"I AM SO HAPPY AND HAVENT STOPPED CRYING," "Funny Girl" actress Beanie Feldstein, also Platt's best friend, commented on the post. Meanwhile, Ariana Grande, who is currently preparing for her role as "Glinda" in the movie adaptation of "Wicked," commented a flurry of face holding back tears emoji on Platt's post.
