Oh, heyyyyy, remember Chris Klein? To refresh your memory: he was the Nebraska teenager of vaguely Keanu-ish charms who was plucked from obscurity and cast against Reese Witherspoon in the brilliant Election as her dumb but lovable rival for Class President. He then went on to become a B-list teen idol, appearing in a bunch of movies that f*ck if I can remember and eventually ended up dating Katie Holmes for a long time before she brutally dumped him for Krazy Eyez Tom Cruise. (I have this theory that Chris is also little Suri C’s secret babydaddy, but I’ll keep it to myself because I would rather not get the Scientologist hit squad on my gay ass!)
Anyway, I always thought Chris was super-cute in a balding way, and although he’s spent the bulk of this decade chilling with Freddie Prinze Jr. at the home for outtawork late-’90s heartthrob also-rans, it turns out that his looks have not faded. He’s hotter than ever if you ask me! Unfortunately, a new (maybe fake?) video reveals that he’s also the world’s worst singer.
Here, you’ll see him (supposedly) auditioning for Mamma Mia with a rendition of ABBA’s classic Swedey-pop anthem Lay All Your Love on Me that makes Anna-Nicole Smith’s Cousin Shelly look like Agnetha Faltskog and Mrs. the Countess Luann De Lesseps look like Anni-Frid Lyngstad.
Despite his less-than-angelic pipes, you have to give Chris credit for working it. He may not be able to sing, but throughout his disastrous performance he never wavers in his slack-jawed f*ck-me aplomb. And that’s entertainment, folks!

I actually went to school with Chris, and I can tell you that he actually can sing pretty well, so I think this video is some lame, 21st Century PR stunt to get his name back into the public domain. Viral, you know.
OMG! That was disturbing! Not only is voice was bad but what was up with his face?!?
Overact much?
I also believe that he is the Suri daddy.
There have got to be foreign substances coursing through his veins in that video, which looks more like an admission tape for Douche Academy than Mamma Mia.
