Funny Story: The reprise of “Falling for Ya” (Teen Beach 2) almost didn’t happen because they didn’t know if I could sing in CheeChee’s voice/accent. They were “unsure if it would work.”
But I knew it would.
So with ten minutes before pick up (I was filming Pitch Perfect 2 at the time), I grabbed my laptop, shut myself in my hotel bathroom, and sang
#ProudMary by
#TinaTurner to prove it. Once and acapella (very apropos).
And guess what... it worked! 😝
Here, I set that “demo” to bits from the actual musical number we filmed for the movie.
Just a little reminder (to myself and anyone who needs it), sometimes... you just gotta show’em 💃🏽
