Kristin Chenoweth to Talk Failed Romances & Her Wild Childhood on Oprah: Where Are They Now?
By admin on
Chenoweth will reprise the role of eccentric performer April Rhodes on the 100th episode of Glee. She won a Tony for her performance in You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown and an Emmy for Pushing Daisies. Her additional Broadway credits include Wicked, Promises, Promises, The Apple Tree, Epic Proportions and Steel Pier—we’re keeping our fingers crossed that we’ll see her in a rumored production of Hello, Dolly! within the next two years. Star Files View Comments Well, we obviously know what Kristin Chenoweth has been up to for the last few years (starring on GCB, saying Yes to the Dress and performing sold out concerts, of course), but we’re not complaining that she is set to appear on the newest episode of OWN’s Oprah: Where Are They Now. The Tony-winning dynamo will feature alongside Gary Busey and the fab five from Queer Eye For the Straight Guy on January 3.
On the new episode, Chenoweth will chat with Oprah about her bad girl childhood and almost making the trip to the altar. Twice. The series, which debuted in October 2012, reunites viewers with The Oprah Winfrey Show’s most popular guests to get updates and stories about their current lives. Judging by the teaser video below, it looks like we’ll be getting a cameo by adorable pup Maddie, too! Kristin Chenoweth

View Comments See, they are friends! Kristin Chenoweth stopped by Watch What Happens Live on April 14 and shared with Andy Cohen her side of the whole John Travolta flub surrounding Wicked gal-pal Idina Menzel at the Oscars. “I was so excited for Idina to get to sing her big song,” she said. “A lot of people know who Idina Menzel is. But those people who didn’t now do.” Aw. Adele Dazeem and Christian Chenowitz, you two make a great pair. The Tony winner also reiterated that by the time the Wicked movie finally rolls around, she’d be up for playing Madame Morrible (we’ll take it!). Later on, Cheno revealed that, sadly, NBC has not (yet) approached her to play Peter in the upcoming live broadcast of Peter Pan. Come on, network execs, she already knows how to fly, albeit by bubble! Take a look at the clips from her appearance below. Star Files Kristin Chenoweth Idina Menzel
