I disagree.  Woman can sing.  And you best bet that she can put on one fuck of a live performance.  Give her props, at least, for putting on a damn good show...

Can't agree with you on this one at all, even though I'm not a fan. Just not my taste but I think he did rather well at both.
 
 Now, I have to fully agree that Juliette Lewis needs to give up her music career. Sorry Betty.   ;)

I thought about this one, but before Jennifer Lopez started singing, she was actually in some pretty good movies and did pretty well with them - "Out of Sight," for example.  She was also in that Robert Redford indie film in the past year.  And I guess she can sing, it just isn't my thing.

Can't sing.  That band would be much better off without him.

You can't be serious.  I mean, she puts on twice the live show as a lot of the performers out there right now...you have to at least give her as much credit as Karen O for stage antics.  Plus, I think she has a good voice.  I don't necessarily agree with the fact that she (or any of these people) have free-loaded off of their acting careers or siblings careers or whatever to get an album out, when tons of other musicians are working twice as hard; BUT...it could be a lot worse.

Sorry but I find her extremely irritating. I do like her acting though as long as she's playing those goofy ass roles she usually plays. She's perfect for those. Just can't tolerate her though involving anything concerning music. As far as stage antics, that's not singing. The woman just gets on my nerves unless she's playing one of her offbeat roles.

yea j.lo isnt my thing either, but i guess its up in the air for debate. i was watching vh1 and they had something about actors and singers and i didnt know rodney dangerfield had a "rap" song called "no respect" as well, the kid who played bud bundy on married with children had a short lived stint as a rap artist, i thought it was kind of funny

If I remember correctly, one of the big knocks on J-lo is that she COULDN'T sing, she just kinda sing-talked with a breathy voice

No, you are right. She's only targeting young guys with no culture, taste or brains. Bet you had a great time at her show!

People, after you post a name (i.e. Patrick Swayze) you need to specify wether he is an actor who can't sing, or a singer who can't act.
 
 I'm sure we all agree that "She's Like the Wind" is a brilliant song.
 
 Thus, the confusion

Joey Lawrence and I will go with an actor that can't sing.
 
 I really wanted to do R Kelly because of his bizarre rap/opera/drama thing but it just confused me too much to make any sense out of it.

Well, I thought it was pretty obvious. Besides, does someone like Patrick Swayze really need clarification? Most of these people are more famous (or talented) at one thing and not the other. It shouldn't be that difficult to figure out which someone is referring to.
Title: Re: Singers who can't Act & Actors who can"t Sing
Post by: freakoretardo on May 02, 2006, 03:42:00 pm
My point is, that Don Johnson can't act nor can Patrick Swayze.
 
 
 But they both sing like angels straight from heaven.

The ambiguity is part of what makes this fun. For instance, I said Juliette Lewis.

Backstage with Keanu, Quaid, Leto, others seeking rock stardom (http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/0509061riders1.html?link=rssfeed)
 
 Since it's never good enough to be solely a movie star, famous actors and actresses are always fronting bands in a bid to replicate their success. Of course, usually it's a vanity project and a complete disaster (see: Don Johnson and Eddie Murphy). Still, that doesn't stop celebrities from piling onto tour buses and hitting the road to perform before small crowds nationwide. And with those gigs, of course, comes the production rider detailing the backstage needs of the star and his/her sidemen. On the following pages you'll find excerpts from the backstage riders of Keanu Reeves (Dogstar); Jared Leto (30 Seconds to Mars); Dennis Quaid (Dennis Quaid and the Sharks); Juliette Lewis (Juliette & The Licks); and Steven Seagal (Steven Seagal Band). While unable to vouch for their music, we are impressed with the relative restraint shown by these Hollywood stars. Though when you're playing before 136 people on a Thursday night in Buffalo, you probably can't be too grubby.
