Forums / Discussion / Meme Research

For those of you that don't know what I'm talking about (which, granted, is probably a lot of you), there was a recent flub at the Oscars, courtesy of John Travolta. Travolta, as no stranger to the musical scene, took the honors of introducing Idina Menzel before she performed "Let It Go" live. However, he missed the mark entirely, and introduced her as "Adele Dazeem". He recently issued an apology for his mistake, and Idina was quick to forgive him.

That being said, the internet isn't letting Travolta off the hook so easily, and spoofs are popping up rather quickly. I think this is actually picking up steam (particularly on Tumblr), and therefore may be worthy of an article. However, at the same time, I was thinking that if it didn't, it could at least work for a hypothetical page on Idina Menzel. Come to think of it, it could also work for the Frozen page, or "Let It Go".

Here are some examples. (Sorry for linking to Perez Hilton, but you have to start somewhere with research.)

Also, relevant:

Well… It appears that Molly Horan Dazeem went ahead and added this to the Frozen article. I suppose I should get to adding to that, then!

Yes, they even have a name generator for it. I know you've already started, but by all means, go ahead!

I heard a radio DJ talk about Travolta and the generator, and I thought for certain it would find its way onto here soon.

Yeah, I saw it on my local morning news station. I knew this was memeworthy when I saw it on the news, even if it's just local.
