sure we know they’re talented but did
you know they could sing bury me and
straightly shoes welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down our picks for the top 10 actors who
are unexpectedly good singers
save me from
for this list we’re looking at
celebrities who became famous thanks to
their acting chops what surprised us
later on in their careers by showing off
a wicked set of pipes
and as the title suggests we’re really
focusing on actors we were surprised to
learn could sing so a guy like Hugh
Jackman wouldn’t make the cut because
we’ve been seeing him croon for years oh
hi
number 10 Zachary Levi my boy no fine
I’m fine I’m black
although the fan demanded musical
episode of Zachary Levi spy comedy Chuck
never actually happened thanks for
thinking outside the box on that one
Levi’s co-stars often commented that he
would sing between takes to kill the
hours the hell did he learn that and
we’re guessing they didn’t mind he got a
chance to show off his pipes both in the
Disney film tangled too soon and while
starring in a Broadway production if I
don’t try
just a fartist thing might go
and based on his clear talent we’re
excited to see more surrounded by
enormous piles of money
number nine Hugh Laurie got my sperm
test tomorrow and my pot is on the shell
he’s a cold sadistic doctor how sweet no
he’s a light-hearted comedian with a
passion for music she was a low-down she
walls the roughest toughest frail but
many had a hob the Bigelow away though
he only rarely got to show off his
musical abilities on his hit TV show
house
you may be surprised to learn that this
British actor not only sings but also
plays multiple instruments I went down
to sit James infirmary Laurie small
screen success allowed him to join the
appropriately named band from TV a
charity musical group comprised of TV
personalities in the house no pun
intended
I got a song ain’t got no melody
come on imma gonna sing it to my friend
but Lori’s so good we pay to listen to
him which we can as he’s released a
couple of albums why let he lead a life
of misery when you don’t care a bag of
rings for me so one chain
number eight Anna Kendrick mama things
I’m living in a convent though she
started her career on Broadway I drink
champagne from a slipper you drink water
from a Dipper and took on musical roles
early in her professional life this
actress remained largely off our radars
until her oscar-nominated and non
singing role in 2009’s up in the air
when I came to Craig three months ago
with this he told me in quite astutely
it’s only a problem if you have a
solution however it wasn’t until 2012
when she starred and pitch perfect that
she showed off her singing talents for a
wide audience and boy are we glad she
did her contributions to the film’s
female acapella group along with the
radio play of her own hit single cups
have cemented hers as a singing voice
not to be forgotten when I’m gone you’re
gonna miss me when I’m gone you’re gonna
miss me by my walk you’re gonna miss me
by my talk oh you’re gonna miss me when
I’m gone
number seven Robert Pattinson
whether you love him for his role as
Cedric Diggory or hate him for playing a
certain sparkly vampire beautiful you
can’t deny that when he steps up to a
microphone Rob Pattinson kills it the
young British actor has a soft crooning
voice that’s got a smoky yet soothing
texture to it and not only does he sing
play piano and guitar he also writes his
own music say aye
and he got to show off his singing and
songwriting talents on the twilight
soundtrack maybe if the whole acting
thing doesn’t work out our pats could
consider a career in music
number six Chris Pine you got it this is
Captain James T Kirk of the USS
Enterprise coming to you with a love
ballad to you sounds weird right but
when this Starfleet captain opens his
mouth it’s more than just headings and
orders
the new Jack Ryan is a surprisingly
excellent vocalist which he showed off
in some indie films and on Jimmy Kimmel
let me see what spring is like on
Jupiter and Mars and talk about perfect
casting he was also given the singing
role of Prince Charming in Disney’s into
the woods I was raised to be charming
not sincere alongside musical veterans
like Meryl Streep and Johnny Depp but we
still like to see Captain Kirk do some
karaoke or something yeah I’ll try
number 5
Oscar Isaac once a vocalist and
guitarist for a small time Miami based
ban Isaac gained well-deserved
recognition with films like The Bourne
Legacy and Drive that’s very nice that’s
nice here thank you where we did not get
to see his musical prowess okay Giroux
parts of Arkansas that’s why we were
more than a little blown away when in
2013’s inside Llewyn Davis he let it rip
as a down-and-out folk singer struggling
to get by in the early 1960s
I’d fly River to
the Juilliard grad has definitely got it
whether or not he’ll be able to show off
his talents in Star Wars Episode seven
remains to be seen
iron my key and I hate my way number
four Colin Farrell lookout cleveland
storm is coming through this irish bad
boy may have made a name for himself
playing hardened tough guys and films
like swat i’m not a doctor but audiences
were lucky enough to see a softer side
of ferrell when he was playing second
fiddle or guitar rather to jeff bridges
in 2009’s Crazy Heart
this is the UH this is the autograph you
need he’s got the American accent down
and when he’s using it to sing some
country we couldn’t ask for more
stop acting like of course
that could be me sure he may have
unsuccessfully tried out for the famed
Irish boyband Boyzone at one point but
we won’t hold that against him
number three Kevin Spacey there’s
nothing between you and an audience but
but a microphone
it’s like strapping yourself to a
locomotive Spacey was a late bloomer in
terms of gaining Fame in Hollywood and
the same can be said for a singing
career sing me something after blessing
us with his talents and iconic roles
like Lester Burnham in American Beauty
and someone in the usual suspect and me
the keys you’ve been cocksucker Spacey
co-wrote directed co-produced and
starred in his own passion project about
famous American singer Bobby Darin and
lent his singing voice to the role
somewhere beyond the sea somewhere
waiting for me my lover stands on golden
sands and what choose the ships and ever
since he’s taken every opportunity
possible to show off his pipes and we’re
glad of it Oh
number two Jeremy Renner I’m looking for
the mask so then how’d it go and rain on
this brain although a few of the
Avengers were up for this list
Hawkeye nailed the bullseye this time we
already know he’s got talent in the
acting department with a couple of Oscar
nods under his belt and he’s basically
cemented himself as the hardened
emotional wreck you don’t want to mess
with but when given a chance to carry a
tune or two he knocks us off our feet
I nest any pardon or anything done he’s
actually sung on screen quite a few
times but we’re still waiting to see him
in an actual musical role then did you
believe in rock’n roll also the Avengers
on Broadway maybe from the hook the Iron
Man to captain
look I know it’s Captain America I know
that but I had to rhyme with there
before we play ourselves out to our top
pick here are a few honorable mentions
when I speak my mind did I say the right
when I was just a baby my mama told me
son always be a good boy don’t ever play
with guns in pursuit of your deepest
urge in pursuit of that fish which till
now has been sigh use or gel Bluetooth
Berlin scallops ear I cook skin
Caldecott go from
under five effective kids there was no
ransom to be paid
and the fairy tears it all into there’s
a kiss at the end of the rainbow
number one Ryan Gosling I just don’t
understand how come so quiet
we know this Canadian hunk for his deep
thoughtful roles as well as his
occasional ladies man parts in romantic
comedies baby Lynne Hagen David Lynn
Hagen okay is this a bad time
yeah that’s why we’re surprised that he
was once a member of the Mickey Mouse
Club alongside Justin Timberlake Britney
Spears and many others that’s good and
all but I think you guys need to make it
a little more exciting chant-like
throwing that whole terrorist thing and
maybe add some machine guns
yeah and explosions firing explosions
are really cool and was almost picked to
become a member of the Backstreet Boys
do you regret that decision not how he
lives the past me like I live in the now
you know later forming the band Dead
Man’s Bones once his acting career took
off
Gosling has since had several
opportunities to showcase his singing
chops and while it would have been
entertaining to see him as a member of
BSB we’re glad he chose this route good
okay slow dance slow dance to this part
