John Travolta introduces Adele Dazeem

Awards nights are usually full of tension as everyone holds their breath for the announcement of the winners in the different categories. To make everyone feel a bit relaxed and to break the ice, singers and dancers usually provide entertainment for everyone. In this instance, John Travolta was tasked with introducing the nominee for Best Original Song. Idina Menzel was supposed to sing her nominated song, Let It Go.

Travolta, however, made a big mistake by introducing someone named “Adele Dazeem.” What was he thinking? Perhaps Adele was on his mind and then just mixed up the last name of the singer. It was a cringey moment because there was no degree of confusion nor hesitation on Travolta’s expression or tone, but for sure, Menzel was confused and probably embarrassed. The singer took everything in stride and got her “revenge” the following years, 2015, when he introduced Travolta as “Glom Gazingo.”
