Sorry, Quebec. We butchered your karaoke :(
There's no crime like French crime. Police in Gatineau, Quebec, are cracking down on karaoke bars flagrantly flouting the law. According to Quebec liquor laws, bars require a special license for karaoke singing. If a bar wants to host terrible amateur singers, it has to pay $426 for an add-on to its license.
This was the perfect excuse to ask our panellists to sing. Here's how it works: we've taken three popular karaoke songs and run them through Google translate. Panellists Measha Brueggergosman, Kris Siddiqi, and Tom Howell each take turns to sing an excerpt from a beloved English classic - in Google French.
First up, comedian Kris Siddiqi...
Next up, ex-lexicographer Tom Howell...
Lastly, opera singer Measha Brueggergosman!
