Wtf are Tess and Claudia wearing,” remarked a third.

That’s right, viewers compared the pair to popular theatre duo, Glinda and Elphaba from the show, Wicked.

Glinda, the Good Witch of the South, famously sports pink and sparkles whilst Elphaba famously has green skin.

Another reacted: “Tess and Claudia look like Elphaba and Glinda. It’s kinda slaying.”

Ohhh, a Wicked attire homage Tess and Claudia,” exclaimed a third.

I thought they looked MAGICAL!
