Michael Sheen: ‘Tom Jones doesn’t know the words to the Welsh national anthem’

Read More ]"/> Twilight star Michael Sheen has revealed Welsh singing legend Tom Jones does not know all the words to their national anthem.

The actor said: “I sang the Welsh national anthem next to Tom Jones. It was for the opening of the Welsh Assembly, I believe, in Wales.

“At a certain point in the Welsh national anthem Tom Jones clearly did not know the words. He turned to me, gave me a wink and then carried on singing. I thought, ‘That’s Tom Jones. That’s how he gets by in the world’.”

Sheen, who plays villain Aro in the latest Twilight movie New Moon, joked he always brings a “bit of Welsh” to the roles he plays because he is such a “crap” actor.

He told US chat show host Craig Ferguson: “I do put a little bit of Welsh into this one because I do put a little bit of Welsh into everything I do – because I’m crap.”
