2023.02.13 – 0774 – Voice Advice From Justin Timberlake and Larry Hagman
‘Resting’ actors
Larry Hagman was best known for playing ruthless oil baron J. R. Ewing in the 1978–1991 primetime television soap opera ‘Dallas’ and the befuddled astronaut Major Anthony Nelson in the 1965–1970 sitcom ‘I Dream of Jeannie’. For 20 years he undertook “silent Sundays” after a doctor suggested that he did not talk for a few days after he strained his vocal cords. For one day a week he said not a word to anyone.[1] Ultimately though it is reported that he had to give it up when he realised that the benefits were outweighed by missed opportunities.
More recently bruised vocal cords left Justin Timberlake on vocal rest, so in 2018 he ‘talked’ about his book, ‘Hindsight: And All the Things I Can’t See in Front of Me’, with Jimmy Fallon using pen and paper, plus charades-like hand gestures.[2]
