Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo recreated their viral "holding space" meme at the 2025 Golden Globes. During the event, host Nikki Glaser asked Grande to "hold my finger," prompting Erivo to intervene and offer her own finger instead. The original meme emerged during the promotion of their film "Wicked," where Grande held Erivo's finger as a gesture of support. This moment resonated with fans and became widely shared on social media in late 2024. At the Golden Globes, "Wicked" won the award for Cinematic and Box Office Achievement, but both Grande and Erivo did not win their respective acting categories.
