IGN issued a list of "Eight Awful Albums by Actors" on Wednesday, which features musical vanity projects that went awry. "For every Zooey Deschanel, there's a Paris Hilton," asserts the entertainment site. Teen idols from the '80s and '90s were slammed the hardest, including Brian Austin Green, Jennifer Love Hewitt and Corey Feldman. However, A-List celebrities were not spared from IGN's scorn, and releases by Scarlett Johansson and Bruce Willis were thoroughly panned. The article is also filled with delightful trivia -- did you know Stacy Ferguson (Fergie of the Black Eyed Peas) and Ice-T appear on Mr. T's Be Somebody... or Be Somebody's Fool?
See below for the full list:
Scarlett Johansson, Anywhere I Lay My Head
Brian Austin Green, One Stop Carnival
David Hasselhoff, Looking for... The Best of David Hasselhoff
Jennifer Love Hewitt, Let's Go Bang
Bruce Willis, The Return of Bruno
Mr. T, Be Somebody... or Be Somebody's Fool
Corey Feldman, Former Child Actor
Leonard Nimoy, The Way I Feel
I actually like Scarlett's singing
Leave Billy Bob alone. And no list could be complete without Heartbeat by Don Johnson.
My pops owns heartbeat on vinyl,, he has yet to live down my discovery of that record..
Does Jennifer Love Hewitt really have an album called "Let's Go Bang"?
My brothers, sister and I had that Mr.T album growing up. We listen to over and over on a family trip my dad got sick of it and threatened to throw it out the window.
Nice list, but has anyone heard the album by Crispin Glover (the dad in "Back to the Future")? The title: "Big Problem Does Not Equal the Solution. The Solution = Let It Be." People have said it was horrific, but the Amazon reviews are mixed: http://www.amazon.com/Problem-Does-Equal-Solution-Solution/dp/B000003BG6
I think Crispin Glover's record is intentionally awful, so it doesn't count? I actually loved the Scarlett Johansson. Think there are bigger vanity projects than an obscure Tom Waits cover album.
