Extremely huge in Music but become more popular in Acting

[Skibidi Bop Bop]

To clarify, this artist is already huge in the music scene, but their success in acting is twice as big. My example is Lady Gaga. But for J.Lo as far as I know she became huge in movie first before so she is exempted. Who else do you know? I mean to the point that people forgot they used to sing like Will Smith.

Barbra Streisand

Jesse McCartney...? He's the first person that comes to my mind for singers that are more well-known for their acting career, although considering that very specific description, I don't think he counts since his success as a teen pop singer was fairly brief.

But for me Jesse's status in both acting in Music is Fair. Not really huge.

Can we consider Jessica Simp in this category? Or Jamie Foxx as he already made 2 number hits.

maybe selena gomez? but she’s a bit different because she started out in acting then transitioned to music

Cher was big in music, then got big in acting, then had a musical comeback.

Kris Kristofferson?

Gaga is not an example because she is still most famous for being a musician rather than an actress.

To be honest. I thought Cher is an Actress. I was born in year 1999 coincidentally she was number 1 in the year end.

Fair enough maybe because she won so many major awards in acting later on her career.

I don't think so. The only act I can consider so far is Will Smith. Maybe Jamie Fox. Asterisk for Gaga.

I think she's huge if she started during digital Era however her chart performance is moderate. HD also is doing acting and music simultaneously same with Miley Cyprus ang Jack Efron.

Mandy Moore - I wouldn’t consider her extremely huge in music, but she was definitely a successful musician who achieved far more success as an actor

Reba McEntire and Dolly Parton have also had huge success as actors, especially lately
