I know we’ve all had our share of giggles about Robert Pattinson and his longstanding dream of a music career. Ha, ha! But stop your laughing and dry your eyes, because Hugh Jackman will have you know that Young Mister Pattinson has a “really soulful, very pure, very beautiful singing voice.”
Jackman signed up to work with Pattinson on Unbound Captives way back in 2009, but they first met in 2008 on a flight to Tokyo. The story about Jackman, Pattinson, and Australia director Baz Luhrmann all hitting a Japanese “karaoke box” together might be old news, sure, but this is the first time Jackman has talked about the experience.
Revelations abound!
1) Robert Pattinson has a beautiful singing voice!
2) HUGH JACKMAN WORE A SCHOOLGIRL COSTUME. (Teehee!)
From MTV’s Rough Cut, with perennially easygoing interviewer Josh Horowitz:
Josh: “Have you ever met Rob? Or have you—”
Hugh: “Yeah! I actually did karaoke with Rob.”
Josh: “What?”
Hugh: “Right? That’s random, isn’t it.”
Josh: “What did you guys sing?”
Hugh: “We were on our way to Japan, and he was promoting, and I didn’t talk to him at all on the flight, because it’s just this really tall guy with a hood over his head.” [slumps in chair]
Josh: [giggling] “That’s Rob!”
