MENACE MUZZLE

And for everyone who thinks that pop songs were only meant to be sung by the pop stars who released them, there’s the karaoke muzzle. Plug the muzzled microphone in, and give your favorite karaoke lover the headphones that are included. She can croon (or scream) as loud as her heart desires, and you don’t have to listen to even one off-key note.

Unfortunately, this product seems to only be available in Japan, as of yet. It’ll cost you 8,190 yen, or about $71.

Optional backup vocals. Control buttons on
microphone.

Teeny—and comes in hip colors.

Yes! Four microphone hookups and backup vocals make for some real party action.

$120-$140
