Tom Hanks Helps Gillian Anderson Overcome Her Fear of Singing with 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand'
Tom Hanks and Gillian Anderson teamed up for a memorable duet!
The duo sang The Beatles‘ “I Wanna Hold Your Hand” while on The Late Late Show with James Corden on Tuesday night during a live taping in London.
Anderson, 50, who recently finished playing Margo Channing in the West End adaptation of All About Eve, told host James Corden that one of her fears was singing.
“I don’t sing,” Anderson said. “PJ Harvey wrote a song for me to sing that I had to sing every night, accompanied by a piano, and so I had to sing but I don’t sing.”
When Corden asked how she overcame that fear, Anderson said she had a job to do and she would do it as long as her bosses “didn’t mind if she was singing it bad.”
