And she tells U.S. news show Extra she was floored when Chenoweth performed with students from Morehouse College: "Of all the moments, that would be my all-time favourite moment. When (friend and filmmaker) Tyler Perry said a few of them (students) were here, I thought it was going to be four... I did not know it was 415. I can't believe it!"
