What is it about Christopher Walken that makes him so goddamn great. Well, where do you begin?
Whether it’s the incredibly unique delivery of his lines or his impeccable taste in clothing, Christopher Walken is the very definition of cool. Women want him and men want to be him… or at least we want him to be our really, really cool, well-dressed Dad.
Each week, JOE will be bringing you our Weekly Appreciation Series on the Original Made From Cool – Mr Christopher Walken.
Everyone knows the actor puts the emPHAsis on the parts of the word that don’t need to be emphaSISED, but little did we know that he does a brilliant version of Lady Gaga’s Poker Face, something he revealed to the world when appearing on Friday Night With Jonathan Ross back in 2009.
This is the way the pop star wishes she sounded.
“OH! Oh! Ah! Oh!”
It’s not just about his delivery though, the man can dance. Yes sir, there’s nooooo doubt about it. Walken’s dancing ability is something that Fatboy Slim opportunistically seized upon when he cast the King of Cool in his brilliantly bizarre video for his 2001 hit ‘Weapon Of Choice.’
The man can fly for God’s sake:
This all-round great guy has a few tricks up his Jack & Jones sleeve worth sharing so watch this space as JOE brings you more of the wonderful Walken.
