It’s not enough that Robert Downey Jr. is one of the most paid and most valuable actors in the world. He tops all that with an awesome duet with one of the most respected artist in music history. Some might be surprised to know that he is a very good singer, he proved this by joining Sting onstage to deliver an epic live performance of a song called “Driven to Tears”.

The “Iron Man 3” star shared the stage with Sting while they were backed by a band. The 48-year-old actor showed-off his vocal abilities, with Sting joining him while playing his electric guitar. He received a standing ovation from the crowd and we have to agree, it was well deserved!
