Idina Menzel Interview

[ClassicMovieClub]

Anyone else been a fan of Idina since August 2006?

I remember seeing this interview and saying I have to see her in this show!

I did and then thought she is the most amazing thing ever

I still think that.

Hurray for Fanzels!

[DEgreeniFYgravity]

"I have a biography?" LOL! I love Idina Men-ZEL, I hate these two.

[elphabagalindafiyero]

They're SOOO obnoxious, but Idina Menzel makes up for them with her WICKED awesomeness!

[rufuswinston]

she looks so pretty, i love her hair !

[chikarebelde1]

Idina looks so pretty heree!

♥♥♥

i love herrr!!!

[GreysFan92]

I love her hair in this!

[TibetKanagawa]

OH, how I can't stand Richard and Judy.

[RoryGilmore669]

I agree

[hAwAiiAnSuNsEt101]

Geez. You'd think people would be able to say her name by now. LOL Plus when they played that recording at the beginning they cut part of the end out. Plus Her hair looks weird, but I like it. LOL =D

[lizanoel]

i hate that cause elphaba was never nasty and mean lady!

[idinakristinwicked]

the sound isnt in sync with the video sometimes

[KTRN80]

omg I hate when people prounounce peoople's names wrong!! Probably it happens to me ALL the time. *grr*

[Elphelise]

"why are we frightnened of powerful women with powers?"

Seriously.

[Wicked778]

she is amazing love her.

[Nicole8815]

I hate it when the intervewer (hint hint richard) keep butting in/talking more than the guest!. Its so annoying!

[chocolatescones]

This isn't on BBC it's channel 4, but yey Idina!

[BroadwayGirl826]

Idina Men-ZEL not Menzul, that's a major pet peeve of mine to be honest...

[MzCharmedFan0214]

I love IDINA!!! She's not afraid to be real. I love her to death, she's a brilliant performer.. damn, her cheekbones are soo defined, it's so great.

[MidgetLoving420]

Her hair looks beautiful.

[XxrosiebeexX]

i love how they've got 'star of wicked'!! i love idina xo

[flutequeen84]

Groan...it's men-ZEL! She's probably developed some serious immunity to being mispronounced. Like myself. Anyway, I love her hair like that, she should wear it that way more often. Cept for that first slip-up, I love the British accents.

[MzCharmedFan0214]

I know, i hate it when people say her name wrong, it's not that hard!! but, idina is way too cool to correct them.. she goes with the flow..

[iSpeakGilmore13]

Yeah. She's too cool to correct them. She just legally changes the way she spells her name. Lol!!

[MzCharmedFan0214]

i love idina menzel.. she's so my idol!!!

[babygirlviks]

grrr i hate richard n judy!! its a shame idina couldnt of gone on paul o grady or summin instead!!

[Elphelise]

why didnt they show the london trailer?

[idinakristinwicked]

it probaly wasnt done yet

[WickedRENThead20]

Did anyone else notice that those Idina pictures and the one of her and Fiyero were all the OBC, not West End?

And I must say, I adore her name when it's said with an English accent.

[idinakristinwicked]

thts cause the show hadnt started

[cooltastikmadi]

i love love love love love love love love love love love times a million and thirteen more, idina menzel. she is my idol!

[FanartFanatic]

She has a nice voice.

[born2toss]

I <3 IDINA MENZEL!!!!!!

and her bangs!

[SarahIdinaPhreakx3]

Erm, I'd just like to make a comment and say that Im from London and this recording is not from BBC, its from Channel 4.

[elphebagalinda]

go Idina Menzel! I want to go to Broadway when I'm old enough to have a job (I'm 11 now) She and Kristen Chenoweth are two of my favorite Broadway stars.

[AshleyTisdale196]

[sexylove7411]

[SinginBrodwayBaby]

LOL, I listened to the Wicked OBC soundtrack, and she became my Queen and career Idol!

[dancindeedee2]

I want to be here when I grow up! = ]]

Can you say perfect hero!

[sexylove1477]

I saw her first in RENT, and she was GORGEOUS.. and now in WICKED.. she became my Queen.. really good :)

[actressoftheyear2006]

with a little dog too!

[FinalFantasyTux]

There's so much interrupting going on, I'm almost uncomfortable for ALL of them!!! Hahaha

[UnnaturallyGreen]

"Can we talk while this is on?" hahahaha, gotta luv Idina!!

[NoDayButToday552]

(gasp) Idina was trained classically? wooooow... she seems like a pop singer from head to toe! hahaha

[ElphieandMaureen]

Lol nooooo. I forget where, but I remember reading somewhere that she was trained classical. I agree-- she does seem popish -- but at the smae time, not popish. You know what I mean?

[powerfulpowerzz]

great review! i was so sorry to see idina go!

[xicklemissstephx]

Judy said Menzel wrong!The video alone is enough to get anyone obsessed!I love the show!Idina is so much prettier than Margaret Hamilton.Ooo I didnt know Elphaba came from L.Frank Baum. I wasn't in tears when I saw Wicked but it actually has changed my life. Thankyou for posting!

[Gabrielle32]

i know! i hat people that say it like that! she's too polite to say anything!

[schnauzerpup]

Just to let you know that Indina is in London at the moment doing WICKED!I got to see her....but Kirstin Chenoworth wasn't glinda!

[DEFYYxGRAVITy]

Chenoweth. WETH. Thankyou.

[Omichitje]

you can see wicked..!:O

I couldn't see Wicked, because I live in neither UK nor America.. buh..

[Aurora7]

I hate Richard so much. But A nice interview with Indina nonetheless.

[rn1314]

NO I NEVVERR GOT TO SEEE HERRRRRRRRR

im so fukkin maddd

is she ever gonna do a revival or sumthing?

[WickedForLife]

aww i love this interview! and i think her hair looks nice with a fringe especially when it is straightened!! cannot believe she is gone!!

[toddybee]

Will Idina be Elphie agen? Either in the US or Britain? I totally missed the chance to go and see her and am fucking kicking myself for not being able to! I am however going to see WICKED in january but gutted it wont be Idina! I love her! xx

[flutesinger262]

no I don't think she'll ever do the role on stage again, but if they make a movie soon she might do that.

[BrideofthePhantom]

I went to see it two days ago! Just the most amazing show ever, I still have yet to recover!

[iloveshoshanna]

doesnt matter whether your in school or not ive seen wicked 20 times already and im only 13 great i love idina menzel she's wicked! lol

[gcdj25]

OMG im so lucky im going to see wicked in london tomorrow! and idina menzel will be there! it's gunna be amazing! i bet your all jealous :P

[dreamer2611]

Wicked is THE BEST Musical ever, and Idina is what makes it, it won't be the same when she leaves ina few days. Amazing.

[Jamey8495]

i wish i could see wicked, but im still in skool : (

[BrideofthePhantom]

I'm going to see her the day before she leaves London!

[idina71]

Aww she's lovely! I really wish I could meet her! She's so easily likeable

[XoXoWiCkEdXoXo]

she's leaving at the end of december though :(

[BrideofthePhantom]

I WILL see this woman play Elphaba!

which means I have until Jan, seeing as I live in England...

[jessifish02]

i've seen idina perform twice. once in san francisco in 2003 and once recently in London. she is fantastic. i've seen Wicked 4 times, with 3 different Elphabas, and i have to say, Idina is the best Elphaba i've seen yet! her Defying Gravity is the best i've heard and she's brilliant! i truly LOVE idina's acting ability!

[elfiyero]

she looks really pretty and young (not that she's old!) with bangs.

she's so cool.

[BeautifulMess81]

"...for when we have that affair", at the end. LOL.

[Devonwood]

"I didn't know I had a biography." XD Idina is so cute. Great interview.

[katetuer]

richard and judy have never been on the bbc! (this is channel 4)

Thanks for posting tho - I never see it when they have good guests either!

[mikka2005]

Love the bangs. Look how hot she looks! I saw her at the stage door, she was just perfect and after too shows!! My sister was blown away and shes not even a fan, lol.

[fatgirlgrobie]

no no no....sometimes the american accent will swallow the "d" when said fast..we just roll over it. i have heard her do that before..

[TRWolf]

And why did they edit the "Bring me down" line? It became "bring meOWN!"

[Ambyrhawke]

They cut from the first "bring me down" over to the "ahh" part at the end in order to get the chorus's final notes into the clip. You can hear the overlap of the two clips.

[ApreciousIngenue]

Idina's always so modest in interviews, I love it!

[musicrush05]

Eh. Bangs.

[U2Bwatcher]

I love Idina. Thanks so much for sharing this vid.

[Ravensclaw123]

Richard and Judy are funny. In many ways. I saw Idina Menzel perform on the 16th in London and Wicked rocked.

[Jarrod005]

i hate her bangs

[ariroxs]

same... i like the wavy look like from the MTV hits/ Craig ferg interviews

[Jarrod005]

especialy on the wicked london website there pics of rehersals and sometimes she can just look like so disgusting but sometimes shes gorgeous its anoying

[TRWolf]

We call it a "fringe" in the UK. Bangs seems odd, lol.

[PrincessLychee]

What the hell are bangs? TALK ENGLIGH

[Jarrod005]

...you dont know what bangs are? or a fringe?

[PrincessLychee]

of course i know what a fringe is, why call it bangs?

[Jarrod005]

its what we call them in the us...im guessing you call it fringe cause your in the uk like trwolf

[TRWolf]

Well a fringe makes more sense, as its a fringe of hair, but "bangs" is a bit obscure, even I dont know the reasoning there.

[BENBOY2006]

She looks beautiful....we've got to get some more London video up, because that one clip with the horrible sampling noise, is just not cuttin' it!

[julesreverie]

She looks like Anne Hathaway with that haircut

[catlester]

ooooh i'm so glad you put it up here, one of the ONLY times richard and judy has a decent guest on and i missed it. THANKSSSS

[xfavriteacidentx]
