| Great Actress/Singer at the same time? I was wondering. do you think it's possible to be a great actress & a singer at the same time. And which female actress/singer do you think has the best acting AND singing talent? I started thinking about this after I found out that Jennifer Landon (daughter of Michael Landon of 'Highway to Heaven', 'Little House on the Prairie', & 'Bonanza' fame) who followed her dad's acting career and really did well in the daytime soap AWS (As the World Turns) went on to launch a singing career. I believe she only has 1 song out right now, called Slide, but it's really good. You can check it on iTunes if you like. Any thoughts?" | |||

| I've considered the same, but I don't know too many that actually have careers in both....the first name that comes to mind with a beautiful singing voice and a good acting career would be Zooey Deschanel....but now that I think...Ewan McGregor, Victor Garber, and perhaps Nicole Kidman....all who have great singing voices, but no real career in singing.... but sticking just to actresses, Zooey Deschanel and Nicole Kidman | |||

| Beyonce comes to mind. She's only did like 3 major movies if i remember right with Dreamgirls being the 3rd 1. And each of her movies has been different for her characterwise so i think she's proven herself as an actress. And we all know she's a great singer. And I think Aaliyah would've been such a huge star in movies if she had the chance. She was the only good thing in Romeo must die and QOTD lol __________________ No, we're too simple for that.

| Aaliyah would have been a great actress. She'd already made the transition; if only she had the chance. ![]() __________________ I don't understand your heart, it's easier to be apart. ♥ Now that all my faith is gone.

| I think that Julie London is a great example of someone that was great as an actress (Emergency!) and as a singer. I love her sexy sound! | |||

![]() I'm not a fan of the younger actor/artists...like Hilary Duff, Lindsay Lohan, etc. Mandy Moore is probably the only one I can stand. And that's probably because she's not a publicity ho. ![]() | |||
