Bruce Willis
Willis had a hit with his 1987 cover "Respect Yourself," but that doesn't mean he should keep pulling out his harmonica. 6 28

Joaquin Phoenix
Hoax or not, so far his attempts at hip-hop have consisted of a couple of disastrous club dates and a monosyllabic appearance on Letterman. 6 26

Billy Bob Thornton
Billy Bob sings country rock with his band, The Boxmasters, and thinks he's a lot like Tom Waits. Too bad no one else does. 4 26

Paris Hilton
On the plus side, Paris' singing career (which gave us "Stars," with its ridiculously bad video of Paris frolicking on the beach) keeps her away from movie sets. 3 31

Russell Crowe
Crowe borrowed his band's name - 30 Odd Foot Grunts -- from a sound dubbing term he learned while working on Virtuosity. Which is the only thing interesting about this band no one has heard of. 2 24

Eddie Murphy

Jada Pinkett Smith
Pinkett Smith's heavy-metal band Wicked Wisdom is so bad, Ozzfest fans petitioned for them not to play the music festival in 2005. -4 24

Juliette Lewis
The good news is her rock band, Juliette and the Licks, broke up earlier this year. The bad news? She's going solo. -6 24

Scarlett Johansson
That Johansson released an album of Tom Waits covers, and has a new project in the works, is just proof we allow the super-hot to get away with too much. -6 26
