Penelope Cruz is a huge fan of karaoke.The Spanish actress, who previously dated Tom Cruise, loves belting out her favourite hits so much she even has a karaoke machine at her home.Cruz also insists that her friends show off their singing talents when they go to her house. She told British breakfast TV show 'GMTV': "I have a karaoke machine - I know it's embarrassing. My friends have to go through a karaoke party when they come over. I don't tell them before or they won't come. They end up singing at three in the morning."Cruz admits she doesn't need an audience to inspire her to grab the mic, and regularly uses her karaoke machine on her own.She added: "I've even used my machine by myself, that's how sad I am! But it's fun."
