Well, it was only a matter of time… The conservative Christian group One Million Moms has demanded a boycott of Wicked due to its "openly queer characters and tremendous amount of witchcraft and sorcery."
The group, claiming to be one million strong despite having only 4,300 twitter followers, has started a petition and sent an email sent to its followers, saying:
"Four of the film's main characters are openly queer or gay in real life. As moms, we all want to know why Universal is attempting to desensitize our children by normalizing same-sex crushes and the LGBTQ lifestyle."
In spite of the group's misplaced hate and wasted energy Wicked is now the first movie musical adaptation to pass $300 million in the United States and is the fourth highest grossing musical of all time
