She may be the most annoying showbiz actress, and he the most promising actor. But enjoy Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt together singing a ditty by Nancy Wilson in this new video Deschanel posted to her website:
Editor-in-Chief Nikki Finke - tip her here.


Zooey is a one note actress, but Kate Heigl gets most annoying, Levitt overrated, but is a solid actor
Wow! I am astounded at the amount of hate that is filtered through this site. I am starting to realize that the comments on here are not from industry insiders but people who have failed to make it in the industry. They use deadline as a tool to publicly hate on these stories which focus on successful actors, execs, etc. I’m sure your little rant and hate had made you feel better about yourself.
On another note, this video is great and these two have wonderful chemistry. Grow a heart deadline commenters.
I’ve thought the same thing for awhile now. A GREAT number of comments here are from people who have bombed in Hollywood. They are bitter and mean.
Kudos!
“deadheadline”, I agree with you but “blame hollywood” was actually addressing the article. Wait a couple days for comments from the actual, jealous, mean-spirited, failed actors who are still nursing their hangover from NYE.
I work in the industry and this is the first time I’ve heard of Deschanel being the “most annoying.” I agree with Nikki on Gordon-Levitt.
As far as the video, I am jealous of the lives of actors…sigh. I wonder what those two did for NYE?
What hate? Saying Deschanel is one-note, Heigl annoying and Levitt overrated but solid is not hate. It’s the opinion I’d say a lot of critics share (especially the deschanel and heigl part).
Maybe some comments are from average people who never intended to make it to the biz. just your average movie fan. Ever thought about that?
I agree with you, 100%.
I think you might get a LOT of argument over her being most annoying. And that voice is one that a lot of professional singers would kill for. I did think it was funny that Gordon was the high one in the song. He’s not a bad singer, either.
She was great in Elf and her band She & Him is really good… but yeah, “one-note actress” is spot on.
Ever watch the CW? At least she has one note.
That was a terrific way to cap off a wonderful New Years celebration. Very nice indeed.
I don’t get why she is annoying? She seems pretty fine from where I’m sitting, but then I don’t see much of her this side of the world. I guess she’d only be annoying if she insisted on singing every time a guest visited her place.
Gordon seems to have strange mannerisms…
is it me or is J. Gordon-Levitt starting to look like French Stuart?
I think it’s you… I see more of a young Kevin Spacey.
Nancy Wilson sang it, but the song is by Frank Loesser.
+1!
I find it odd that they’re both playing left-handed.
They could have their webcam mirrored, it’s a simple option in every webcam program.
I thought it was a ditty by Frank Loesser. Kids these days. No sense of history
I love her, she’s absolutely adorable. She might come across as annoying because she’s perky and positive, but it seems genuine.
i guess we don’t see as much of her in australia as ye do in usa but why is she so annoying ?
Whatever… The video was cute and sweet. Happy New Year!!
And then again she may not be the most annoying showbiz actress. Meow to you, too.
They both have lovely voices.
They both have great voices. Kudos.
Wow. If the hipster-trendy-instrument-of-the-moment ukulele wasn’t stomach-churning enough…
…the motherfucking tiara knocks it out of the park. Cringe-worthy doesn’t even begin to describe it.
Congratulations. You get the bucket-of-coal award for 2011!
I would love to know what you just worked on that was obviously recently cancelled or passed on by a studio executive. Look, your bitterness is showing.
Kudos again.
Please, you people pointing fingers at all the bitter haters need to get a grip. This is a grown woman who chose of her own free will to wear a freaking tiara and spew it across the internet. Pointing out the ridiculousness of that hardly makes anyone a bitter hater.
You aren’t helping yourself, HW.
Charming. Why pick apart something that is nice?
Reality stars are who have no talent and want to be famous are annoying. Whether you like these two or not they are both hard working and have talent. Why so angry? They both also seem like decent people.
Aw, Zooey has her gay BFF over for some sing-songing. How presh!
It’s funny: women seem to hate her because she’s talented, pretty, and a bit of a dork. Guys like her because she’s talented, pretty, and a bit of a dork.
At least she has some other talent. And for the record, there are far more annoying actresses. Yes, Maggie G., we’re looking at you.
Amen!
Cute video.
I like her because she makes me laugh. And isn’t that what the goal of you entertainment types is? To entertain us out in the heartland? Well, I’ve been entertained by her work. Keep it up Zooey.
Love it. I don’t usually care for actors personal lives, but these two seriously need to date/get married.
Well said, and so true. The majority of the commentors are people with little to no affiliation to the industry or it’s professionals.
I think they’re both adorable. Wonderful voices, lovely song. What a treat. Why all the hate? I don’t get it. Because she’s wearing a tiara? So what! It’s in celebration of New Year’s Eve. If she wants to wear a tiara, what’s the big deal?
Because desperately unhappy people feel compelled to spread their unhappiness in an attempt to destroy anyone who looks like their having a good time.
