Wicked
Playing Madame Morrible in the movie musical required the Oscar winner to sing live on screen for the first time – which she wasn't exactly at ease with.
Director Jon M Chu apparently received "many calls" from one Wicked superfan about appearing in the film.
The filmmaker is sticking to his guns, no matter what fans of the musical have to say about it.
Ariana's boyfriend Ethan Slater was also seen "ripping his shirt off" in the deleted sequence.
The Oscar nominee already has a "dream role" in mind.
"I wish that was in," the Oscar nominee admitted.
And the singer herself is going to be "very involved" in bringing her story to life.
"I'm scared," Nikki Glaser told the Golden Globes audience members.
The Wicked star paid homage to the movie in a low-key way with her first awards season ensemble.
