So...who are some of the best, and not so best, attempts at musicians thinking they can act?
I'll start with the good:
Lady Gaga-She was acting before you even knew who she was. She appears in an episode of The Sopranos.
Justin Timberlake- This guy was fantastic in the little seen movie In Time. I was VERY surprised.

And speaking of The Hunger Games.... I'm still not sure I like Lenny Kravitz in that.
Probably not his fault-- it's just not how I imagined that character.

By the way, Mick Jagger was not bad at all in Ned Kelly! In an interview from the time, where he was promoting the movie, he claimed that the character would look nothing like him and that he'd be almost unrecognizable to his fans, but of course that's not the case at all. 😁 It would take more than a beard to disguise this face.  |

Did I mention that Joan Jett was in Big Driver?
It was a minor role, but she was pretty good.
I know I've seen her in other movies, but all I can think of right now is that one where she sang with Michael. J Fox.

I got a kick out of Tom Petty's part in "The Postman"

How about Nancy Wilson's cameo in Fast Times at Ridgemont High? Does this count as acting?
She appears at the 40 sec mark in this clip.

Actually if you remember that episode of Millennium, all 4 original guys from Kiss have tried to act....
I looked for a clip, but I was laughing too much to find a good one.

I was actually trying to scour the interwebs for pix of their historic appearance, but those are hard to come by. There's always this guy. |

I prefer a musician who acts over an actor who plays music
