i can't not love george takai.who knew this song was as repetitive as it is? clint black's stand up was far worse. george does sound better signing "brad's big balls" on the stern show tho.
Horror upon horrors... a senior-citizen-Asian-homosexual-cowboy-washed-up-C-list actor singing way, way off key... I have looked into the eye of the gorgon, and I am blinded. George, throw youself off the nearest cliff and MAYBE we'll forgive you!!!
OMG. I give him credit tho...singing good or bad in front of people ain't easy...ESPECIALLY when you have no rthym, no talent. But Nichelle Nichols looks gorgeous.
I don't know what the strangest part of this video is..there are just so many.. but it's certainly not the fact that it's a gay man dressed up like a cowboy.
CBS has pulled the plug on its latest foray into the celebrity-reality-competition genre, Secret Talents of the Stars, after just one exceedingly lackluster airing.
holy cow! George...I love you...but when you get that funny itch...stick to fencing and running around half naked... singing is making us all sickly......good gosh!!!!
His tempo was so off that I didn't even really pay attention to his pitch. He really set Asians back a ways. He seems to personify all negative stereotypes about Asians, particularly having no rhythm and being so naive that he doesn't know that everyone is laughing at him, not with him.
Yeah it wasn't that good but I'm glad they didn't show the third judges comments. I understand he's the simon cowell of the show but he should have more cooth. Celebrity or not these folks have the courage to get on stage and expose themselves to the world what was that jerks hidden talent? Being an asshole certainly isn't the secret one.
I wish they'd stop hyping these shows as "America's most beloved stars" and start referring to them by the more honest and accurate "washed up c-listers who blew through all their money and are struggling to remain known and pay mortgages they got when the were beloved over a decade ago."
It isn't like we don't see through it and America is more prone to watch a train wreck in the making than actual celebrity success anyway. At least Geroge has done Heroes recently, but some of the others?
It was absolutely horrendous, but being George Takai how bad could it be?

First it was Spock's "Bilbo Baggins" then it was Kirk's "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" Now Sulu doing Country Western.
If only Dr. McCoy had lived long enough to perform "I wanna be Loved by You" with a feather boa... then my life would be complete.

You think he would've learned from William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy's previous singing debacles.
On a side note he reminds me of that gay bar owner in "Good Morning Vietnam."
