While appearing on the “The Jonathon Ross Show, ” actors Hugh Jackman and Luke Evans battled it out via song to see who is the better Gaston. Jackman once played the character in the staged musical of “Beauty and the Beast,” and Evans is about to play the beefy arrogant lad in the upcoming live-action remake with co-star Emma Watson as his Belle.
Ross challenged the two of them to sing Gaston’s eponymous song from the classic Disney movie and hilarity ensues as the two handsome men gamely get in character. Evans sings the lyrics, “As you see I got biceps to spare,” while flexing his arms, which causes even Jackman to totally crack up.
