I don't agree with that.
Ludacris has been in great movies, and his acting wasn't terrible at all.

 

[xwolverine2]

bryan singer must never act

 

[Chris Wallace]

I don't agree with that.
Ludacris has been in great movies, and his acting wasn't terrible at all.

Agreed. I liked DMX & Eminem too; although Marshall was just basically playing himself.

 

[Karea07]

Yeah, Ludacris is good

 

[Ebil Gig]

50 Cent
Paris Hilton(yes, she is a singer now)

 

[Karea07]

Paris Hilton should stop EVERYTHING.

I think Bon Jovi did all right in Cry Wolf (?) playing a college professor of all things. And I think Beyonce has potential. I want to see how she'll fare in Dreamgirls. Janet also wasn't bad in Nutty Professor 2. And I think she did fine as Penny on Good Times, Charlene on Diff'rent Strokes, and then on Fame. I don't know if she should attempt to carry a movie again like Poetic Justice, but in a small role she's okay.

 

[Chris Wallace]

And even though I never saw his movie, I think it's safe to add him:
Justin Timberlake.

Beyonce's been terrible in everything I've seen her in. As for Janet, Penny was an abused child, (something she knew a little bit about) Charlene was a teenage girl whose character presented no real challenges-anybody could've played her. And on Fame she played a singer. I always say the way to tell if a singer can act is if they play a singer. 1-they're not stepping far out of reality, & 2-they'll be singing, which gives us less time to watch them trying to act.
Come to think of it, Charlene was a singer too.
