I have goosebumps.
I'm such a fan of yours.
Hi!
It's so nice to see you.
And you're doing an amazing job.
Oh, that's nice of you.
It's a little--
I'm just going to-- can we sit on this, so nobody--
Yeah, well, that's the thing--
you often been scared here.
He can't come out.
I want you to--
Can I just do it all the whole time?
Just sit up there.
Actually do.
Is that fine?
Is that legal?
You already checked it out though, right?
I checked it out.
The scare is gone.
I almost peed my pants the last time I was here.
I know.
Are you easily scared?
--scared the you-know-what out of me.
Yeah, right.
No, I'm not that--
I'm not-- oh yeah, there.
I'm not easily scared, but that really got me.
I can't believe I'm talking to you right now, because I'm
a huge fan of yours.
I used to run to Wicked.
I would sing along and think I could sing as well as you.
Were you singing "Defying Gravity"?
What were--
Yeah, "Defying Gravity."
That's what it was.
And it wasn't as good as you.
I'll just say it.
It wasn't as good.
But you probably ran a lot of miles.
Yes!
It's a long song.
So I ran very fast.
And powerfully.
Congratulations.
You just got a star on the Walk of Fame.
Oh, thank you.
[APPLAUSE]
I got it next to Kristen Bell, my Frozen sister.
Yes.
Well-deserved.
Thank you, thank you.
You're in two different films right now.
Yeah.
As you saw, that one is very dark.
And I'm not playing an Elsa type of character in that one.
But it was actually so much fun off-camera.
Because it's Adam Sandler, and he's
just the most amazing, generous, fun guy.
And everybody should go see it, because he's so good in it.
And I hate that--
you know, funny people--
I don't know how you feel about this,
but it's always a surprise that they
can be really great in a drama.
Yes!
But comedians, you're the most brave, courageous artists
I know.
You stand out there and open your soul up, and take a risk.
And--
They are!
Yeah!
He is!
I feel like Steve Carell also does an amazing job doing that.
And what is the-- tell me about this movie.
Tell me who you play in it.
He's-- OK, what's it called?
Uncut Gems.
[LAUGHS] He's like the guy that sells
bling to all the athletes and the rappers.
And he's also a really bad gambler.
And he's just a guy that really wants to win in life.
And I play his wife, who he's kind of cheating on.
Not kind of.
He's cheating on.
And she's the only one in his life
that really tells the truth.
And I've seen audiences--
I've been in the audience while people have been watching it,
and they tend to like my character,
only because she says exactly what they
want to say to the character.
And how was it working with Adam Sandler?
No, it's great.
He brought in like a boombox to set.
And he played "Defying Gravity"--
Oh stop--
And it embarrassed me.
Yeah.
But it's a tribute as well.
He DJs the whole time, because he wants the crew
to just relax and have fun.
So he's always playing music.
That's so-- and also, I want to ask you
if there will be-- because I have
to-- will there be a Frozen 3?
I hope so.
I mean, I don't know.
I mean--
[APPLAUSE]
Frozen 2 is doing OK right now.
It's doing OK.
Yeah.
Do you want to be in it?
Yes, that's what I'm getting at.
Can I be in it?
We would love that.
What do you want to play?
A character like a new little--
A new little redheaded snowball.
Yes!
You will be performing later some new songs
from your Christmas CD.
Do you have any great holiday traditions that you love?
I do.
I am a nice Jewish girl who likes to collect ornaments.
Of course.
I try to collect them wherever I am in the world, on tour,
on my travels.
And so that's my favorite thing to do.
I'm actually going to go home and decorate
the tree after I leave here.
Oh, well, I have a little something maybe
you could put on the top of that tree--
Perfect!
Ellie DeGeneres Show.
Uh-oh.
Oh my God!
That's hysterical!
[APPLAUSE]
I'm sure Ellen will love that.
I was looking at it, I was like, gosh, something
seems a little wrong with that.
It's perfect.
In many ways, yes, you're not wrong.
I love it.
I will savor it and remember it every year--
Thank you!
Oh my gosh.
--that we had this moment together.
[INAUDIBLE]
The way you just said that, "we had
this moment," now when I listen to "Defying
Gravity," [INAUDIBLE].
Put it on as an earring.
A little bling.
Don't come out!
Is it going to come out here?
The name of Idina's CD is Christmas, a Season of Love.
Everyone in the audience is getting a copy!
