Sing! Don't Act
Have you heard the news? Jessica Simpson has the #1 movie in Russia. You'll never see the widely panned flick in a theater near you, but you will be able to rent the DVD of Major Movie Star (aka Private Valentine: Blonde & Dangerous), the Private Benjamin rip-off sometime soon. Simpson's third film makes us wonder why no one stopped her after her first debacle,The Dukes of Hazzard (we at GetBack don't take kindly to tarnishing an iconic retro series this way!). So we're taking a look back at other singers who, once upon a time, had a silver screen debut and rating them from worst to best.

pepe said "Honestly, Jimmy Kimmel is the worst to me. What is he exactly? He's not charming, witty, or quick on his feet during his monologue, he's terrible with guests and he always looks half asleep. I will never understand how/why ABC either chose him or why after this long he's still on the air. It's baffling!!!!"
FEEME1 said "Wow...That's foul. "Tempestt" was noticed--and missed--when the show was on and then cancelled. It had a slightly fresher approach than what's being lauded today (Rachel Raye? Please!). I don't think it would've won awards given a longer run, but it certainly didn't reek of 'middle child syndrome', either. "
lifelong said "What people do in their lives its their business..just because he is an actor( so what, that's just a job).. He is human.. let us not forget he too has emotions..shopping spree, love life.. and etc just like the rest of us.. so people that always are interested to know about actors so much.. wanna know what they do and when.. you guys dont have a f***ing life. Get a life.. a job.. a something! See you dont wanna be you!"
fed-up said "Chevy Chase was very funny when he was on SNL. That was a very funny show during the 70s, with the first set of comedians but, like Magic Johnson, Chevy Chase was a flop when he got his own show. And Alf was just too strange--he was just awful--a disaster! I really hated Alf, really did not like that character! Wasn't cute or adorable. Didn't like him at all. Still don't!"
Timo said "C'mon folks, the dude just a cool good actor. I don't care what kind of movie it is as long as Nicolas Cage or Denzel (my other obsession) are in it. His spending? I would buy all that shit especially the houses if I could afford it. Octopus and Cobra? NO. I laughed my ribs off from his admission ...."We come from a long lineage of robbers and highwaymen in Italy. Even killers." Go Nic just don't end up broke like Mike Tyson!"
majik said "eBay was made for people like this. Some of the things owned by Nicholas will go for huge money as long as it does not appear to be a firesale. I enjoy all of his movies and do hope that Mr. Cage can continue to provide the entertainment on and off screen for a very long time to come."
mickey_dees2009 said "It seems to me that some people are forgetting where we live. This is the United States of America! And as such we are entitled to freedoms. If we choose to spend our money on "weird" items, then so be it! Its our money and we can do with it as we wish. Put yourself in his shoes and you would more than likely buy what he is being criticized for. Would you like for the people or the government to tell you what you can and cannot buy or own? NO! Get off it! Nic Cage is a great actor. Period.And as far as 'helping charities , he does help by donating his time and money (money that he worked for) to charities and needy orginations. "Help the the children and people of Kenya"? For those of who still believe in God and doing what is morally right, Take care of what is in your own backyard. Clean up this country and then we will be in better shape to help others. Also, who was it that came up with the website godismichaeljackson, is a fool. Pure and simple.! That is blasphemy 100 % ! No human (dead or alive) can compare to God."

I am with you girl. Beyonce is very overrated and should stay very far from standing in front of a movie camera. No Hollywood Boulevard for her. I am black and believe Wonder Woman should stay white with blue eyes. This is what her creator had in mind. Beyonce, take a look in the mirror.

Where is Beyonce, she sucks! She's so overrated, and she really was pointless in Austin Powers. You can tell she's waiting for her lines, she sucks! Oh and Beyonce wants to play Wonder Woman, I don't think so! I'm a black woman and I feel Wonder Woman should stay a white amazon with Blue eyes, and that's my comment for the day.

alyceconrad is exactly right Madonna's work in Swept Away left me in tears...tears because I paid to see such a a piece of crap - I thought the brilliant guy ritchie might have been able to do something with her but no...her bad acting killed the movie

streisand? really? funny girl (oscar win) way we were (oscar nominated) she does great comedy (what's up doc?, owl and the pussycat, for pete's sake...) yes she looks unconvential, yes because she is such a huge star it can be hard to get past it, think bette midler, julie andrews or even frank sinatra? to put streisand on this list when there is the bounty which is madonna's film work... one good movie: evita ... but then again she did sing through the entire movie... so was she acting and singing... only one good movie ... "swept away" i guess.

I thought Eminem was good in 8 mile..but he was playing himself after all - how hard can that be?
