00:00This is like Mary Poppins' bag.
00:01It's bottom, it's like to here.
00:03Everyone is falling asleep.
00:05We're not done, we have 85 more things.
00:07I'm a child, that was ridiculous.
00:08Can we get to loose a touch-up, please?
00:11Hi Vogue, it's Ariana Grande,
00:12and this is what's in my bag.
00:14♪♪
00:19It is a Laueve bag.
00:21As you can see, it's meant for business, you know?
00:24For busy days, it can really hold a lot of stuff.
00:27The first thing is my phone,
00:28which I don't need at the moment.
00:30I have these earmuffs.
00:31When I'm walking around, they help me stay warm.
00:35I have a Ricola.
00:38This, they are all at the...
00:39Oh.
00:42They're all at the bottom of my bag,
00:45swimming around, you know the thing.
00:47But this is still here, so I'm glad,
00:49because that's useful.
00:50This, actually, I wouldn't normally have
00:52if I were singing.
00:53This is just because I'm under the weather.
00:54So I have a bunch of little lozenges in my bag.
01:00I have two different kinds of headphones,
01:03because these are, you know...
01:06Oh, and a hair clip that was stuck to that one.
01:08This is how you know it's my real bag.
01:10No one gave me this today.
01:11They didn't set this up for me.
01:12It's a shit show.
01:13That's how you can tell.
01:14So these are great if you're approving a mix,
01:17or if you're traveling, or if you need, you know, privacy.
01:20They have the noise cancellation,
01:21which is very helpful.
01:23And then I have these.
01:24I'm not an AirPods wireless person.
01:26I really like the wire.
01:28That's just my personal take.
01:31What?
01:32What am I listening to these days?
01:34Who is it?
01:35I love it.
01:36I'm listening to Dancing Through Life by Jonathan Bailey,
01:39and Something Bad by Peter Dinklage and Cynthia Erivo.
01:42I have a pair of sunglasses
01:46for accessorizing when it's bright.
01:49The key to a good pair of sunglasses would be,
01:52I don't know, whatever makes you feel cutest.
01:55Finding the right shape for your face.
01:57I'm not like a believer in any sort of trend
02:00or telling people what to wear,
02:01so whatever makes you feel most beautiful.
02:04Little essential oils.
02:05I have lavender oil, which I love to travel with,
02:08and I love to always have with me.
02:10I use this when I meditate,
02:12and if I'm ever like out and about,
02:14and I just like need a little smell,
02:17it's kind of like a sense memory.
02:19It calms you down.
02:20So since I use it when I meditate,
02:22my brain responds to the smell, and it's very good.
02:25It's calming and also just smells delicious.
02:28I love it.
02:29I got into meditation.
02:30I was kind of on and off, but I was 15,
02:33and my therapist told me to try it,
02:36and I really loved it.
02:37I really love the guided meditations.
02:39I'm a big fan of Insight Timer.
02:41That app is amazing.
02:42You can follow my playlist of Ari's favorite meditations.
02:45We have to take care of our minds.
02:46They're busy, and we have to nurture them.
02:49Oh, cool, more headphones.
02:50That's sick.
02:51Does anyone need a pair of headphones?
02:53I'm serious.
02:54That's another pair, just in case,
02:57because you never know.
02:58I would say this is the normal state of my purse.
03:00I have like, you know, I'm always working.
03:04I'm always on the go,
03:06and I try to bring my life,
03:07as much of it as I can fit in here,
03:09which brings me to my next, of course, necessity,
03:12which is this crystal ball.
03:13My friend Will Loftus,
03:15who is the associate choreographer on Wicked,
03:17gave this to me, and I kept it in Glinda's trailer,
03:19and I have it with me always,
03:22just for a little bit of magic,
03:24a little bit of her, a little bit of protection.
03:27How many more are left?
03:28If I had to guess, I would say,
03:31I would say 35.
03:34Is that what you wanted to hear?
03:36This little selenite wand, for protection as well.
03:39This was also in Glinda's dressing room.
03:41I brought it to the Panthers game in Florida
03:43when I went to visit my family, and we won,
03:45and I think it was because of this.
03:48Go Panthers.
03:49Here's some Ricolas.
03:54I just looked over at every single person,
03:56so I was like this.
03:58I'm doing a bit, I'm joking.
03:59This is my fragrance.
04:01I bring it with me everywhere.
04:03It is my own, that's embarrassing,
04:04but it's Mod Vanilla, and I love it so much.
04:06When it comes to just about everything,
04:09I'm very hands-on and very much a perfectionist,
04:12so when it comes to different fragrances,
04:15sorry, I'm looking at what my purse has been so far,
04:17and it's insane, sorry, I'm back.
04:19When I was young Glinda, I wore Cloud Pink,
04:21and then when I was older Glinda, I wore Mod Vanilla.
04:23I know it sounds silly, but it sets the time apart
04:25in my head.
04:26I chose R.E.M. because Rapid Eye Movement,
04:29and it's sort of like, it's a dream state,
04:31and I wanted the whole thing to be very ethereal,
04:33and I also wanted the whole brand, the theme,
04:38to be very focused on our eyes,
04:39because they're our main storytellers.
04:42It was all very thoughtful,
04:44not just like a song that I also love.
04:46I know it's R.E.M. and Rapid Eye Movement,
04:48Sleepy, you know, themed, but don't sleep on R.E.M. Beauty,
04:51I'm saying, people.
04:52Speaking of, this is a tester for something down the line,
04:54very exciting.
04:55It is a lip gloss.
04:58Sorry, a lot came out, but it's very pretty.
05:03I used some, but I did also wanna keep Glinda's face,
05:07I wanted her to be her own thing.
05:09Did you see what I did?
05:10This is my cross to bear, because I did this to myself.
05:13Guys, I was too nervous to say anything, so I did this.
05:16Why'd I do that?
05:18No, no, you know what?
05:19This is more than enough.
05:19This is really, you've gone above and beyond.
05:21We wanted Glinda's makeup to be very much her own look.
05:25We wanted it to be very, not contemporary,
05:28not the trends of today.
05:29We want it to be very fair, very ethereal,
05:32very blonde and sweet and pink.
05:33It was fun to find that balance.
05:35I immediately felt so connected to Glinda
05:38because of her infectious joy
05:41and the laughter in the audience.
05:42Comedy and laughter have always been my favorite things.
05:45I grew up a huge fan of comedy,
05:48and I'm a huge nerd, a big Christopher Guest, SNL fan.
05:53I just loved Glinda's effect on the audience
05:57and how much joy she brought.
06:00I love the humanness that Wicked demands from everyone.
06:06Yeah, I always loved it and felt connected to her.
06:09I can't say too much, of course,
06:14but I think the themes of unconditional love
06:16and forgiveness that are showcased in movie two
06:19are so beautiful and profound.
06:22It's a doozy, and I'll say that.
06:24I have lots of vegan snacks.
06:26This apple, pear, mango fruit roll.
06:29Lovely.
06:30This vegan bar and this other vegan bar.
06:35I'm sorry.
06:36No, I'm gonna get it.
06:39Okay.
06:40I have my iPad.
06:41When I'm traveling or when I'm waiting on set
06:44or whenever I like to play games,
06:46I play a lot of Monopoly online with strangers.
06:49It's diehard.
06:51I think I'm on level 80, I believe.
06:54I'm not kidding.
06:55I would say it's mostly for Monopoly and my virtual farm.
07:00Yes, I do that as well.
07:03It's fun.
07:03This is actually a lovely little thing
07:05that a fan gave to me at the Wicked premiere in LA.
07:09He was so sweet.
07:10He gave me this little tiny book called Ari's Pick Me Ups,
07:15and I thought that was the cutest thing in the world,
07:17and they're just random quotes
07:18that are so uplifting and sweet,
07:21and one of the pages says toss toss
07:23with bubbles that he drew everywhere.
07:26There it is.
07:27Next to a quote from Jon M. Chu.
07:29I thought it was really cute, and it's tiny,
07:30so I do keep it with me.
07:33This is a less small book, but this one's from my dad.
07:37He gave me this for Christmas last year.
07:39I love the quote on it.
07:40It says, I'm going to make everything around me beautiful.
07:42That will be my life.
07:44And then it has a note from him in it.
07:46This is your life, and it is so beautiful.
07:48Keep it going.
07:49Love, Daddy.
07:50And it's been my journal and where I work
07:52and take all my notes, and I have my schedule in here.
07:56So I always travel with this because my life is in it,
07:59but also so many fun little sentimental keepsake things
08:03are in there too.
08:04A pink marker just in case I need to do anything.
08:09I have a pink glossy bum, also by R.E.M. Beauty.
08:13I have too much on my lips.
08:14I don't care.
08:15I have one little last thing.
08:16I'm not gonna lie.
08:17A little hair clip for my indecisive little curlies
08:21that curl up and go crazy sometimes.
08:24Okay, I'm gonna load my stuff back in.
08:28Oh, sorry.
08:33All right, this was so much fun.
08:35Thank you for having me, Vogue.
08:39Bye.
