Added some more elaboration on this example.

to:

* Loleatta Holloway. [[https://www.Music/LoleattaHolloway's hammy singing on her records (for example, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SY1hFD3MRaA Just listen]].Love Sensation]]") has made her a popular {{sampling}} choice for [[HouseMusic house]]/{{techno}} artists.

* [[Music/{{Rush}} Geddy Lee]], especially in the early days, before he learned to take his register down a notch.

* If we allow for musicians as well as vocalists to count as hams, then ProgressiveRock is the musical equivalent of this trope and is a veritable goldmine of hams. Keyboardists seem to be particularly susceptible to this ([[Music/{{Muse}} Matt Bellamy]] may be incredibly hammy on the microphone, but he's equally hammy on the piano and guitar; [[Music/EmersonLakeAndPalmer Keith Emerson]] and [[Music/{{Yes}} Rick Wakeman]] are also excellent examples of hammy prog keyboardists), but there are plenty of hams on other instruments as well (Neil Peart of Music/{{Rush}}, Music/BillBruford of Music/KingCrimson and Music/{{Yes}}, Steve Hackett of Music/{{Genesis|Band}}, Steve Howe of Music/{{Yes}}).

The lyrics I deleted are from one of his songs, but they are not about Alice, so they don’t really apply. (Unless you can provide a reference that is Word Of God.)


* Music/AliceCooper. '''LOVE ME! YES WE LOVE HIM! LOVE ME! YES WE LOVE HIM!''.

to:

* Music/AliceCooper. '''LOVE ME! YES WE LOVE HIM! LOVE ME! YES WE LOVE HIM!''.Music/AliceCooper: Alice puts on a show, where he could be killed several times in the show, in ways that include some servings of ham. He likens his show to Vaudeville. Creator/GrouchoMarx and Creator/MaeWest, among others were fans of his stage show. Each concert for a number of years ends with him introducing the band, and his wife and/or daughter as dancers. He hams that up, before introducing himself, "And playing the part of Alice Cooper tonight, ME!"

Added DiffLines:

* ''Music/ChristmasWithTheTabernacleChoir'': Some guests just decide they want to have some fun and put on a show for all they're worth.
** Creator/BrynTerfel came with the flag of Wales sewn into the inside of his coat. After showing the audience, he turned to show the choir and orchestra.
** Creator/BrianStokesMitchell half-acts out a lot of his songs, especially "The Friendly Beasts" where he sings with different voices for the different animals, even moving his jaw like a cow chewing its cud during that verse.
** Creator/JohnRhysDavies really gets into his role as the Ghost of Christmas Present. Especially when they start flying. "Wheeee!"
** Creator/KristinChenoweth hams her way through her entire concert, with a few instances where she's more serious. Otherwise she's posing dramatically as she sings, dancing around the set and bantering with Mack and the other performers.
** During a sing-along in the 2017 concert, a shot focuses on a group of kids who start hamming it up when they see the camera on them.

* Getting hammy only adds to the goofiness of derided bands like Music/{{Nickelback}} ("LOOKADISS PHOTOGRAPH!") or Music/{{Creed}} ("WHEN YOU AH WITH ME! AH'M FREEEEE!"). Chad Kroeger and Scott Stapp aren't mocked for nothing, and the latter's {{Yarling}} [[https://twitter.com/ScottStapp/status/668189441949757440 helps the parodying]].

* Atilla Csihar of Music/{{Mayhem}} is perhaps the most notorious example of this among BlackMetal vocalists. His [[TrueArtIsIncomprehensible unorthodox]] [[ManOfAThousandVoices amalgamation]] of [[GutturalGrowler guttural growls]] and operatic wailing is known for its theatrical qualities as well as being, well, [[{{Understatement}} highly emphatic]]. Csihar's works for other bands like Aborym and Music/SunnO can, if anything, get even ''hammier''. Maniac, another of Mayhem's vocalists, can also get spectacularly hammy, particularly on ''Grand Declaration of War''. "WATCH THE TWILIGHT OF YOUR GOD AS YOUR SYSTEM CRACKS, AND ALL YOUR LIFE IS DEAD, PRIEST!"
