While speaking to Entertainment Weekly back in 2013, Menzel and Chenoweth insisted that the rumors were just that — rumors (via Broadway World).
"We were like sisters, together constantly. Kristin and I have the ultimate, utmost respect for each other and admiration for what each of us can do. When you work together for a year and a half, you bite — I bite my husband's head off nightly — but we were real advocates for each other and tried to protect each other and stand by each other," Menzel said.
Chenoweth agreed, saying, "We're very different actors and we don't see each other very often, but that doesn't mean there was drama."
Despite these assurances, rumors still continued to fly, leading "Watch What Happens Live!" host Andy Cohen to ask Chenoweth about these rumors when she paid a visit to the show in 2019 (via ET Canada).
"Those rumors are hilarious to me. We're very different performers and different people but we made magic together and nobody can take that from us," Chenoweth shared. "When we did the 15 year reunion, we just hugged and cried. What can I say?"
