Starcrossed Crossovers

Posted Nov 26th 2006 12:01PM by TMZ Staff

Some stars gracefully make the move from acting to singing and actually enjoy some success. Jamie Foxx did it with his star turn in "Ray," which prompted him to record a hit album. Other stars moved from singing to acting; Madonna was amazing in "Evita." But some stars should stick to what they do best.

The only thing memorable about Jessica Simpson's acting debut was the Daisy Dukes she wore. And while Paris Hilton has taken some heat for her singing ability, her album can be classified as a hit. Her acting "talent" in films like "House of Wax" and "The Hills" has been called the s**t, and not in a good way.

1. I don't think Paris' CD can be considered a hit.

It BOMBED.

WTF is up with you guys? On the Hilton payroll now?

2. This idea that "Paris" bombed is erroneous and wishful thinking by the Haters. Even now, she is in the top pop charts of many of the wealthy European countries.

She simply markets differently from other singers because she is a brand.That means, every time she sells something else, she also sells more records.

To date, Paris Hilton's album has already sold 500,000 copies worldwide. And it continues to sell at a steady pace.

3. Paris sucks bigtime. I don't consider her a singer. She is just a no talent socialite.

4. I want to know if TMZ is on Jessica's payroll...what is the deal with the advertisments for her hair crap? We want her to go away, but you insist on talking about her.

5. WTF! Does Jessica have a wig on? I am so sick of seeing Jessica Simpson, aka, Jessica Nicole Smithson! Her 15 minutes are long over with! TMZ, we can't stand Jessica so quit plastering her face all over your site!!!

6. JESSICA SIMPSON...has no talent. She can't sing worth sh*t...and definitely can't act. Her fan base is 12 year olds.

I could shove a 5" sewer pipe down her throat with no problem...who has a mouth that big.

Ashlee is SO MUCH MORE PRETTIER THAN JESSICA.

Jess is a has been. Better save your money, all of it, before Papa Joe takes it all. PLUS SHE IS REALLY STUPID...AND THAT'S THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER.

Nick is so much better off without the dumb and fluff...he's a real guy, wants a real relationship with a real family which Jessica could never provide him.

She is purely dumb and surely an ass...equals...dumbass.

NOBODY LIKES JESSICA..LET HER GO AWAY TMZ.

7. The whole Simpson family are freaks. The mom and dad go EVERYWHERE with the daughters, who are adults. If her father would have backed out of Nick and Jessica's wedding, or weekends away or whatever, their marriage may have stood a chance. Nick sure moved up. Doesn't anyone else think it's weird that Jessica's dad gives interviews about the fact that his daughters boobs are real? That's plain creepy. He's gross. Some minister he is/was. Aren't ministers supposed to recognize trouble and help? Not this guy, he's got his hands in every part of his kids lives, and so does their mother. What freaks, have lives of your own. And for your daughters to WANT you to hang out with them 24/7, they are as sick at you.

8. Paris has as much talent as K-fed, which means NONE AT ALL.

9. ahhhhhh, i luv it! Jessica finally suceeded in fighting her way to the "top", then fu*ked it up. You really would have thought she would do it right, but she didn't, and now look who's back, stealing the spotlight once again......

and the rat-race continues.

10. um... that the by far the freakiest picture of J-Simp i have EVER seen! She looks like Linda Blair from the Exorcist.

*shivers*

11. You forgot to add Beyonce Knowles to your list of musicians who can't act, as well as 50 Cent and The Game. I'm sure there are others. However, you neglected to mention Ludacris as a musician who can act.

12. This is TRULY the most hideous picture of J-Simpson that I have ever seen!

13. I have even more respect for Christina Aguilera, b/c she hasn't tried to act, or sell me perfume or any other CRAP.

Dea- remember the Europeans LOVE David Hasselhoff as a singer too, before you praise the "talents" of The Whore-ess.

14. Ummm, J. Skankson is no longer liked by 12 year olds, her "fan base," if it exists at all, is 50-year old bald men who can't get a date. Ah, well she'll always have her implants to keep daddy on side...
