“Frozen” won two Oscars, but three awards on Sunday night, if you count Best Instant Meme.

Travolta, no stranger to awards shows, seemed to get totally tongue tied when it was time to say the Tony-winner’s name. Whatever the case, the sound that came out of his mouth, “Adele Dazeem,” (or, something like it) sounded nothing like Idina Menzel.

Mispronouncing “Idina Menzel” is, like, the cruelest way to deal with gay rumors.

John Travolta‘s gonna be embarrassed when he finds out about everything he’s done in his life.
