She was introduced with the Frozen connection before she did the anthem at the MLB All-Star Game too on FOX last month.

And actually, I just got the OBCR of If/Then from Amazon today (CD) & the sticker on it says:

Starring:

IDINA MENZEL

The Voice of "Let It Go" from Disney's Frozen

Lead Actress Tony Winner for Wicked

Starred in Original Broadway Cast of RENT.


I second your Jack Black pick!

Or AlanScott's Norbert suggestion a few days ago.

Or the Jonah Hill one somewhere in this thread.

Yes, but "Let It Go" is the Disney anthem of this generation, and Idina has been lucky to be attached to it very front and center, partly because the movie version outperformed the radio/pop version by leagues and leagues.

Olaf, though, is arguably a generic sidekick with a half-decent song. Nathan Lane and Ernie Sabella were able to get some mileage out of Timon and Pumba, but those were the rare sidekicks who really make a strong impression on the audience - they were being written about in Entertainment Weekly. Josh Gad isn't getting the same attention.

Josh is being written bout in Enteretainment Weekly too. In fact, they announced the birth of his daughter. Mormon/Fozen star becomes a father again.
