is that Gabor has plucked each hairline on my head

00:36to make sure it's like the perfect shape, you know?

00:39Glinda's makeup kind of made me transform my entire look

00:43and my entire relationship to makeup.

00:45I just love it so much.

00:47Love, love, love.

00:49There's no like thick eyeliner.

00:51There's no like heavy crease.

00:55It's just like really warm and open and pretty.

00:59And, you know, the lashes are in like a cat shape,

01:03which still gives you the like cat eye lift that I usually love,

01:08but it's also just like a more honest representation

01:10of what you look like.

01:12It's just like, oh, this is an eye.

01:14I've always loved musicals like more than anything.

01:18Like even when I would be getting ready to do a show

01:22at Madison Square Garden, like I would get ready

01:25listening to musical theater, not listening to pop music.

01:28Like it's always been such a like part of my life,

01:31such a joyous part of my life,

01:33and it's always been my favorite thing.

01:35With Glinda, she's just so over the top

01:38and so clowny and big,

01:41but the best moments are in the subtleties.

01:45So how can we honor how loud she can be and big she can be

01:50while also translating it to what works on screen?

01:54And that's been a really fun but also like intimidating

01:58part of the process because Glinda's so beloved as is.

02:04Tattoo time.

02:06I have to cover quite a bit.

02:08My hands are pretty covered,

02:10and behind my ears there's a lot.

02:14And then it depends on the costume

02:16because sometimes I wear gloves and stuff.

02:20All right.

02:22Time to go get dressed.

02:24Bye.

02:28Glinda has arrived!

02:30Yeah!

02:34Wow!

02:36Let's go, let's go.

02:38It's good to see me, isn't it?

02:40LAUGHTER
