Ever since the release of the HBO epic show, the character Daenerys Targaryen (best known as khaleesi or Mother of Dragons) has become a fan favorite due to her story arc and how talented the actress who portrays her is - and Emilia Clarke's singing during the NBC "Red Nose Day" special proves she can do so much more!
NBC's "Red Nose Day" special is dedicated to a series of different charities, and it brings some of the biggest names in show business together to help others through hilarious skits, and among many others that went viral (including one about Julia Roberts' "real" voice), Emilia Clarke's singing became worldwide news!
According to Time Magazine, Emilia Clarke's singing was only a small part of a much larger segment entitled "Coldplay's New Musical," where the popular alternative rock band led by Chris Martin is "found" to be making a musical about "Game of Thrones."
People Magazine reports that Emilia Clarke's singing in the hilarious skit came only after the actress jokingly compared the fake project to the Titanic, "but not in terms of the successful movie; in terms of the unsuccessful boat."
The video that features Emilia Clarke's singing also has other major members of the cast joining in the fun, including Kit Harington (Jon Snow), Theon Greyjoy/Reek (Alfie Allen), Iwan Rheon (the much-hated Ramsay Bolton), two of the Lannister brothers, namely Peter Dinklage and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Tyrion and Jaime, respectively; sister Cersei was absent from the broadcast) and a number of actors who are now absent from the show after their characters died, including Rose Leslie (Ygrite).
So far, the campaign, which has featured a number of celebrities, has gathered about $10 million worth in donations, and Rolling Stone reports that viewers are encouraged to do their part by giving money to the Red Nose Day USA Fund.
