Way too many people are mixing up Tom Cruise and John Travolta.
And linking to Examiner.com? Really?!

It does sound like his dyslexia was affecting him but that name is indelible now.
Someday at If/Then - "At tonight's performance the role of 'Elizabeth' will be played by Adele Nazeem."

HA HA! I feel horrible for Idina/Adele why couldn't John T clarify her name before walking out on stage... dummy!
The sad part is he did

Posted: 3/3/14 at 11:04amFunny how dyslexia prevents you from asking someone how to pronounce that name you can't make out clearly.

If Von Jortalto had pronounced her name correctly, the performance, as wonderful as it was, would have been over and done. But good old Adel Dazeem is getting a lot more publicity than Idina Menzel would have gotten. She needs not be mortified. Her moment was not ruined. It just has taken on another layer of interest.
His gaffe was inexcusable. If he can memorize a script he can remember one name, especially while being able to look at it on a screen. Shame to him and congratulations to the one and only IDINA MENZEL.

Borstal, YOU need to let it go. Seriously. Just let it go. Let it go. I know you don't care what they're going to say.
Travolta never bothered me anyway.

Posted: 3/3/14 at 11:32amI think we need to start a petition to get Broadway in a show with Idina Menzel and Lea Michele.

I AM letting it go, letting it go, letting it go, Jordan!
Magic snow gusts and clichéd lyrics are shooting out of my ass in frozen fractals all around.

This is actually 2 for 2 for Travolta:

that was the best worst thing that could happen.
i was so shocked that i barely registered her performance; had to rewatch it after. lol
and i don't think she's mortified at all, why would anyone assume that she is?

I don't think Idina was off balance because of the pronunciation of her name.
I think it's because she's afraid someone will ask her to define a frozen fractal.

Posted: 3/3/14 at 6:00pmIn the old days, both of them could have blamed it on spending a bit of time at the bar. What modern day award shows are missing is the drunk and the drugged. When the performers show up clean and sober, it's boring. John and Idina both should be required to give back their swag bag.

I must be living under a rock or on another planet.I think I get the inference that some are making that only 'the gays' would know who Idina is.I only know what I read of gossip about John T,nothing first hand,but glory be-the guy stuffed up-for whatever reason,do you have to be so cruel?If someone on here is a celebrity and knows what it's like to deal with demons like repressed sexuality,advancing years,insecurity-then expose yourself and I will listen,but don't hide behind your avatar and make silly bitchy remarks-have some empathy and the world will spin a lot sweeter.
Edit-'and the world will spin a lot sweeter'??? I THINK I know what that means.
Thanks-Now I stuffed it up-it's IdIna NOT IdEna-silly me.

Yeah, it legitimately distracted me from the performance and I had to go rewatch it later.
When he announced it, I legitimately thought "wait, I thought Idina Menzel was performing?"

"Legitimately" is the new "literally".
Please make a note of it.
