Un-talent?
 

Do y'all ever look at some actors, actresses, singers, rappers, models, etc. and wonder how in the world they ever got a shot at the big time? Who do you think are some Hollywood folks (old or new) that could have taken first place in an Un-Talent show sometime during their plight for stardom?

1. J-Lo: I don't care what anybody says. She can't sing. She's an okay dancer, but she really sounds horrible.

2. That little boy that played Nicholas on the Parent'hood: I have never seen worse acting. I mean, never.

3. This random man on ComicView: Somebody please say you've seen him. His name is Charles Something-or-other, and I think he's borderline mentally retarded. He is so unfunny it's ashame.

4. Mya: Her voice is so weak.

You ain't neva lied! He is just as bad as little NATE on Y&R AND the little Nicholas on Y&R and Cassie on Y&R. ugggggghhhhhh!

ROTFLMAO @U AND THIS TOPIC! Good one! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

I'll be back l8r.

Pam Grier - that woman has been around too dayum long to still sound like she is reading off chinese cue cards!!

LisaRaye - i think we know why she got in Playa's Club (and it aint the acting!)

Shemar Moore - i know i might step on some toes, but baby can NOT act!! it might be nice to look at, but when that chile opens up his mouth, i shudder!

all of the people on mtv's spyder games!!

Even though I watch Passions faithfully (because I think it is too funny), the only ones who can act are Tabitha and Timmy. Everyone else is horendous! Miguel, Charity, Sam, Theresa, Sheridon, Luis, must I go on?

Okay, I like this thread...

Ummmm...

P-Diddy's non-dancin', non-rappin', non-singin' azz... But he can produce his butt off.

J-Lo again -- she IS that bad http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif

THE WHOLE DAM' CREW ON PARENTHOOD - nuh-na' dem' mofos can act

Tori Spelling -- her daddy was wroooooong for letting her anywhere near a TV program

Pamela Anderson Lee -- big tits, no brains, no talent

Master P, he IS NOT DAMN ITALIAN!!! He cannot play the part either...
P, for goodness sake!! You ain't no damn Mob Boss, chill on the Tony Montana ish!!!

1. "J-Lo"- I think she's almost as Un-talented as her big-headed sister who's an anchorwoman on the Channel 11 morning show in New York

2. Shemar Moore- God, can he get anymore annoying?

3. Tori Spelling- I have to agree with this one too. Forget her inability to act...this girl is just plain funny looking.

4. Rosie O'Donnell- Non-acting, non-funny, Oprah Wannabe

5. Brandy's little brother-I don't even know this fool's name.

6. Ice-T- Ugghhh!!

7. Eddie Griffin- Of the "Malcolm and Eddie"
show. I find him SO annoying.

I'm sure I'll think of more later.

Well, I'm with you all on J-Lo, aslo Angie Martinez is another without talent.

The other person I think has NO talent is the girl that "dances" on the BET Show with John Sally as the Host. I think her name is Jalisa (or something like that)...she absolutely has NO talent whatsoever. I often wonder why she's there http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/confused.gif...hell, I wonder why Mr. John Sally is there too. But I do not think she has any talent.

Here is my list:

D.L. Hughley--Funny comic, great delivery on punch lines, but can't act worth jack. Case in point: The Brothers.

Bill Daily (Maj. Healy on I Dream of Jeanne, and pilot Howard Borden on the Bob Newhart show). This man is NOT funny and can't act. Also a regular on Match Game 1979-81. It's as if he literally tries too hard to be funny.

ODB - Sounds like he got his career started at a liquor store. Nuff said.

Charles Cozart - Comedian on Def Comedy Jam (1992). His monotone punchline delivery plus his stale jokes equaled a very lame comic.

No talent game show hosts/announcers:

Patrick Wayne --Tic Tac Dough 1990 (too hyper)
Pat Finn--Shop Til You Drop, Joker's Wild 1990 (Robot style hosting plus trying to get his feel on with the female contestants)
Bill Rafferty--Blockbusters 1987 (too stiff in hosting)
Rich Jeffries--Annoucer of Blockbuster 1980 & '87 (Sounds like Kermit the Frog after drinking a fifth of Hennessey)
Burton Richardson--The Nighttime Price is Right 1994 (Can say Arsenioooooo Hall! but not Come on Down!)
Rolf Benirshke--Wheel of Forture '89--former place kicker for the New England Patriots (Sounds like a nervous teenage boy, and once said at the end of the main game when two contestants were tied that he didn't have a clue what to do at that point. Suggestion: GET OFF MY SET!!!)

More later.

Girl, you aint never lied!

Oooh.. can I add errbody on MTV's Undressed?? So why is it that I watch it every night anyway?

My list:

1) Brittney Spears-It sounds like she's singing thur her nose or something

2)Kristy Swanson-She was the orginal Buffy the Vampire Slayer

3) Nicole Kidman- I know she was married to Tom Criuse and all,but she can't act her way out of a paper bag

Cuba Gooding- Can't act, overacts, works my nerves. His little brother too. Was terrible in Baby Boy.

Halle Berry- Beautiful, no doubt, but can't act worth a d^@#.

Steve Harvey- Stick to comedy, please.

That model, is her name Tara or something, played Will Smiths girlfriend for a minute, also was in Higher Learning. Also hosting one of those award shows.

Oh by the way Pam Grier is my girl. Yes she been around a long time, and I hope to look half as good when I'm her age. Acting ability is about a 6 on a 1-10 scale, but considering she started as just tits and azz in blaxpoitation, she's doing ok.

BRANDY - That heifa cannot sing, dance, or act. I want to know who told her that she could.

RAY-J - One question: how can you be a thug and Brandy's brother all at once? If your mom wouldn't even let her wear a half-top, why in the world would she let you smoke, drink, and curse? ** In my most ghetto and unclassy voice, neck rolling and all** Come on now, you ain't even hardly fooling nobody

NELLY - I am tired of that man singing all of his songs to me, I thought he was a rapper

The Entire Cast of the Film Belly - That has to be the worst acting I have ever seen. Why does DMX sound like he is rapping all of his lines?

TYRESE in Baby Boy - Honey, you can carry a tune, but trust me, you will never win an Oscar

LIL ROMEO - Self-explanatory

MISS LAURA on ComicView - She is not the least bit funny during her standup. And why is she always back in the kitchen, but I never see any signs that she's been cokking? No food, steam, dirty dishes, Nothin. What is her purpose?

Carson Daly....what is his purpose?

Shawn Wayans

Nelly

Nsync
Backstreet Boys..etc

Even though she a homegirl (Chicago) LisaRaye cannot act.

Treach

D12 ( Eminem's buddies)

Jerry Seinfield

That bald head punk-looking chubby guy that does thw news on MTV2


More to come.....

About Pamela Anderson...if any of you have watched VIP, then you should all agree that she does a very great job of acting like a total airhead.

Britney Spears--good dancing...that's about it.

Nick the blondie from BSB--yeah, he's there for his looks.

Shemar Moore--sorry if I'm offending any of his fans...but I'm still wondering why the Bells have kept him on Y&R for so long

Paula Abdul--I've wondered about her for a while. I've never been a fan of her songs..maybe the whiny-ness turned me off. She was great as a choreographer, though.

Speaking of whiny-ness...MYA. I don't know why the MLB chose HER to sing the National Anthem at the All-Star game. Maybe the performers with singing ability were already booked for that night.


**I am also an avid Passions viewer and I also agree that Tabitha and Timmy can act. "Tabitha" actually comes from a family of actresses. Her sister's Hayley Mills (Parent Trap). I also want to add Chad (Don Swaby--a total hottie!) and Ivy. I've seen "Ivy" on a bunch of LifeTime movies, and she does a great job with her roles.

EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE THEIR OWN TIMMY DOLL! Can you believe that doll's actually 19 years old in real life?

Can someone tell my girl Whitney Houston that she isn't multi-talented. The girl could sing...well before her little problems came to light and needed extra help finishing her song on the BET Awards...but she needs to leave the acting alone. I thought she was just terrible in 'Waiting to Exhale'...You know the part when she pours the drink in homeboy's face....TERRIBLE! I love you Whitney but you are no Angela Basset.

Ditto about Whitney Houston, I thought I was the only person that felt that way.
Halle Berry also ditto.
The people that Rainman listed WOW! a real serious TV addict, I can't remember any of those shows.
J-Lo
That's all I can think of right now.

[Even though I watch Passions faithfully (because I think it is too funny), the only ones who can act are Tabitha and Timmy. Everyone else is horendous! Miguel, Charity, Sam, Theresa, Sheridon, Luis, must I go on?]

I complain everyday about how bad the show is and how the only people that can act are Tabitha and Timmy. But i haven't missed an episode yet either. :-)

How about the ENTIRE Wayans family? Marlon has some potential but that is it!!!

Are you serious?! Halle Berry can act! I don't what movies you've seen her I think she did a wonderful job in...

Losing Isiah
Dorothy Dandridge
Boomerang
The movie she played in with Tommy Davidson
The movie she played in with Wesley Snipps. She played his brother's crackhead girfriend.

As you can tell I can't think of the names of the movies she starred in but I think she does a damn good job.

LMAO....How about you are SOOOOO Right!! Shawn Wayans...I didn't think his "DJing" skills were up to "Par" let alone his Acting! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

This long list of flops has not changed my mind about her acting abilities. If you are a fan, good for you, but I'm not. This is my opinion, you don't have to agree, but respect my right to have an opinion oposing yours.

Am I the only one who doesn't like City High? Ok...I like Nelly alright but what about the dude in the mask? Does he have a purpose? Who thinks that Timbaland can rap? Why do I keep tryin to watch My Kids and Me with Damon Wayans and Tisha Campbell? Am I the only one that thinks Tisha was only good in the show where she was an orphan with the other white kids?

No! You're not only one. I actually remember that show with Tisha Campbell. I think it was called "Rag to Riches" or something like that. Tisha just basically gets on my nerves, I think she knows somebody to keep getting all these good roles. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/confused.gif However, Boynce(sp)the sister from Destiny's Child has got to be the most untalented actress in the history of black female singers who turned actress. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif
Someone really needs to hip her before she really gets her feelings hurt. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/rolleyes.gif Or, maybe we should sue her and her management team for cruelty to humans. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif
You be the judge! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif

LOL, "Rags to Riches" was one of my favorite shows before it got cancelled. I guess I'm indifferent when it comes to Tisha Campbell...but I did think she was good in Little Shop of Horrors.

Whoo..I'm loving this topic..

MADONNA-can we say she got lucky or what.
Jennifer Lopez- should have stuck to dancing
Shemar Moore- good looks..but that is about it
Whitney Houston- good singer..horrid actor

I'm sure I will have more to add

Do I since tension? Okay you don't like Halle Barry, that's find with me. When I stated my opinoins in wasn't with hostile intensions. It was just a friendly disagreement. As you stated...

Shouldn't this go both ways.

YES.

NOW, moving on to the SUBJECT at hand! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/rolleyes.gif

I like Carson... he's decent-easy-on-the-eyes-host. Low talent profession, and he does "okay." Maybe that's just 'cause I think he's a cute white guy...

However I agree with you -- the other chubby guy, Dave, Dan, something-like-that...

And, I hate to put the brother down after complimenting Carson... But SWAY - on MTV news needs to announce videos.

I dunno, he can barely speak clearly...

I agree with a lot of what was said already.

Mya- Ummmmmm no....she is weak

Lil Romeo- Ummmmmmm no. He is just tryna be anotha Lil Bow Wow and it aint workin

J Lo- Stick with the dancin

Rosie- No thanks

Shawn Wayans- I dont like him and he aint cute to me eitha.

Marlon Wayans- He is a cutie!

Brittney Spears- I hate her!

D.L.- Ummmmm he aint funny!

Comicview- To me it aint that funny no more

Lil Kim- She needs to stick to rappin because even the little parts she gets in shows it still dont seem right

and lastly Damon and Tisha- I STILL cant get with that show. No matta how hard I try!

This is my opinion.

Peace and one
Queencece

This is exactly who I got on to post about. Everytime it's "ten minutes to the hour, every hour", I pray that Sway isn't doing the news so that he won't embarrass himself. Po' baby. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif

Ya'll are so right about Sway!! I feel so bad for him because he can't talk and his interviews suck!! Now, as much as I love 106th and Park, why can't AJ read?

I agree with everyone's posts so far, but this one is MY personal choice. Free can get annoying as hell sometimes, but AJ is just so......UUGGGHHHHH!!! Its like he never does anything that isn't scripted, and he doesn't even do that stuff well!!!

And I can't stand tattoo-boy on MTV2......Sway may have potential, but he really needs to work on it.

LOL. Why? ALL she did was sing. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/confused.gif

I think that Halle did well in Losing Isaiah.

Just because a movie is a box office FLOP does not or should not take away from the acting merits of an individual. Conversely, if a movie does well, that does not mean the acting was terrific.

let me get my objections out of the way first:

i move that n'sync, halle, carson and brandy be taken off the list. in my opinion they are good at what they do

now, these folks need to take it to the house:
the entire cast of saved by the bell
downtown julie brown, wubba wubba wubba?
jessie camp, the first mtv vj contest winner
free AND aj, non-reading, talking over each other, butt kissing no-talents
nelly and the lunitics, how you gon make an entire career from nursary rhymes and sit-com jingles? and what the hell does ei mean?
o-town, a made for tv boy band?
jennifer, i refuse to call her j-lo giving her anymore fake street cred- since when does having a big butt and a black boyfriend make you talented? i am so tired of the mainstream embracing african-american qualities in people who are not
bobby brown, was not the king of new edition how can he be the king of r and b?
the cast of belly, dmx did rad his lines while nas sounded like he was sight reading his
i could go on...

I agree with DSTbrat. N'Sync needs to be immediately off the list. I think people don't give them a fair chance.

LEAVE N'SYNC ALONE!!! Cause this is one soror that be feelin some "Dirty Pop", "This I Promise You", "Bye,Bye" and their other COUNTLESS Hits...to many to name http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

However you may add ABC (Another Bad Creation)...remember them? That name fit them perfectly.

Just wanted to stick up for Brandy- her last cd was bangin! Dislike her for her FAKE @&& personality if you have to, but the girl does have some singing talent- note, I said SINGING. She can not act at all! It's painful to watch, she actually hurts my eyes.

The rest of your list is COMPLETELY on point.

dstbrat....do you mean Saved By The Bell with Zach, Lisa and Screech or Saved By the Bell - The New Class? Saved By The Bell was my favorite show!!!!

Why am I watching Passions right now? The blind priest who can fight evil can't even do a wedding convincingly!!!

Brandy - the girl can sing, it's her acting that is suspect
Jah Rule - i think the industry ran out of thugs and he was a studio creation. If your gonna be a rapper then rap, but PLEASE stop trying to sing!
Ms. Cleo - the 1-900 wannabe Jamaican tarot card reader... GETS ON MY LAST NERVE!! That is the worst accent I have ever heard and it really offends me!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif
AJ from 106 and Park - serves absolutely no puropose whatsoever!! He has no personality.
Lil Romeo - Tell your father that not everything is genetic.

That's all for now, but I am sure that I will think of some more http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif
