Idina Menzel has taken the lyrics from her Academy Award-winning Frozen hit "Let It Go" to heart. This week she handled a potentially embarassing wardrobe malfunction.
As shown in the video above from her sold-out show Monday at Radio Music Hall, Menzel had just started singing the Rent song "Take Me or Leave Me," when she picked up on a cue from the audience that her black leather bra — visible from her sparkly, silver cut-out dress — was slip, slidin' away... revealing a little bit more than desired.
Instead of freaking out, Menzel calmly asked the crowd, "What? My boob's coming out?" After a stagehand ran on stage to assist her, Menzel did a little self-adjusting and kept her wits and sense of humor.
"Well, she was a sexy character," she said, referring to her breakout Rent role of Maureen, who coincidentally sings about people staring at her in the Jonathan Larson musical. "Is it in?" she asked after making some final adjustments.
"These divas need their stage," she proclaimed, as the crowd roared and clapped in approval.
"That's going to be all over television," added Menzel, who debuted her latest Tony-nominated Broadway role, the lead in If/Then, at the end of March. She then let loose with some language that's not quite appropriate for the Frozen crowd. "Well, f--k it, they're real."
That's not something that would come out of Elsa the Snow Queen's mouth, but fans didn't seed to mind.
