I wonder if Ariana Grande will lose her tan for this. She is way to tan to play the innocent white girl character. (Sorry I was just watching one of her music videos)

God, I hope they don't drop the ball on this. The Comic Sans font in the background is pretty painful ![]()

In any case Ariana uses effing spray tan LOL. She was white as a lily when she was doing that awful nickelodeon show . Her skin magically darkened when her music career blew up Lol.

No, all the photos of Ephraim with his eyes open were destroyed in a fire. The only one left was the one they used.
Word is that he will have his eyes open during the live broadcast, though.

It's a character choice, adding more layers to the opening line of "Run And Tell That". I can't see... like literally!

From that interview:
Meron: Grease Live basically honored us, in terms of doing it live and then taking what we’ve done and putting their own mark on it.
Lol...If by honoring & putting their own mark on it, he means completely showing them up & schooling them on how it should have been done all along...

Weird that they're saying that Penny doesn't sing until the end of the show. "Without Love" happens just slightly after the halfway point.
