Scarlett Johansson claims she is a "decent" singer
Having heard snippets of her debut album, a collection of Tom Waits covers entitled "Anywhere I Lay My Head", I'm not quite sure I agree. Scarlett claims that she isn't alone in her vocal talent - most actors possess good singing pipes, because they are "mimics" and can copy the sounds that they hear.
Her producer recommended that she keep a mini tape recorder on her person at all times so as to record sounds she liked as she heard them, so she found herself running outside to try and capture the haunting hoots of nearby owls.
I'd rather pay money to see that than buy her album, quite frankly.

Tom Waits Routes Tour Using Astrology As Guide
Eccentric American singer/songwriter Tom Waits staged a fake press conference, which was recorded and posted on YouTube (see video), to announce his upcoming Glitter And Doom Tour. With some recorded crowd noise for company, Waits explained, with tongue firmly in cheek, that he was guided by astrology when routing his tour, noting his journey will mirror the snake-like Hydra constellation. The fun loving and free spirited Sagittarius singer, whose vocals have been likened to a two week old cigarette stub at the bottom of an emptied glass of bourbon, further explained that he picked the towns he's due to play according to the principle of Pehdtsckjmba (pronounced peh-ska-JIM-bah).
