Squeaky voiced actors

[Jack Bauer]

I was channel surfing Thursday night and came across the Tonight Show. Jay Leno was interviewing Rosie Perez who has a really squeaky voice. It got me to thinking...what other actors have those annoying squeaky voices?

 

[Kira's Mom]

Julie Haggerty (from Airplane!)- but in her case, the squeaky voice is part of her charm.

 

[Aragorn]

Jennifer Tilly

 

[Art Vandelay]

Kristin Chenoweth

Jennifer Tilly

The very definition of "squeaky voiced."

Kinda hot, though.

 

[HRHTheKING]

Yep.

Jennifer Tilly has an awful voice. I saw her once in a mafia movie and it was laughable to hear that voice in a movie about organised crime and blood vendettas.

Rosie Perez has one of those annoying "oh no he didhant" Hispanic voices I hate so much.

Gilbert Gottfried . . . sure it's an act, but he's definitely squeaky

I actually like high, squeaky female voices, I guess because I once was madly in love with a woman with a very girlish voice. I think Kristin Chenoweth's voice is great. I also love listening to Yeardley Smith. She has a beautiful voice -- not so much its timbre, but the way she uses it. It's as though she and Chenoweth trained themselves to make the best possible use of their vocal instruments to compensate for their annoying qualities.

I'd classify that as grating rather than squeaky.

Where's the video clip of Worf sighing into his palm when you need it?

Interesting you put those two together - listening to the Broadway recording of Wicked, for the longest time I thought one of the characters (bad with names) was Yeardley Smith because it sounded so much like Lisa Simpson. I only learned about two weeks ago it's actually Kristin Chenowith. And then it was sort of an "oh yeahhhhhhhhh!!" moment.

I agree, I love both of their voices though.

 

[NoImpulseEngine]

Gilbert Gottfried, not really squeaky but he's got a voice that just eats into your skull

 

[Kadratis]

How about Fran Drescher? Her laugh still haunts my dreams.
