Most washed up performer?

[Bossy Monkey]

Poll question: Most washed up performer?

As in formerly famous actor, singer or other more or less famous person. So let's not have any jokes about porno stars having to wash up after (or during) every scene.

Inspired by Sci Fi Channel showing two separate Judd Nelson straight to Sci Fi or straight to video (which is worse?) this afternoon.

[Quantess]

17. No way!

The Stones are old, but they still rock! And, they made a musical anti-B*sh statement! Remember this?

18. Yeah, I remember

but I was never a fan in the least bit...and I'll live it at that...:) But on another note, how can people be voting for Fox Mulder!!! I wanted to vote for MJ, but that wasn't an option when I first saw the poll....

21. Duchovny did the "House of D"

which stank, so I hear. I had an idea that maybe that film was similar to "Showgirls", which was simultaneously terrible and entertaining, but I hear that "House of D" was just plain terrible.

[Broken_Hero]

22. Never heard of House of D...

but the X-files, imo was great...I only got season 1 on dvd, but I'm to broke to get any more!...:)

[begin_within]

5. Vanilla Ice

[Left Is Write]

6. So far, there's only been one Mrs. Federline.

[Bossy Monkey]

13. I'll change it then...

but you know who I meant.:)

[LostInAnomie]

7. Dennis Miller

I caught his act on HBO. You can tell that his heart just isn't in it anymore. He's probably regretting the past 5 years.

[havocmom]

8. Roger that

[Lethe]

12. i don't want to get off on a rant here

[Swamp Rat]

16. Not necessarily. Were the Stones or Stewart still taking risks, they wouldn't be washed up

Of the actors, by and large they are washed up through no fault of their own, but rather due to typecasting. Pointing out that they are washed up isn't to say that they are necessarily bad, nor is it necessarily a matter of pointing fingers and laughing. I feel great sympathy for most of them.

Anyway, thanks for kicking the thread.

20. You are bashing artists and performers, for no good reason.

But I am sure you feel much better, now. ;)

[Bossy Monkey]

23. And you are jumping to conclusions

What the hell is wrong with being washed up? Most of my heroes have never been successful enough to even be considered for washed up status, yet they're loved by millions, or hundreds of thousands, or thousands, or hundreds, which is a lot better than you or I will likely do. All being washed up means is that you were successful in pop culture and now you're less so. Nothing bad about it, nothing for them to feel bad about, nothing I'm gloating over. Nothing to make me feel better or worse about; nothing that affects me in any way, shape or form.

But of course thanks for kicking my thread again. Maybe you should ask yourself why this is such an issue for you? It certainly seems to make you feel better to jump to the conclusion that I'm a bitter failure gloating over the fall of my betters. You're only half right; I'm a rather happy-go-lucky failure.:)

10. Tom Cruise!

I can't believe you forgot Tom Cruise!

[WeRQ4U]

11. Not sure on that list.....probably MJ

I'd like to add Ozzy. His show seems almost sad now.

[swag]

19. And I had thought Shecky Greene was past his "sell by" date. Great list.

[donheld]

25. David Duchovny: I washed him myself so

I know he's washed up really well :evilgrin: That is what you ment isn't it? :shrug:

[donheld]

26. Any poll like this without Tom Cruise on it is worthless

:bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce:

[BlueIris]

27. Had to go with Mr. Duchovny.

David...egh.

[The Anti-Neo Con]

28. I said Mrs. Federline

It's hard to even have a career anymore when you're constantly knocked up.

[Kutjara]

29. Natalie Wood?

Sorry, that was evil. I apologize.

[Robeson]

30. OMG! That was bad.....

...quick witted, but bad...;) :rofl: :spank:

[bridgit]

31. of this group most differently Duchovny, dude never knew how to deliver...

a line in the 1st place

[ikojo]

32. Um....David Duchovny is hot!!

He was awesome in the X Files. Too bad he, like so many actors on successful shows, got too full of himself

[bridgit]

33. no he's not & no he wasn't, i'm in the theather...you mumble lines...
