Since filming his last season of hit comedy series Will And Grace, Eric McCormack continues to make audiences laugh. The funnyman was back in his hometown of Toronto earlier this week where he gave a hilarious impression of Sex Bomb singer Tom Jones, before joining a chorus line of Santa babes.

Eric looked every inch the legendary crooner as he took to the stage at Toronto's Elgin Theatre in tight leather pants, Seventies shirt and curly wig to belt out Tom's classic hit It's Not Unusual. He also thrilled the live audience with his chorus-line antics alongside the long-legged, Santa suit-clad Radio City Rockettes - who are appearing in Toronto for the first time this year, just in time for Christmas.

The performance was a part of the fifth annual It's Always Something variety show, which supports Gilda's Club – a cancer charity foundation inspired by the late Saturday Night Live comedienne Gilda Radner.

"It's the cause that brings me back," explained the 44-year-old star. “It's a very, very Toronto show and I'm proud to be a part of it." Eugene Levy, Canadian Idol Eva Avila and singer Jann Arden were among the show's other celebrity performers.
