Finishing her party trick, she added: ‘Thank you all for watching. Thank you to all the frontline workers and medical teams who are working so hard right now. If you want to donate, that would be great.’
While Keira’s unusual talent is unknown to many fans, she has previously shown off the skill while appearing on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon in 2019.
Using her fingers to tap the childlike melody to Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head and Luis Fonsi’s Despacito, she told the host: ‘There was a boy at school when I was about seven or eight and he went on a talent show on TV, so he was like the coolest person ever, and he played his teeth.
‘So, everybody at my school was like, that’s cool, so everybody from that school can probably play their teeth.’
Revelation: ‘I made a little sign, and I was trying to think of something entertaining to do and I couldn’t think of anything so I’m going to play my teeth, which is my one and only party trick,’ she told viewers
Keira’s playful appearance comes after her PORTER interview in March, where she revealed she has backtracked on her controversial decision to ‘ban’ daughter Edie, four, from watching fairytales.
She said: ‘She’s watched all of them now. When we watched Sleeping Beauty, she said, “It’s not OK, that man kissed her without her permission!”‘
The Pirates Of The Caribbean star originally claimed she had ‘banned’ her daughter from watching Disney films due to their lack of feminist messaging.
High praise: The actress also thanked frontline workers and medical teams for their hard work during the coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic
Speaking in 2018, she said: ‘I’m being very careful about fairytales with my kid because I don’t like the message that a lot of them have’.
‘So The Little Mermaid has been banned. Cinderella has been banned. I haven’t looked at Snow White again, but that may be banned, as well.’
Keira has been in a relationship with musician James Righton, of Klaxons, since February 2011.
They were married on May 4th 2013, in Mazan, Vaucluse. As well as Edie the couple are also parents to daughter Delilah, who was born in September 2019.
