Ariana Grande is allegedly concerned about her “Wicked” co-star Jonathan Bailey’s closeness with Scarlett Johansson. According to Rob Shuter’s exclusive report, the two ladies are feuding with each other, and their mutual friend, Bailey, is caught in the middle of it. A source explained that the argument stems from Grande, who isn’t happy with the two stars’ headline-making PDA.
Johansson and Bailey have been at the center of many viral moments since promoting their recently released film “Jurassic World Rebirth.” While their friendship has been well-received by the fans, Grande is reportedly not too happy about it. The insider told the outlet that the singer, who became close friends with Bailey during filming “Wicked,” considers him her “rock.” Moreover, she believes Johansson is “exploiting” this close bond for the cameras.
According to the source, Grande believes that “Scarlett is overshadowing Jonathan’s talent with stunts.” The “Jurassic World Rebirth” actor duo has been flaunting their friendship with red carpet smooches and numerous interviews.
Most recently, Bailey took to Instagram to share a photo of himself playfully biting his co-star’s neck. The update was a joint collaborative post between the “Bridgerton” star and the LGBTQ+ charity, The Shamless Fund. The co-stars have been open about their PDA and tight-knit friendship throughout their press tour.
Meanwhile, Grande and Bailey reportedly bonded over their theatre roots while filming “Wicked.” The singer-songwriter exclusively told PEOPLE last year that the two actors, who played love interests in the film, were “very giggly together,” which helped build their chemistry. She explained that they fell for each other as friends off-screen as well.
As of this writing, both Grande and Johansson have yet to address their rumored beef in public.
