Award winning singer and actress Idina Menzel spoke to Access Hollywood about her upcoming World Concert Tour and teased what the set list may look like.

"I like to do all kinds of music, I'm inspired by all kinds of music," shared the 'If/Then' star. Along with jazz and rock songs, Menzel also revealed that her concerts will feature well-known Broadway tunes which fans would "be mad if I didn't sing." Check out the interview in full below!

Menzel rose to prominence when she originated the role of Maureen Johnson in the hit Broadway musical Rent, a role which she reprised for the 2005 feature film adaptation of the musical. She received a Tony Award nomination in 1996 for her performance in Rent.

In 2004, she won the Tony Award for Best Leading Actress in a Musical for originating the role of Elphaba in the blockbuster Broadway musicalWicked. She made her return to Broadway in the 2014 musical If/Then. She is currently a nominee for the 2014 Tony Award for Best Leading Actress in a Musical for her performance.

Menzel is also known for her recurring role of Shelby Corcoran on the musical comedy-drama television series Glee, the 2007 Disney movie Enchanted and as THE VOICE of Elsa the Snow Queen in the 2013 Disney animated film Frozen, which is the highest-grossing animated film of all time, in which she sang the Academy Award-winning song "Let It Go". The song peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Solo albums include Barefoot At The Symphony (a live recording of her PBS special by the same name), I Stand, Here, and Still I Can't Be Still. She recently starred in If/Then at Broadway's Richard Rodgers Theatre.
