John Travolta messes up at the Oscars

John Travolta had to introduce Idina Menzel’s performance of Let It Go from the animated film Frozen, at last night’s Academy Awards.

 

But when he came to pronounce the star’s name he managed to completely stuff it up! 

 

He introduced Idina Menzel as "Adele Dazim".

 

Travolta went along with it and didn’t even try correct himself!

 

We are not sure if Menzel didn’t hear Travolta mispronouncing her name but she took the stage without correcting him.

 

What was she supposed to do? Call him out?

Shame poor Travolta!

 

Do you think he forgot to read his notes before taking the stage or just completely mispronounced her name without even realising?
