Chad Michael Murray can act, and he can dance like a stripper, as we learned from The Merry Gentlemen. However, he is sadly not a triple threat.
The actor shared a video of himself singing Britney Spears’ Baby One More Time from Freakier Friday. And as much as I adore him, I think we know why this didn’t make the film’s final cut.
Do you think his singing is Toxic, or are you saying Gimme More?
Lindsay Lohan and Chad Michael Murray shared a kiss in Freaky Friday. Did you know that was her first onscreen kiss?
Since it was a stressful situation for the then-teenager, Jamie Lee Curtis, Murray, and the producers had a meeting to make it less stressful for her. So the Hollywood legacy, with three decades of experience at the time, told them to practice their kiss there and get it over with so that it would not be as nerve-racking when the director yelled, “Action.”
However, since she was about 16, she was still nervous to kiss the good-looking 21-year-old.
So, what were they going to do to make her more comfortable? Curtis turned to Murray and asked if he was good. Of course, he said yes. And then she put her lips on where he just said yes.
That broke the ice, and Lohan’s first kiss was not as stressful. And Murray’s dad is still jealous of his son to this day.
You can say that the three had a Freaky Friday moment because Curtis substituted for Lohan, or had Lohan already switched bodies with Curtis so that she could kiss her co-star in both bodies?
Murray learned a very important lesson in that moment. He told the Good Morning America anchors, “It set up me for a lot more comfortability working with her, working with everybody because you realized, ‘We’re just making a movie. Let’s go have some fun. And let’s not be so serious. Let’s have a riot.'”
Curtis hasn’t changed. Murray said that when all the actors went into the table read for Freakier Friday, the Oscar winner came up with a way to make it less confusing because there are four of them switching places in the sequel. What was it? She gave Lohan, Julia Butters, Sophia Hammons, and herself hats, so that everyone knew who was who at that moment in the movie. It worked, and it made things a lot less confusing.
Janet Leigh did a great job preparing her daughter for Hollywood and acting, so that she could do the same for the next generations of actors. We need more actors like the late legend and her talented daughter.
One last note, I wouldn’t mind having the One Tree Hill star as my first onscreen kiss! Would you?
Before Chad Michael Murray was getting all the ladies on the big and small screen, his brother got the girl in Megiddo: The Omega Code 2. He looks the same now as he did when he was 18 in that 2001 movie.
Chad Michael Murray has been keeping his three children with Sarah Roemer out of the public eye, but that doesn’t mean that they don’t know how much the public loves their daddy.
Today, when the actor was on Good Morning America promoting Freakier Friday, he shared a funny story about his little boy.
Murray realizes it is a blessing that by taking a photo with a fan or signing an autograph that it is going to make them happy, so he never says no. The 10-year-old realized he could use that to his advantage.
Recently, when he was filming in Puerto Rico, the pre-teen seized the moment to try out a move he will be using many times when he becomes a teen. The proud but not proud pop explained what it is, “He sees these girls, younger girls in bikinis, and he walks over and he goes, ‘My dad’s Chad Michael Murray. I thought you might want to, you know, get a photo with him.” Slick, right?
Not to his dad, who held his head in shame after he told that tale. But you know he is secretly proud. Because this is not the first time it has happened. One time, when he brought his Don Juan to an event at a college, he saw his mini-me talking to five college girls.
He is just like his dad, so the girls better watch out. Especially if he got his dad’s endearing personality. Murray has been coming off as charming as the characters he plays, which makes me think that it is not a stretch for him to play those roles. He truly is a merry gentleman. Wow, did he look amazing in that telefilm.
On that note, am I the only one who wants to see the father and son do their own Freaky Friday movie?
Chad Michael Murray and Sarah Roemer have been married for ten years, so how does the merry gentleman like it in the bedroom: naughty or nice?
We got that answer on The Drew Barrymore Show. “Naughty,” he boasted. “With a lot of nice. A lot of nice because there’s love and there’s love. And that matters.”
And I bet it also matters if he does that body roll move he showed Drew in bed because that move is definitely naughty! His wife is a lucky woman!
