Marshawn Lynch does not like to talk to people. This is a fairly well-established fact at this point. On Media Day, he gave the same answer, "I'm just here so I won't get fined," 29 times. He literally said nothing else. It's a trick he's pulled before and seems fairly likely to pull again.
It should come as a fairly big shock, then, that Lynch did an interview with Entertainment Tonight's Michelle Williams -- the singer in Destiny's Child, not the actress -- in which he used words to form sentences and did not repeat himself at all.
Lynch, looking very relaxed on a nice, big couch, let's loose by singing some Katy Perry, and receives an XBOX One for his troubles. Lynch immediately states that he'll be donating the XBOX to his foundation (that he co-runs with 49ers backup quarterback Joshua Johnson), the Fam 1st Family Foundation, which "improves the lives of children by mentoring them on the importance of education, literacy and self-esteem." Heck of a nice gesture.
It should be noted that Williams has a much better voice than Lynch does. But getting Beast Mode to sing? Impressive.
