John Travolta Returning to Oscars as a Presenter
Last year, the actor flubbed the pronunciation of Idina Menzel's name.
— -- John Travolta will have a chance at redemption at this year's Academy Awards ceremony.
He's just been added as a presenter for the 87th Oscars, airing on ABC February 22.
Travolta was mercilessly mocked online after he butchered Idina Menzel's name while introducing her performance of "Let It Go" at last year's Oscars. He famously called her "Adele Dazeem."
"I've been beating myself up all day. Then I thought ... 'What would Idina Menzel say?'" he said after the fact. "She'd say, 'Let it go, let it go!' Idina is incredibly talented and I am so happy 'Frozen' took home two Oscars Sunday night!"
Jennifer Aniston, Sienna Miller, David Oyelowo, Chris Pratt and Kerry Washington have also been announced as presenters for the Academy Awards.
Neil Patrick Harris will host the ABC telecast live from Hollywood.
