This is sort of off subject, but being baseball and all, it reminded my of this video of Denise Richards (former Bond girl) singing "Take me out to the ballgame...."

Oh lord.........it's terrible. Denise Richards Destroying Eardrums At Wrigley - http://www.sharapovasthigh.com/2009/05/denise-richards-botches-take-me-out-to.html

Well it looks like the video has been removed. But doesn't she sort of look like a ventriloquist's dummy?
