It’s the 25 Days of Chrises-mas here at Hidden Remote, and today we’re are celebrating Chris Pine’s singing voice. Though Chris wasn’t able to show off his singing ability in Wonder Woman, he’s performed in other films, on variety shows, and even on an album alongside Barbra Streisand! He loves to take a page out of Frank Sinatra’s song book every not and then, but Chris Pine has also dabbled in musical theater, country music, rock and disco. Sit back and get comfy, because you’re about to be serenaded by the most musical Chris of all the Chrises.
And now we present, in no particular order, 7 times we fell in love with Chris Pine singing:
7) When he belted out an a cappella version of “I Will Survive”
Get ready, because an energetic Chris took on Gloria Gaynor’s “I Will Survive” (after apologized to her) to belt out his rendition of this classic disco hit, and things got pretty crazy.
6) When he explained the differences between all the Chrises on SNL
Promoting Wonder Woman on Saturday Night Live, Chris took it upon himself to explain how he’s different from all the other Chrises, visual aids included, while singing a lyrical rewrite of Billy Joel’s “Uptown Girls.”
5) When he serenaded a fan on The Ellen show
In 2014 on The Ellen Show, Chris explained how he loves to sing in the shower (especially Frank Sinatra tunes). When Ellen revealed there was a “Pine Nut” in the audience, she was invited down to the stage to be serenaded by Mr. Pine himself as he sang “Summer Wind.”
4) When he was a Country music rock star
Chris Pine put aside his Frank Sinatra voice to find his inner country star in the 2010 movie, Small Town Saturday Night. Chances are you’ve never seen this straight-to-DVD film, but you’d be missing out if you skip over the opportunity to watch Chris Pine singing and playing guitar to a packed house at a local country bar:
3) When he was adorably terrified about his duet with Barbra Streisand
You can listen to the gorgeous duet track of Chris Pine singing with Barbra Streisand here, but after laying down a track in London for Barbra Streisand’s new album, he later admitted on Jimmy Kimmel Live that he was scared to record the song for her.
2) When he sang about snow days
In January 2016, Chris sang the names of schools on the East coast that were closed due to snow. Dressed in wintery attire (with the exception of his flip flops) on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Chris belted out a list of schools to the tune of “Let It Snow,” encouraging kids to stay inside, play Xbox and eat Cheetos.
1) When he was comically overdramatic as Cinderella’s Prince
Starring in Into The Woods, Chris Pine sang about his “Agony” over being separated from his princess, Cinderella. We’ll never get tired of watching Chris Pine and Billy Magnussen try to out-Prince each other while singing in a picturesque waterfall.
