This website almost went up without this one! When Country Music singer, Garth Brooks was legitimately one of the biggest singers in the United States, like most artists he wanted to explore his range. We imagine he felt pigeonholed, which is why he created “Chris Gaines” who was an alter ego from the Alternative Rock world. The music he created was mediocre, though he could have easily just released this under his own name rather than put on an emo wig and eyeliner. Incidentally, this experiment would mark the beginning of his decline. The Bullet Points: Album Appeared: In the Life of Chris Gaines (1999) Actor: Garth Brooks Songs you might remember: Lost in You Why you should vote for him: It may not be remembered now, but Garth Brooks was huge at the time. Why you should not vote for him: Brooks was huge; but Gaines caused his decline. {youtube}

After his run as the replacement singer for Steel Dragon came to an end, it was time for Chris Cole to become introspective. Of course you do that in the only place possible, Seattle, where you get a haircut, wear a cardigan and whine in a coffee house. Somehow, we don’t think Chris Cole ever played arenas again. The Bullet Points: Movie Appeared: Rock Star (2001) Actors: Mark Wahlberg (Chris Cole) Songs you might remember: Colorful Why you should vote for him: Because this is Dirk Diggler and he is bright shining star! Why you should not vote for them: Actually…you can vote for Dirk Diggler on this ballot, and there are two better choices from this movie. {youtube}

We have no illusion that this a capella group from the News Radio’s lead’s College will get inducted, but when we have a quartet that has Dave Foley, David Cross and Bob Odenkirk as three quarters of the group that apparently played “BadgerJam 88”, we know we have comedic gold. The Bullet Points: TV Show Appeared: News Radio (1998) Actors: David Foley David Cross Bob Odenkirk Brian Posehn Songs you might remember: None Why you should vote for them: Come on, this is a combination of Mr. Show and the Kids in the Hall! Why you should not vote for them: There is no signature song here at all.
So what do you do when you have a successful franchise? You create a female version. The result of course, is a watered down (and frankly unnecessary) replica, but they probably have more recorded songs then your favorite bar band. The Bullet Points: Movie and TV Shows Appeared: Alvin and the Chipmunks (1983-90) Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel (2009) Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked (2011) Actors: Multiple voices used. Songs you might remember: Nothing really… Why you should vote for them: Until Alvin and the Chipmunks get in, this should never be considered. Why you should not vote for them: Even after Alvin gets in, this was really a lame female version. {youtube}
