Singer Idina Menzel says she is not annoyed with John Travolta's embarrassing gaffe at the Oscars, where he mispronounced her name at the 86th Academy Awards.
While introducing the 42-year-old singer at the Oscars this year, Travolta had mispronounced her name as 'Adele Dazeem', reported Ace Showbiz.
"That threw me for a minute, but then I just got back on track and reminded myself of where I was. He was really gracious and sent this gorgeous email, and we're buddies and it's all cool. Please. I mean, I've only benefited from it," Menzel said.
However the 'Pulp Fiction' actor, who had apologised to the singer for his mistake had earlier said that he hoped that the Broadway star would forgive him for the blunder.
