  • Often we find ourselves amazed at how often musicians become great actors; and how often actors are awful at music. With that said, Madonna, Elvis and Bob Dylan proved that not all musicians could act, and in the case of Dylan, he thankfully only tried it once. In “Hearts of Fire”, he played Billy Parker, a reclusive mumbling singer that had to be a “stretch” for him as an actor. The film was actually so bad, Dylan himself wants nothing to do with it, but since this is the legendary Dylan, we had to put him on the ballot.

  • Actors: Bob Dylan
  • Songs you may remember: None. And neither does he.
  • Why you should vote:: Well…this is Bob Dylan after all.
