Megan Mullally's ear-piercing nasal voice became one of the hallmarks of Karen Walker on Will & Grace. Interestingly, Mullally's actual voice is much lower and much less nasal. Mullally revealed that during the auditioning process for Karen, she found this tone and deepened into its comedic ability. People are often taken aback by her singing voice off-screen because she's a classically trained vocalist with a silky smooth and melodic range. It's funny because, with Mullally's distinctive vocal choices, she cemented Karen as one of sitcom history's most memorable characters, while in other projects, she was free to explore wildly different tones.
