Favorite singer-turned-actress
Several music stars have tries their hand at acting, like Madonna, Cher, Whitney Huston, J-Lo (...or was it the other way around?), Lauryn Hill...etc. Which one is your favorite?
IMO, Cher was the most successful. Moonstruck, Mask, Mermaids - she's a fantastic actress. |

Bette Midler
Cher Lauryn Hill I didnt even think about Lauryn Hill until you mentioned her. Bette and Cher were always the only ones I considered. Whitney Houston did pretty well for herself too. |

I'll say Barbra Streisand with Bette Midler a close second.

Not sure which career came first, but Julie Andrews was both a wonderful singer and actress.
