Cynthia Erivo set to reprise Elphaba role in SNL UK sketch tonight as Wicked star hosts live show
Cynthia Erivo has made her debut on SNL UK, and fans reckon the show's Nigerian take on Wicked might be difficult to top.
The actor stepped into Glinda's shoes for the skit, Nigerian Wicked: LGBTQ, starring alongside Ayoade Bamgboye as Elphaba.
Before meeting the Wizard (played by Hammed Animashaun), the pair get close to sharing a kiss, before turning their attention to what they want from him.
Glinda asks for a Hermes Birkin, while Elphaba requests a "skinny BBL that defies gravity".
