Actress Kristin Chenoweth made a dream come true for a former “American Idol” contestant from Middlesex County.

Jax (Jackie Miskanic), a pop singer from East Brunswick and a former "American idol" contestant who's racked up nearly half a million likes on her TikTok page, got her chance to sing with Chenoweth, her "Broadway singing idol.” Chenoweth played Glinda in "Wicked" when it first became a Broadway hit.

Jax showed a TikTok video of her singing "Popular" for a “Wicked” audition at 10 years old.

In her TikTok video, Jax says "my 10-year-old theater kid self would never believe I'd get to sing ‘Popular’ with the original Glinda when I was older.”
