“Cynthia Erivo Shuts Down Comedian’s Shocking Nail Comment: ‘You Should Know Better!'”
Cynthia also rocked her extravagant manicure on the big screen while playing the Wicked Witch of the West.
The entertainer mentioned seeing a photo of Margaret Hamilton, the original Wicked Witch, where she’s in a shadow and has her hands raised, sporting long nails.
“When I saw it at the Academy Museum, I was reminded that nails were always a part of the character. I imagined that her nails were almost a part of her genetic makeup, that they just grew long — and like her green skin, she wasn’t sure why. I saw her nails as being part of the magic that she hadn’t discovered yet.”

Last week, Cynthia made headlines for a response to a fashion reporter that many netizens labeled as “rude.”
After the reporter, who goes by Mystery Fashionist, asked her and her Wicked co-star Ariana Grande to rate each other’s outfits, he shifted the focus of the interview, asking, “What is a common misconception about y’all?”
“I don’t know what the common misconception is at all. That’s not a fashion question,” Cynthia replied.
A fan complimented Cynthia’s nails, saying they’re obsessed with her “magical” style
