Actors who sing!

I'd rather watch Mick Jagger in Ned Kelley than Don Johnson sing that Heartbeat song!

Actors who sing. Can't think of a good one off the top of my head.

Good singers who act : Eminem, Alicia Keys...

Depends, but usually actors who try to sing are worse.

For some reason I can't take actors who sing seriously. You'd think with the parts they play that they'd be able to assume a role as singer, but they always look phony.

Singers, who play only one role as a singer, somehow seem to be able to assume new roles as actors. Why? I have no idea. But singing is a lot like acting. I guess acting isn't like singing lol
