14 things you never expected to see in SingStar

We trawl the SingStore and pick out the most surprising performances we can find

Words: GamesRadar_NathanIrvine on May 20, 2009

When we think of SingStar, we think of two things - statuesque folk, mumbling incoherently into a mic with all the energy of narcoleptic or posturing show-offs who've been practicing their Erasure act in their parent's bathroom mirror. But it seems there's much more out there.

Just a quick flick through the millions of videos uploaded to SingStar's SingStore - is like peering into a kaleidoscope filled with madness and cringe-worthy performances. From Michael Jackson impersonators to singing bread, it's a terrifying rollercoaster ride of 'look at me' wannabes. But we're only too willing to oblige. So here's a one-stop shop of our 14 favourite stand-out acts. Enjoy.

There is another Chewbacca video on there with the same guy doing the Scissor Sisters song like the Stormtrooper. Also, me and my brother have a video up there were why got into a wrestling match while playing when he tried to cheat by hitting me in the nuts while we were playing. I called it "Full Contact SingStar".

I love the RRoD 360 one! Really honestly, some of these are actually creative.

I loved the cookie monster singing to the scared little child hiding behind the chair but the WTF man really had some awesomely weird moves!

Girl at the end was fit as hell. I haven't laughed like that in ages, the stormtrooper and the old lady were just too damn good.

Some of those actually hurt my throat 'cos of the laughter... Especially the wookie one! This is probably why I will never get this game... I'm bad enough with my Rock Band videos!

The girl in the chewy video had a nice voice. But the WTF one is the best. The hamburger one is also funny as hell

2 things. 1. I'm scarred for life because of that red speedo ping-pong ball guy. (Hope I never have to type THAT again) 2. Chewbacca was epic. But it still couldnt clean the stain from my eyes after speedo man.
