"WICKED'S" IDINA MENZEL, ELPHABA, TALKS ABOUT "ENCHANTED"

[ashe984]

I loved her in Wicked

[TheBlueEYEDalice]

This video is hilarious... the beginning it seems like she is a little uncomfortable with him going on and on about Wicked, and she's supposed to be talking about Enchanted... I love how she just goes along with it. LOVE HER!

[SaphirreTears]

AHH:D "My Elphaba?">.<...Lol, She's like my Everything:D I absolutely Adore this Woman:3

[GleeGleek12]

'And He's a really good kisser' - Idina Lol Omgosh I love her <3

[phunnychicks]

I tried to hug my computer... IDINA MENZEL <333333

[famosyyo]

This is how you know she can act.. I hated her character in the movie "are you kidding? thats so romanic" I was like can someone please slap her!? :p.. I'm really upset that they deleted that scene.. it would have made so much more sence!

[famosyyo]

Lucky you! You got to meet her. When I first saw this I was like "Who's Elpheba? She wasn't the witch in the Wizard of oz? Whats going on." And Now that I've seen Wicked and I know who "Idina Menzel" Is It's like woah...I remember this...

[AbbieGreenyyyy]

I knew it! I was likeeeee oh my god! And then nobody believed that she was from wicked i was like yeahh she iss(; skillsssssss

[RavenxRobin101]

Oh I totally FORGOT Idina played the girlfriend! *facepalm*

[BonkersBecca1995x]

Love this film LOL. I went to see wicked in London on 13th October 2010 and it was sooo good. I then brought the sound track a few days later and then I saw idina menzel and I thought I no that name!!!! And I searched for her in enchanted and was like ah it is her lol

[Gigglepud]

I didn't actually know Idina Menzel was in Enchanted, and when I watched it, I'm just like... "I know her! OMG it's Idina!"

[lilsis]

Manny, I just love this :) I love her. Have you met her again since? I've met her too and she is so nice and sweet. It's strange though.. I have never seen wicked and I'm young so people think I became a fan because of it but no.. I really became a fan because of interviews! I just love her as a person. :) By chance, do you have an extended interview?

[RukisxGoldxPants]

lol I didn't notice until the second time I saw Enchanted that Idina played the guys girlfriend. wow, I feel really stupid...lol

[48sandra48]

why 10 dislikes? what's not to love about this woman? :/

[JBLoveSong]

1:53 THE RENT SIGN HAHA IRONIC?

[aSmErAeSmE]

@JBLoveSong lol, i didn't notice that. and in another part of the movie, they had Wicked sign. :)

[ninskimig123]

"I found true loves kiss, i've been with the same guy for a long time and, uhm, he was a good kiss" HAHA so sweet <3

[nellielovett026]

She's awesome. Am I weird for discovering her in this film?? Because my friend didn't know who she was when they watched Glee and I was like " that's Nancy!"...

[01BroadwayMagic]

I SAW A PICTURE OF STEPHANIE J BLOCK 

[JBLoveSong]

@01BroadwayMagic  SAME

[dancergirl0215]

I think ik what scene ur talkin about. Lol it was so funny

[AskMeEmily]

loved her in wicked even more

[courtneyjane100]

@BroadwayBabeify that was the same with me idina is like my idol now and i never knew she was in a movie that i had on my dvd shelf until one day i was watching it and i was like oh my god its idina

[amandaxthomas]

I didnt even realise she played in Enchanted untill I saw this and Im a huge RENT fan.o.<;

[flashbackmusiclexie]

he's filipino... he sounds fob haha but anyways! I LOVE YOU IDINA!!!!!

[mdelar]

@flashbackmusiclexie Not quite FOB but thanks for noticing...oh, and watching! Have a great day

[skomiyama]

she needed to sing in this movie. 

[TheEpona92]

@skomiyama i think she said she didn't want to. she was trying to be known for more than her singing in this one

[48sandra48]

she seems so...gentle. and soft-spoken.

i think quiet confidence is so incredibly attractive :))

[0HoesOverBros0]

My God she is so beautiful.

[despstud1984]

Is she as gentle as she appears?

Hope to see her next year in Glee,coz i will never be able to admire her talent otherwise since I live in Italy sob..

Who had the chance to see her and kristin in wicked is a lucky guy

[amazinggarrett1]

This host is SO annoying.

[TheSlasherFanbitch]

Shes Gorgeous

[SupernovaProds]

we watched this movie and band class and i saw her and i said thats idina menzel! and like 5 people said who is that....lol

[d0ggylover21]

idina's so freaking pretty i'm jealous. :(

[difficlty]

only sucky thing about this film was that idina didnt sing!! :)

[d0ggylover21]

@difficlty haha oh yeah huh! i totally agree with you there! XD

[marikology]

I love Enchanted, but it is a CRIME that they didn't let Idina sing at all in the movie. :(

[tucker826]

@marikology I was thinking the same thing.

[4952986]

she appears on glee episodes, as the rival choir director. but i think she`s the mother of rachel

[ohemgeegal]

wth?? that was her?!?!?!

[faith121897]

Galinnggggg! :D

[kidoliver]

@mdelar: what's your nationality?

[mdelar]

@kidoliver I'm Filipino :)

[kidoliver]

@mdelar : that's what I've thought. You did a good job! You made us proud. ;-)

[mdelar]

@kidoliver Aw...thanks :)  Marami pong salamat!

[XLouiiMariiX]

[romeinanegg]

[purplerae]

oh my, i'm so happy for you (coming from a fellow Filipino) =) i like this!

i wish i'd be able to see and talk to Idina as well someday =)

[SeptimusHeap7]

You're really funny! Great job :)

[mdelar]

@SeptimusHeap7 :) Thanks so much!

[SeptimusHeap7]

"Every new year, when the clock strikes midnight, I'm like:"Okay, this year I'm gonna defying gravity..." xD

[dericjeter2]

is it you interviewing her

[mdelar]

@dericjeter2 Yes it's me :) and she's amazing!

[phantomlover1000]

I would love to meet idina i love her to pieces and it is to bad she did not sing in ENCHANTED but she was still amazing in that role it showed off her acting chops idina Forever <3

[buenosdiers]

he's a handsome guy and when I saw him in wicked he did a great jo [playing this green witch but the girl who's interviewing him should wear a different hat. looks silly.

[romeinanegg]

I would like kill to meet her, shes so freaking fantastic.

Lucky you :)

[XdarkvampyreX]

hmmm my gaydar is beeping

[mdelar]

oh don't worry about your gaydar...it's really working! lol...but thanks for watching!

[Jellyapple67]

o she wuz the 1 who plyed the evil stepmother. I'll always remember that

[dwea89]

uhh no! that was Susan Surandon. Idina played Nancy, Dr. Dreamy's fiance :)

[JackInTheBox1616]

@dwea89 Are u sure it was his fiance? Because they didnt even do it yet, as she said in the movie

[LegallyBlonde1998]

How do you even meet these people!! i want to meet her badly!!

[mdelar]

It's through work...I'm on NBC in Palm Springs, and CW in San Francisco...and yes, I do have her info...but sorry, can't give them away :(

[meggypoo831]

That is soo cool!

[LegallyBlonde1998]

I sooooo want to meet her!!! Badly!! You are so lucky!! Reply PLZ!!

[mdelar]

I'm very lucky indeed :) She was sooo sweet! Thanks for watching :)

[LegallyBlonde1998]

Do you have her number or adress!!! LOL!! Welcome!!

[thawshatub]

you mean you finally met MY MAUREEN

[hell5309]

"I'm so glad to finally meet my Elphaba, my 'Wicked'..."

Gad, what a kiss-ass.

[mdelar]

It all came from my heart my love...I'm such a big fan of her...one of the few....and I've met many stars...but Idina is amazing! Thanks for watching!

[phantom4evr101]

to meet idina menzel would literally be a complete dream come true....please please please tell me that they are goin to be part of the cast for the wicked movie i will be jumping for joy like a crazy person

[TheMyriiZone]

Dont u find Idina looks like Nelly Furtado???

[Jcthefluteman]

qute a lot and they kinda sound similar too!

[cmart1997]

Heck yeah! Me and Mom thought She was Nelly when we watched Enchanted

[wildboy6724]

she looks like rachel from glee

[tinr54]

why did you thumb him down? she does look like lea michelle from glee!

[wildboy6724]

thank u

[pinkvespa95]

idina is prettier

[crazinikki815]

Hehe she talks about Taye and it makes me happy XD

[cacay21]

i've seen this movie one too many times... everytime, i hope and hope for Idina to sing here... They get patrick Dempsey to sing a line or two, which i didn't really notice until the third time i saw it... I sure do hope she got to sing one song... (still, i love this movie, Amy Adams was so AMAZING!!!)

[applemartinijess]

I just read that the Wicked movie will be in production in 2012 and the only actress signed on so far is Jenna Leigh Green as Nessarose. Idina will also be a reoccuring character on GLEE as the coach of the rival schools glee club!

[cacay21]

i thought Kristin Chenoweth and Idina Menzel are sure to be at the movie...?

I hope they recur their roles...

[applemartinijess]

Me too!!  I really think that if Kristin and Idina arent in it - it just wouldnt the THE Wicked Movie....

I just read on IMDB that the only one signed up so far was Jenna Leigh Green.

[kookee9]

idina and kristin better sign up!

as if they havent already D:<

[awesomechic99100]

@applemartinijess if lea michele get elphaba i am gonna be so mad thumbs up if u'll be mad to

[phantom4evr101]

yeah that is what i heard too but believe it or not a lot of fans don't want idina or kristen (cuz they are too old) which in my opinion is total BS...wicked fans wouldn't care one bit if the OBC was part of the movie...i would be thanking god if they were cast haha =D

[QuirkyQ1338]

she was also really good in RENT :)

[kwdancer94]

omg when i saw this movie in theaters i knew it was her all along but i made my friends stay with me to look at the credits just in case =] i still wish she could have sang in the movie though but she is also an amazing actress =]

[deniserogue]

i know. i wanted her to sing. and given that Stephen Schwartz was the composer/lyricist (along with Alan Menken) of Enchanted...they should have given Nancy a singing part.

[Lovergirl219]

I didn't realize at all that Idina was both Nancy and Elphaba untill after i saw clips on here of Wicked after I watched Enchanted

[slimygit89]

i didn't realize nancy (the girlfriend) in enchanted was idina menzel until glee sang defying gravity and then i looked everything up and connected bits and pieces.. i thought i knew that familiar face. ugh. i feel so stupid right now.

[iluvjonasbrothers84]

i honestly watched enchanted because idina menzel was in it

[dallywinstonfan101]

Yeah me too. When I found out she was in it I nearly went into palpatations. I couldn't believe that I had heard about this movie and never noticed. She is amazing.

[LittleMissMe2006]

@iluvjonasbrothers84 OMG me too then I watched the deleted scenes and they cut a really good one of her guted :( but its still on the dvd so thats a bonus :)

[DaughterofDarthbod08]

@iluvjonasbrothers84 i'm guilty too....

[eevee14]

I just watched this movie today because I found out she was in it :) and in one of the scenes you can see a wicked sign in the backround!

[Buildmeupbuttercup02]

Aww!! i loved when she was talking about her and Taye!! :) CUTE!

[cmart1997]

I never knew she was in Enchanted - me and my mom thought that was Nellie Furtardo (sorry if I spelled that wrong)

[jazzanie]

OMG me too! Haha!

[PercyJacksonfan01]

I feel like an idiot right now

[Jules8894]

omg i didn't no she was in enchanted!!!!!!!!!!

[emizy]

i was thinking exactly the same thing when i jst registered it! omg!

[LittleWhiteShoes]

the girlfriend!

[aewprincess]

I love her! I can't believe though she looks a lot like one of the girls in glee

[cmart1997]

I Know she looks like Rachel

[KellyGreen5555]

Great cheekbones!

[mbas97]

this guy is weird.

[mdelar]

weird is good :) thx for watching though and have a great day! Manny

[mbas97]

of course its good! it just means your creative. you should see my video, Pure Wierdness, it simply celebrates wierdness. No insultation happening. I actually kind of meant it as a complement. Let us all be wierd through and through. Bye!

[mdelar]

:) No problem!  And yes, weird is good :)

[openanotherdoor]

Grr, you're way too awesome for me Idina.

I want to say that you're my role model.

But, I can't ever live up to you.

[OmgItzPJ]

lol Idina Menzel is awesome! man, she's cool

[agdollover17]

Idina Menzel is my forever role model!

[Greermydear]

Go idina!!!!

[TwilighterFanpire123]

love her! LOVE. HER!

[LifegivesUlemonz]

she was on RENT

[BroadwayBabeify]

OMG! i never realized it was her! mostly because i didn't know the people in Wicked when i saw Enchanted.

[SpiceBaby47]

I was the same :)

[famosyyo]

@BroadwayBabeify sme... I was like OMG!!! I wasn't her fan till glee so I didn't realize..

[campinloyagirl]

@BroadwayBabeify YAH ME TOO!!!

[katieeatsrainbows]

lol dee i loved when u said that love isnt perfect right after u said uve been with the same guy (taaaaaye!!) for a long time :D

[princessUSA2]

omg! i didnt know idena was nancy! i feel so stupid! lol=)

[AbeVonThrash]

I didnt realize it was her either untill now. I have the movie on DVD so im gonna go watch it now xD

[ilovesugar2]

that's a good idea!

[shesradioactivex]

dont worry neither did i! lool x

[merder4ever33]

I recognized Idina right away.... but I screamed. Luckily I never saw it in theaters or I would have embarrassed myself lol! I love Idina! She is my idol! I know all of her songs by heart and listen to both Wicked and Rent religiously.

[chaceecraw]

So I am not the only one lol Do you know anything about the Wicked movie? I was told she didn't wanna be involved in the film but she gave an interview in lately 2008 and she said she would love to be in it. Do you know anything?

[merder4ever33]

on imdb... the internet movie database, it says she is rumored for the part of elphaba along with kristin chenoweth... one thing i will mention is that there is another actress that is rumored for the part of elphaba...

[kamarza]

I hope there want be anotherone I want her as Elphaba in the movie version and Kristine as Glinda it has to be that way.

Sorry for my english.

[xkerryandkristenx]

i'm guessing you don't really like idina ? ahaha ! jk (obviously)

[Cocona101]

same thing

[Maggle339]

WOW. I feel soo stupid. Ive seen enchanted like twice and never noticed that it was Idina........ wow. lamo

[hec24and]

Maggle339 i feel the same :S:S:S

I love her!!!

[betyaa1324]

I know i felt so stupid lol

[AlexRiderRocks]

i point out every poster in the movie and i make up lines to convey what the characters are thinking.

[musicalcat25]

I think they should have the original people in wicked the movie like Kristen and Idena

[ObsessivelyWicked]

Idina, you mean? I think they have a petition for it already...I forgot the link, though.

[TheatreFanatic4eva]

please remember it!! I need to sign it!! :)

[andawayshegoes]

...th-th-they're making a m-movie...without idina...and they're making a movie....o-oh my god...

see on one hand I was just like amazingd hearing they're making a movie but the fact that they're not using idina....... :'(

[poetscreaming04]

Does anyone besides me think Amy Adams would make a great Glinda in Wicked? Anyone? Anyone at all? lol

[kutegurl67]

me!

[SelenaRiddle]

I think so too.

[Heowa]

Yeah, me too!^^

[TurboMathKid94]

James Mardsen would be a good Fiero! .

[poetscreaming04]

Oh, definitely! In fact, the whole cast of Enchanted would probably make a great cast of Wicked...Susan Sarandon as Madame Morrible?? How awesome would that be??

[marleelee]

in the movie you see rent and wicked posters every where i thouht it was funny...

[coynie3]

lol yeah, i kept seeing trailers for wicked, seeing the wicked posters and yelling at my sister (she's a big wicked fan too) "LOOK! THERE'S A WICKED POSTER IN THIS MOVIE!!!!!"

[rubyqueen808]

I did that too! Whenever I watch the movie, I alway feel compelled to say "Wicked!" whenever I see the poster!

[KemyWins]

haha, that is funny. but hey it is new york there ARE wicked posters;)

but i love things like that..kind of double feature

[xkara08x]

:O Not only Jensen Ackles, but you got to meet Idina Menzel as well! You are sooooo lucky! Shes one of my idols! I was so shocked when she was in Enchanted as well lol...in the movie theatre I was like "Oh my god its Idina Menzel!!!". I got shushed.

[mdelar]

:)  I did the same thing for the press screening for Enchanted...I was like...yay...it's Elphaba :) Yes, I feel very blessed to have met all these fantastic folks :) HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!!! Manny

[littlekelly323]
