Ellen DeGeneres Forces Jennifer Aniston To Sing On National Television
Oh man … Ellen DeGeneres sure nailed Jennifer Aniston on national TV today. Jen paid a visit to The Ellen DeGeneres Show to promote her new movie Love Happens and Ellen brought up the matter of Jen’s next film wherein she will sing in the movie. Without missing a beat, Ellen ambushed and FORCED Jen to sing a little bit during her interview on the show. Jen looked and sounded a bit pissed, y’all … but she womaned up and sang a little bit for the audience:
She sang a few lines of Cole Porter’s I’ve Got a Crush on You … not very well, but hey, she was ambushed. I’m sure many people will say, It was staged! She knew she’d be singing! But it really looked to me like she was surprised and not planning to sing … she even confessed to the audience that she was assured that Ellen would not force her to sing like this … but, Jen, at that point you should’ve known it was coming ;) After the jump, check out the clip in full and hear Jennifer Aniston sing for yourselves …
Awww … well, she did a good enough job, I think. I bet Jen really wanted to MURDER Ellen for putting her on the spot like that. For the record, the only reason I even know this Cole Porter song is because it’s the song that Stan Zbornak sang to Dorothy Zbornak on The Golden Girls in that ep when he was sleeping on her floor and was trying to get in bed with her by singing to her (Dorothy had to pretend she was still married to Stan so that her uncle Angelo, who she believed was a priest, wouldn’t know they got a divorce). To be honest, I think Stan sang it better … but Jen did OK ;) Isn’t this clip the best? LOL!!!

It really wasn’t that bad, at least she sounded better then you know, Miley Cryus, when she sings XD But yeah, she did look embarrassed/ slightly annoyed at being forced to sing. But at least she tried to make some humor out of it before she started.

I honestly don’t think she looked mad at all..
September 16th, 2009 at 12:19 pm
I dont think it was staged, but I think she handled it pretty well…anyone who has ever tried to sing when their nerves kick in can sympathize!

meh

Hahaha! Nice GG reference, Trent! Classic..I don’t think she looked mad..I think she looked blindsided a bit..And her voice wasn’t that bad..Better than what I could do, though that’s not saying much..
September 16th, 2009 at 12:29 pm
awwe, that was super cute and she sounds better then some the current pop stars who are all the rage…
September 16th, 2009 at 12:31 pm
Hmmm…I really think that if there’s anything embarrassing here is the fact that you only know a Cole Porter song because of “The Golden Girls”…

She did better then Britney did with Ellen!
September 16th, 2009 at 12:33 pm
@Ana — SOOOO true, I am SOOOOO embarrassed!!!!!
September 16th, 2009 at 12:46 pm
OMG I totally thought of Golden Girls right away when I heard it too haha! :) I think it was cute, handled well by Jen. I think she should seriously try her hand at stand-up.
September 16th, 2009 at 1:06 pm
Aww, I think she’s adorable.
September 16th, 2009 at 1:10 pm

She is simply perfect in my eyes, not a bad bone in her body.
What an absolute star, so classy.

I love Jennifer Aniston! She’s a good sport.

I don’t think she looked mad – just embarrassed. Lol, she did good though and they are so cute.
September 16th, 2009 at 6:33 pm
I love Jen with all my heart and soul! she is so freakin cute and funny.
September 16th, 2009 at 6:40 pm
I dunno, I really didn’t think she looked mad at all! If she was, she handled it really well. And Trent, I was expecting the singing to be wayyy worse by the way you made it sound, but it wasn’t too bad!
September 16th, 2009 at 8:06 pm
she started and ended in the same pitch area… she’s not tone deaf… and to sing without any accompaniment and do that- gets a thumbs up from me!
September 16th, 2009 at 8:37 pm
Love her!
September 16th, 2009 at 8:49 pm

It’s a George Gershwin song, really, though many people sang it.

Please listen to Frank Sinatra! She did it great because she is not a singer!

I’m sorry but she can’t sing. I can’t sing either but she can’t! And I know the Jennifer fans all think she’s adorable but that was baaaaaaaad *runs away from Aniston fans with pitchforks*
