Idina vs. Kristin? Friends or Not?! — Page 2

Jazzy don't tell them about the romantic trips to Aruba.

I really want to know how the rumor got started because they seemed to get along fine, and on the mini-documentary on the special features of Broadway:the American Musical, Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth are rehearsing "For Good" and they're looking at each other as if they were friends in reality. I think this rumor just got started for publicity purposes.

I love it. Everyone has "sources" over the internet.

well my source is me so i don't really get you...

Right.

Whatever, think what you want, I'll think what I want, and we'll agree to disagree.

On that note, I'm going to bed.

Ive read in two different articles (and we all know that magazines are totally reliable:-P) two completely different things. One said that Idina and Kristin developed a very nice friendship. I mean even in Idina's tony speech, she told Kristin she loved her, and in a press interview where they were talking about Taye joining the cast and Kristin getting to make out with Idina's husband, Idina made a joke, and Kristin said "You better be glad I love you..." or something of the like. So maybe that is true...

But in the other, it said they had a work relationship, but not a realy "friend" ship. Who knows? I mean it'd be nice if EVERYONE on Broadway got along. But they don't.

However, on the Broadway.com video Marissa said herself that she and Laura Bell Bundy hated eachother in Hairspray, but when they both moved to LA, they started hanging out and got to be REALLY good friends. So maybe because Idina and Kristin had so much friction between their characters on-stage, they kinda channeled that in their own relationship (however, it wouldn't be such an extreme case as Marissa and Laura, because they two were in fact friends on-stage...)

Well my source told me that they had a knock down, drag out fight backstage at The Gershwin!! I have no reason to disbelieve them, as they were witness to it.

Chita, SHH!!!

Kristin and Idina played "friends."

My best friend who is very very very very very very reliable told me Idina spit in Kristin's face and then they started pulling each other's hair and Joel tried to stop them and he got punched in the face by accident...it's all true.

I have it from another good source that in fact one of them is not human. It's all very hush hush. But it's something about alien abduction and government experiments....

I know from an extremley, EXTREMLEY reliable source that Idina and Kristin are factually, and really, friendLY. They may not call eachother every 5 minutes and go shopping and junk together but they got along fine during Wicked (of course they had some rocky moments but nothing near the type of stuff that Joel Grey described on page 6 of the Post a while back). They get along just fine and there is no tension whatsoever between them. Get over it. The media blows these things out of proportion so much its not even funny. Plus, we all need to think about the original source for the "feuding" info: Page Six (GOSSIP column) of the NY Post. Not the most reliable of sources. And as for Joel Grey saying all that BS about the two arguing, the truth is that they both despised working with Grey towards the end of the OBC run. He was supposedly selfish beyond belief and amazingly concieted. Shocker. Off topic, but I heard from the same very reliable source that Grey was pissed off when he wasn't nominated for a Tony and even more annoyed when Q won and made some not-so-nice, catty remarks to cast members and crew members. But, anyway, take my word for it please. I know for a fact that Kristin and Idina get along just fine and were very close during the run of Wicked and still talk now, not a lot, but they still talk.

I have no idea what their relationship is like now, but there was definitely animosity between them during the run of the show. Call it a clash of lifestyle choices.
