Idina Menzel is the latest celeb to take to Instagram with a naked photo, all in aid of Wicked's 20th anniversary.

The actor took to her social media grid to post a nude photo from the bath, lounging in green water, along with the caption, "In celebration of #WICKED20, @idinamenzel and @kchenoweth look back on originating the iconic roles of Elphaba and Glinda with @NYMag. 💚"

Yep, Wicked the musical is a whole two decades old, after first airing on 10th June in 2003. Idina Menzel played Elphaba while Kristin Chenoweth played Glinda the good witch.

Fans in the comments were obsessed with the stars reuniting, and the photoshoot. "Iconic," one person wrote, while another put, "OMG!!! 💚💚💚" Someone else said, "This is iconic. 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌" while a fourth wrote, "Screaming, crying, melting 💖💚" and a fifth added, "LEGENDARY!!"

Others pointed out that Elphaba would probably melt by going in the water, while others questioned whether witches take baths at all (lol). In the Vulture interview, Idina looked back on becoming Elphaba for the first time, and what it was like when she was turned green.

"I think for a lot of women who are known to be larger than life, who fill a room, there’s this thing of wanting to be seen and loving the attention and appreciation for our gifts but also, when people are actually looking at you, feeling terrified and vulnerable. That’s Elphaba’s whole journey.

"For me, it was the same thing. Everyone was staring at me that day and they were giving me such love, telling me how beautiful I looked. And there were so many thoughts going through my head. I was excited to be doing this role and I was thinking, 'Am I stealing focus here?' and 'Is that okay?' All those things. As women, we want to own something, but fear that’s off-putting. Can we love ourselves?"
