Added to the new IdinaMenzel.com is the Official Idina Menzel Message Board, which you can visit and join here. It’s just getting started, but I’m sure you all will make it lively and active in no time at all!

Yours truly has also been asked to act as a Moderator on the new board, so I will be doing my part to add news and answer questions. Feel free to send a PM to my username, Kim, if you have any questions. I’m also on the So Beautiful Fan Forum, username: StarbuckQAF. Hope to see you on both!

Finally, Disney has released some good promotional stills online from Enchanted that actually feature Idina! I’ve added the two images below to the Gallery, and am currently looking for good quality versions of a few pictures that were featured in a children’s book on the film. The scans I received just weren’t doing the images justice, so hopefully I’ll be able to add those to the album soon!

On another note: Remember to go to Idina’s newly updated official site to sign up for the mailing list and to create a fan profile!

Hey everyone! I know you all have been as curious as I was about what exactly happened with Idina’s reported song in Enchanted. I hurriedly contacted one of Idina’s managers, and she was extremely helpful in finding out what went down. To quote her:

“Actually Idina’s character was never intended to sing but because it was Idina the producers played around with a song for her. Ultimately it was abandoned because the number didn’t serve the story. I got the expectation that Idina would sing but I’m happy to report she was hired for her acting chops. The film is great and she’s thrilled to be a part of it.”

Thanks so much to Heather for keeping us posted. It’s nice to know that the decision was made for the betterment of the film. Maybe we’ll see something about the cut song on the DVD’s special features. *fingers crossed*

I just discovered that, for some reason unbeknownst to be, the release of the Beowulf movie soundtrack as been pushed back to December 4, 2007. The movie can still be seen starting November 16th, which means Idina’s song during the credits can be heard beginning then too – you’ll just have to go and see it! Sad, I was looking forward to it coming out in a couple weeks, but alas, what can you do??

Also, some good and bad news on the topic of Enchanted…

Good news: you can now preview the entire Enchanted movie soundtrack on the film’s official MySpace…
Bad news: it looks like Idina’s song, which she recorded for the film, is not featured on the CD (and apparently, was cut out of the film.) I’m not sure why this is, if it was just replaced by another song by another artist or what, but I promise I’ll find out as much as I can. I’m just as disappointed as you all, since I know we were so looking forward to hearing her sing in the movie.
