When Steve Smith and his friends (Snot, Barry & Toshi) formed a Boy Band named Boy Jam they were signed and merged with Boy Bomb and Boyz with Mouthz to form Boyz 12. Their sexual entendre song, Girl, You Need a Shot of B12 did sound like something that would have been produced by a Boy Band producer in the real world.

Bette Midler may have been a great singer, but her co-workers considered a great pain in the ass on the set of “Jinxed”. She played a lounge singer which did allow her to show her singing skills, though it was a film that was largely ignored; much like most lounge singers are.

Played by Tim Robbins, Bob Roberts was a great political satire where the title character was an ultra conservative Republic politician running for senate in Pennsylvania. In the mockumentary, Roberts got his message across through his folk singing, which in itself flies in the face with anything you would associate with the Republican Party. This was a highly respected film, and one whose political message is just as relevant today as it was when it was made. That fact, and the original music might make this a viable candidate; especially if Bob Roberts campaigns for it.
The Bullet Points:
TV Show and Movie Appeared:
Saturday Night Live (1986)
Bob Roberts (1992)
Actor:
Tim Robbins
Songs you might remember:
I Want to Live
Complain
Retake America
Why you should vote for him:
The songs were unique, it helped tell the story, and the satire (just of being a folksinger himself) is brilliant.
Why you should not vote for him:
As great as this movie was, somehow a Right Wing Folk Singer does not seem like it belongs.

From the cult film, Ghost World we saw a brief scene featuring Blues Hammer, a “Jock Rock” type of band that was despised….well at least it was by Steve Buscemi. Now if Nucky Thompson doesn’t like them, why should we?

Ghost World (2001)
Actors:
Steve Pierson
Jake La Botz
Johnny Irion
Nate Wood
Songs you might remember:
Pickin’ Cotton Blues
Why you should vote for them:
We would imagine this would be a possibility if you liked this movie.
Why you should not vote for them:
We think even people who liked this film, may not vote for them.
