Gwyneth Paltrow surprised fans with her “secret singing voice” on Thursday night as she appeared onstage at the 100th anniversary celebration of The Grand Ole Opry. The Oscar-winning actress, 53, was enthusiastically invited onstage by country star Holly Williams and her husband Chris Coleman after they spotted Paltrow in the crowd at the legendary Nashville venue. “Can y’all believe your luck? Y’all are used to those Nashville guests, but not those Oscar-winning Hollywood guests,” Williams said as Paltrow made her way to the stage, joining the duo for a rendition of Williams’ 2013 song “Drinkin.” Following the performance, Williams told the crowd, “Can you believe it? Isn’t it annoying when they can just do everything, and they just walk out looking all like that, right? Looking real good.” The country star then revealed she’d “had the great honor of meeting” Paltrow years ago, and “fell in love” with the actress’s “secret voice.” The trio then performed “Waiting on June” together, another of Williams’ songs. Paltrow first said she became a fan of Williams’ music back in 2012, and the two have maintained a friendship ever since. Paltrow has sung on screen, including in her 2011 movie, Country Strong, which featured among others, country star Tim McGraw.
