WICKED stars Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo looked sensational as they reunited on the BAFTAs red carpet. Pop Star Ariana, 31, dazzled in a plunging pink and black gown as she arrived for the star-studded event in London. Cynthia, who plays Elphaba in the blockbuster adaptation of the Broadway musical Wicked, looked toned in a white floral dress with a statement chest piece rising to her neck. She flashed a big smile as she showed off her showstopper outfits while strutting the red carpet in a pair of white strappy stilettos.

The pair looked over the moon to be reunited and were seen warmly embracing each other at The Royal Festival Hall. They also smiled for a string of photos on the red carpet and posed side-by-side at the champagne reception. Ariana has been nominated for a Best Supporting Actress gong for her role as Glinda in Wicked. It has received its first award of the night as winners for several categories have been announced already.

Newly-engaed Selena Gomez wowed fans as she rocked up in a dazzling silver and black gown. The build-up to the glitzy ceremony was drama-filled in the worst possible way. A huge pre-Baftas bash at the Chiltern Firehouse was cancelled at the last minute after a devastating fire broke out at the venue - a favourite with Hollywood's elite. Guests of Netflix, including American A-listers including Selena Gomez, 32, and Zoe Saldana, 46, were thought to have suites booked at the hotel.

Wallace and Gromit creator Nick Park, CBE, is also understood to be due to check into the venue ahead of Sunday's ceremony. A source said: "This is the ultimate nightmare for Netflix and organisers. "Every year they spent tens of thousands of pounds to put on the biggest and best BAFTA afterparty around. "Right now everything hangs in the balance while they get the blaze under control and assess the damage.".
