Gen Z loves to take things they see online and say them over and over again, and Michelle Yeoh has definitely found hers: “Madame Morrible, flip it around, Wicked Witch!” And if you haven’t heard it yet, then get ready — because it’s everywhere.
After two films playing the role of Madame Morrible in Wicked: For Good, Yeoh has taken some time to reflect on her character. She has even come up with a fun little play on words, where she holds up two M’s for Madame Morrible, and then flips them upside down. What do you get? WW — Wicked Witch! Because at the end of the day, Madame Morrible is the real wicked witch. Get it?
This little phrase was cute at first, but now, it’s on the road to becoming a dad joke taken to new extremes. From late-night shows to red carpet interviews, Yeoh cannot get enough of repeating her own joke. TikTok comment sections are even calling it “her 67.”
The Wicked: For Good press tour has resulted in some interesting, meme-able moments, but Madame Morrible’s new phrase definitely comes out on top. Last year, we held space for Defying Gravity. Now, it’s all about Madame Morrible. Here are some of the funniest “Madame Morrible, flip it around, Wicked Witch” memes I’ve seen so far.
