In terms of how “Unpretty” even became an option for him to sing, only himself is to blame. When he signed for The singer hiddenHe had to complete a form listing some of his favorite songs, and chose a TLC track as one of his “guilty pleasure” tracks. He did not think producers would actually give “no -day,” but states that he had loved the song since it was shown in 1999.
“That piece was stuck in my head (when he came out),” he remembered. “Every time I was in the shower or in the car, I sang it. So I wrote down, without thinking that it would never be chosen, but it did. They chose it! I was like, ‘Okay, uh, this is going to be interesting.’

“I’m really afraid to sing,” the actor revealed. “I bombed a very large Broadway audition in front of many famous faces. It was terrible, very bad. It was for Cry-baby to play the Johnny Depp Character at the show, and made an adaptation to Broadway. I don’t know if it was ever done or whatever happened to him, ‘because I gave him out of my memory. … And since then, I never went back on stage. “
Lawrence is not sure he is ready to embark on a new career as a pop star, but his time on the show – especially his victory on Shrek’s night – has helped him throw some of that phobia around singing.
“This is the season in my life where I’m going to start telling yes and not saying nothing so much and getting scared out and not living in that space anymore,” he explained. “That was the goal of this. And he worked!”
