Michelle Yeoh Admits Why She Wasn't Nervous to Sing on Set for 'Wicked'
Tony Awards Nominee Michelle Yeoh is singing her heart out in her first musical 'Wicked'.
Michelle Yeoh, who plays Madame Morrible in the film adaptation of 'Wicked', recently opened up about her experience singing on set.
This is no easy feat, especially for someone who has never sung professionally before. But Yeoh said she wasn't nervous because she had been preparing for this role for years.
Yeoh worked with a vocal coach for years to prepare for 'Wicked'.
"We would do exercises where I would have to sing while standing on one leg or jumping up and down," Yeoh said.
"It was really challenging, but it helped me to build the stamina and the vocal range that I needed for this role."
Yeoh's hard work paid off. Her performance in 'Wicked' has been praised by critics, and she is even nominated for a Tony Award for Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role in a Musical.
If you haven't seen 'Wicked' yet, you can catch it in theaters now.
