Starcrossed Crossovers

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.
Jessica Simpson: Click to launch
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.

31. Jessica Simpson's azz was padded for those shorts. She can't sing! I'm glad Nick said goodbye to her. Nobody deserves someone as ditzy as her.

32. #2: Paris can't sing (or act) for sh*t. That's not "hating" it's called the deep, dark ugly truth.

As for Paris the Whore's cd being a "hit," can I ask what brand of Alpo the folks at TMZ are smoking???

33. We all know that Jessica, Ashlee, Paris and Britney can't sing or act. They have very smart people who know how to market them and they know fools will buy it. All four lip synch, but only Jessica's idiot sister was dumb enough to get caught.

39. She looks like the cover of "Frampton Comes Alive!" there. And the mere fact that I know who Peter Frampton is should tell you how I feel about her.

40. People give Paris Hilton way too much credit..for the person that says that Paris markets differently is bull..More like she pays people to support her..She's rich..She hasn't worked a day in her life..she doesn't even know what a broom is...and if anyone listens to her music..they must have something terribly wrong with their ears...

41. They forgot my favorite singer turned actor. Ice Cube, Boyz in the Hood, Three Kings, the guy is really good.

And PS, Paris's cd is all computerized, that is not her voice. If you want a good cd get some Janis Joplin, Melissa Etheridge, Alanis Morrissette.

42. HOLY CRAP! That is one SCARY picture, she needs to shut her mouth and get rid of Ken, if he lets her out of the house looking like that!!!!

43. Jessica has really f*cked it up for herself..she forgot that Nick is the one who made her famous so he should really be entittled to half her fortune..

i did like Jessica but she's now gone all weird..she and Nick were cute together though she f*cked it up by thinking she was maybe too good for him since she was the one making all the money..MONEY cant buy LOVE JESS..and he loved you.//
