Idina Menzel Wishes 'Adele Dazeem' A Happy Birthday 10 Years After Oscars Gaffe
HuffPost
The “Frozen” actor recalled John Travolta's infamous name mix-up in a cheeky video on TikTok.
Idina Menzel is acknowledging the 10th anniversary of her alter ego ― which was borne out of one of the biggest Oscar gaffes in recent memory ― with a cheeky serenade.
On Sunday, the “Frozen” actor shared a short video of herself singing “Happy Birthday” to “Adele Dazeem” on TikTok.
“I just wanted to say happy birthday. I’m sending you so much love and positive energy,” Menzel said in the clip. “I hope you have the best, best day.”
Adele Dazeem first entered the cultural lexicon during the 2014 Academy Awards ceremony, when John Travolta mispronounced Menzel’s name while introducing her performance of “Let It Go” from Disney’s “Frozen.”
“Please welcome the wickedly talented, one and only, Adele Dazeem,” said Travolta at the time, alluding to Menzel’s Tony-winning stint as Elphaba in Broadway’s “Wicked.”
