It was rehearsed': John Travolta's creepy touchy feely behavior at the Oscars was all part of the plan ...claims his repThe awkward sight of John Travolta pawing the face of Idina Menzel at the Oscars, is one of the most talked and tweeted about moments of this year’s Academy Awards – for all the wrong reasons.
Today, Travolta’s rep has defended the actor in UsWeekly, claiming it was planned.
The Grease star, mocked last year for getting the name wrong of the Frozen singer, was jokingly introduced to the stage at the Dolby Theatre as 'My dear friend, Glom Gazingo' by Menzel.
I deserve that’, he acknowledged, before grabbing Menzel’s face by the chin for an awkwardly long time.
The strange touchy-feely moment continued with 61-year-old Travolta patting her face as she grinned uncomfortably through gritted teeth, and turned her head away.
'It was rehearsed in total,' his rep clarified today to the publication,' John Travolta loved working with Idina Menzel at the Oscars because his wife, Kelly Preston, and his daughter, Ella, were in attendance with him.'
The pair were reunited on stage to present Common and John Legend with the Best Original Song Oscar for Selma’s Glory, after last year the star of Grease fluffed her name by calling her, 'Adele Dazeem'.More Read
