The One Show: Matt Lucas gives Jennifer Saunders unusual singing advice for Sister Act The Musical

Legendary comedian Jennifer Saunders will portray Mother Superior for the upcoming Sister Act musical tour in Manchester and London. However, on BBC's The One Show, the 63-year-old admitted to not being a confident singer, especially among the superstar performers also in the cast.

Saunders said: “I can’t sing like a professional singer and there’s so many great singers in this show.” The star of Absolutely Fabulous continued: “It takes a lot of energy to sing really loudly and really well but I’m getting more confident.”

He said: “Whenever I’m in a musical, I always steam my voice, at least twice a day.
