A lot of celebrities try to go from end of the business to the other and sometimes it works out very good for them but most times it just doesn’t make sense and totally flops. The Frisky have come up with 13 celebrities who have tried to cross over into the rap game and have failed miserably. Here is 10 of those 13, to see the full list head over to The Frisky .
Spencer Pratt
In 2009, Spencer dropped his first single, “I’m a Celebrity,” and started going by the name The Great White. I guess adding “shark” would have been redundant? The song featured lyrics like, “I’m a celebrity/ Five star everything/ My money is attached to me/ Just like my wedding ring.” Ahh, what a difference two years makes.
Joaquin Phoenix
We weren’t sure what to think when Joaquin announced that he was quitting acting to become a rapper and decided to ditch his razor for, oh, about 365 days. Luckily, we now know that this was all a ruse for a documentary called “I’m Still Here.” Because we don’t think his lyrical flow would have taken him so far.
Jada Pinkett Smith
Jada seems sweet, but beneath that petite exterior beats the heart of a heavy metal rapper. Hey, that’s what marrying Will Smith and having three kids would do to any woman. In 2005, she became the front woman for a rap/metal band called Wicked Wisdom. Here they are performing “Something Inside of Me.”
Mr. T
In 1984, Mr. T released the song “Treat Your Mother Right.” Kids, you can insult the crap out of each other, but he pities the fool who makes a yo’ momma joke. Apparently, Ice-T arranged this track?
Brian Austin Green
We’re still not exactly sure why the makers of “Beverly Hills, 90210” were so insistent on showcasing Brian Austin Green’s vocal and dance skillz on the show. But hey, it brought us incredible moments like this one. I would bet money that Brian himself wrote this song, because in 1996 he released a rap album called One Stop Carnival. Let’s just say the critics didn’t like it as much as they love Brenda’s socks in this video.
John Cena
WWE wrester John Cena liked to drop beats in and out of the ring. In this video for “FU Rap,” he puts the verbal smackdown on Brock Lesnar. For a wrestler, this dude hasn’t got all the sense knocked out of him—he’s kind of a poet. Check out this rhyme: “I’m rockin’ Play Station 2, you can’t figure out Atari.” Oh, snap!
Chet Haze
This face might not be instantly recognizable to you—but this is Chet Haze, aka Tom Hank’s 20-year-old son. A Northwestern student, he did this collegiate-themed take on a Wiz Khalifa track and earned quite a few fans. “It’s not the typical for a hip-hop artist,” he said, when asked about his background. “But it’s 2011. The nature of hip-hop has changed so much the last few years. Nowadays artists come from all walks of life. Everyone has their own story to tell.” He is apparently halfway through making his EP.
David Faustino
I had a crush on David Faustino back in the “Married With Children” days. His shining moment of glory on the show was when he transformed into “Grandmaster B,” Bud Bundy’s rapper alter ego. But like Brian Austin Green, David tried to bring his rapping into real life. In 1992, he released Balistyx and made this video for “I Told Ya.” Oh dear—the earrings.
Ron Jeremy
Porn star Ron Jeremy’s “Freak of the Week” actually managed to find a spot on the Billboard chart. The video features oodles of girls in thongs—plus John Wyane Bobbitt and Joey Buttafuoco. Man, the ‘90s were scary.
Mel Brooks
Mel wants to teach you a history lesson. Back in 1983, the writer/director/producer recorded this number about Hitler, featuring shirtless, dancing Nazis and scantily clad backup singers. I guess he was trying to rehash the “Springtime for Hitler” climax of “The Producers?” This was all for his movie “To Be or Not to Be.” Luckily, his rapping career never was.
I really wish celebrities would stick to the things they are good at instead of doing anything to make a bit of money. Although all of these do bring me a bit of amusement.
Ever since the original 90210 finished, Brian Austin Green has only been known as the man who dated and then married Megan Fox. He now has an acting gig on the new season of Desperate Housewives but he is still mainly known only as her husband.
So it’s no surprise that in his interview for the new issue of Details magazine they spent half the time speaking about his marriage to Fox. Here is part of that interview…
You’ve married Megan Fox and turned her into a stepmom—not the role most of us imagine her in. “She is absolutely my better half in parenting. She just gets it. It’s instinctual for her. She loves my son, Kassius. And from the time we started dating—you know, she was 18—she stepped in and took control. It’s unbelievable. At 18, I was like, “Hey, which club is open tonight? And how cool do my pants look? Can I sneak a drink across the bar without getting caught?”
Your relationship was often described as on-again, off-again. “We’ve been together for six years. Find a picture of one of us with any other boyfriend or girlfriend—I challenge you. You’ll only find pictures of her doing press with Shia LaBeouf or me with my son. That’s it. We never once dated anyone else or did anything else.”
Did you ever try to give her advice on navigating the world of celebrity? “You know, in the beginning, she didn’t really want to hear the comparisons, because it was her own crazy road, and it was overwhelming, and she wanted to figure it all out on her own. But now we sit and we share stories, and we’ve found the commonality of it all. It’s the most backwards, fucked-up love story you’ve ever heard. And it worked. And the day that I said, “I do,” I’ve never been more sure of anything in my life. And it was the absolute perfect start to what we hope will be an amazing life together.”
She’s a lot more famous than you are right now. Is that intimidating? “I know the normal male thing is the man works and is successful and brings home the paycheck. I don’t know who the hell set it up, but it’s what people expect. I just don’t care. I hated being famous during 90210. I’m not an extrovert. I’m 37. I have a beautiful wife. I have an amazing 8-year-old son. I love acting, but this is just my job. Fuck, next year I could book some crazy movie that blows up and things could shift completely. And I guarantee you at that point she’ll say, “Fuck, thank God. You go do all that shit now. I’m sick of it.”
It must suck that even when he is working on a TV show, people only want to ask about his wife.

Megan Fox obviously isn’t ashamed of hand-me-downs.
The actress has taken to transforming her wardrobe by borrowing T-shirts from hubby Brian Austin Green‘s 8-year-old son, Kassius. And she’s been doing it for years, according to the Daily Mail.
Earlier this month, the ‘Jonah Hex’ star showed off her taut tummy in Kassius’s green “Voltron: Defender of the Universe” shirt. But this isn’t the first time.
Fox also bared her belly back in 2008, proving herself a force to be reckoned with, in the boy’s snug white ‘Star Wars’ tee.
If I could fit in something that small, I would wear it too. And if Kassius were smart, he’d put those Fox-worn shirts on eBay, pronto!
Following in the steps of Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green by secretly getting married, Penélope Cruz and Javier Bardem have revealed they had a secret wedding.
A rep for Cruz confirms they got married two weeks ago in the Bahamas during a private ceremony that was held at a friend’s house. Only a smell few members of their family were in attendance.
If you care about any of that wedding dress shit then you might want to know that she wore a dress designed by John Galliano.
I guess this puts a stop to the lesbian rumors about Penélope Cruz.

It’s been over a week since Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green got married in a secret ceremony in Hawaii so I’m pretty shocked we’re only getting wedding photos now. But here they are.
Entertainment Tonight somehow got their hands on the wedding photos – which we all know that means they most likely bought the photos from the newlyweds for a nice lump sum.
The only guest and only witness for the ceremony was Brian’s son Kassius, all three of them were dressed in white and in case you care – she wore an Armani dress.

Megan Fox has gone ahead and shattered the dreams of every red-blooded American by going to Hawaii and marrying her longtime boyfriend, Brian Austin Green.
The couple were married late last week at the Four Seasons Resort on Hawaii’s Big Island. This is the first marriage for both Megan, 24, and Brian, 36, but Brian has an eight-year-old son, Kassius, with actress Vanessa Marcil.
Congratulations to the happy couple, blah blah blah. I hate you, Brian.

Megan Fox has been engaged to fiance Brian Austin Green before, but just happened to break things off with him just last year. They eventually got back together and got engaged, just today.
Coincidentally, it was June 15, 2009 that Megan announced to “The Sun” that she was “currently what you would call single I guess.” Suuuure. It seems a little fishy if you ask me. Sounds to me like they never broke up at all, considering that she was still spending time with his son, Kassius.
Either way, Megan is officially off the market now as her rep has said, “Yes, she is engaged.”
So all of you fellas who wanted to bed Megan and her grossly inflated lips are out on your butts. David Silver has already staked his claim on his territory and he’s not letting up anytime soon. Just when you thought they parted ways “just friends”…

Uberhottie Megan Fox and her boyfriend (that I want to punch in the face) Brian Austin Green have made a cool little video to promote awareness of California Governator Arnold Schwarzenegger‘s plan to cut school funding by a couple billion bucks.
Since it was uploaded to Funny or Die I expected it to actually be, you know, funny. It isn’t. There are a couple attempts at humor, but no. Not funny. It’s still a good message, and it’s nice to see a couple of people in Hollywood trying to stand up for something worthwhile, even if Megan Fox does start the video off showing that she’s a vapid douchenozzle that won’t sign autographs for her fans, even if they are dying little boys.
Oh well, she’s still one of the hottest creatures on the planet.
Megan Fox is featured in the new issue of Harper’s Bazaar UK and she is insisting that she has only had sex with two men which includes her childhood sweetheart and on-and-off again boyfriend Brian Austin Green.
The actress, who has in the past openly discussed being a sexual animal in the bed, says that the idea of going out and getting drunk in some club and then taking a guy home turns her stomach.
On sex and one night stands: “I can never have sex with someone that I don’t love, ever, the idea makes me sick. I’ve never even come close to having a one-night stand.”
On being a stepmother to Green’s son: “I am a stepmother to the fullest extent, I have looked after Kassius since he was three and he has no memory of life without me. For some reason, no one wants to look at me that way, but I am responsible [for him] and I’ve never struggled with that, from bedtime stories to the school run.”
On being a media sexpot: “My biggest regret is that I’ve assisted the media in making me into a cartoon character. I don’t regret what has happened to me, but I regret the way I have dealt with it.”
On her career: “Really it’s about reading and loving something. It’s not about blockbusters or money, Sure, I’m tied into a franchise that makes so much money, but that means my other projects can be for love. From here on in, I want to make films that I want to watch myself.”
Yeah right, keep telling yourself that Megan Fox.

Spike have come up with yet another genius list, the top 10 hottest chicks who are dating ugly guys. The good thing about this list is that for us regular folk it gives us hope we can hook up with a hot rich celebrity.
10. Anna Faris and Chris Pratt
Bubbly blonde Anna Faris rushed down the aisle for the second time over the summer, marrying actor Chris Pratt. The couple reportedly tied the knot on July 9th in Bali after dating for a relatively short period of time. Pratt has appeared as a series regular on TV shows such as Everwood, The OC, and Parks and Recreation.
9. Malin Ackerman and Roberto Zincone
When Malin Ackerman met little-known Italian musician Roberto Zincone, she didn’t speak any Italian and his English was spotty. Instead they communicated through the language of love and with the help of a small bilingual dictionary. The star of Watchmen married her pocket-rocket Italian stallion in a fairytale wedding in the summer of 2007.
8. Paulina Porizkova and Ric Ocasek
Paulina Porizkova is a former model and actress who was recently a judge on America’s Next Top Model. The model has had a long and distinguished career modeling for magazines such as Sports Illustrated and Playboy. She’s also dabbled with acting and written a book. With such accomplishment you’d think she would be able to have her pick of men. So who does this Czech beauty choose? A man that looks like a walking skeleton.
7. Kristy Hinze and James H. Clark
Kristy Hinze is an internationally known Aussie model who has modeled for Sports Illustrated and Victoria’s Secret. She also hosts the Australian version of Project Runway. Early this year Hinze set tongues wagging across Australia when she got hitched to Silicon Valley billionaire James H. Clark, who at age 65 is more than double Kristy’s age. In the couple’s wedding photographs it looks like Kristy is standing with the father of the bride, not the groom. The only thing that gives it away is Clark’s huge smile. Even with his billions, this guy knows he’s a lucky man.
6. Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green
There is no question that Megan Fox is hot. She oozes sex with her pouty lips and piercing eyes. Fox knows what her male audience likes and draws them in with her tantalizing tales of forbidden lesbian love and how she’d like to get it on like an ox with Olivia Wilde. The truth is Ms. Fox is all talk and what proves it is her relationship with a washed-up teen television actor.
Brian Austin Green isn’t technically “ugly,†but let’s face it, he’s Brian Austin Green and she’s Megan Fox. It’s like if you went to buy a sandwich, could have any sandwich in world, and you settle for ham (without mayo or mustard). Now don’t get me wrong, this dude used to be cool, once, but that was way back in the 1990s when he was spinning discs and making out with Tori Spelling on the original Beverly Hills 90210. Now he’s simply the guy who stole Fox’s best years.
5. Heidi Klum and Seal
Heidi Klum is married to the British singer Seal and, by all accounts, they have a wonderful relationship and are very much in love. That said, Seal’s face is horribly disfigured from a childhood form of lupus called discoid lupus erythematosus, a condition where the immune cells attack body tissue. If not treated, it can form horrendous scarring, as in Seal’s case.
4. Jamie-Lynn Sigler and Jerry Ferrara
“It’s hard to believe that Jamie-Lynn Sigler is dating Turtle from Entourage in real life, but it’s true. She and Jerry Ferrara hooked up shortly after meeting on set and filming their first scene together.
Jamie-Lynn recently dished the dirt on the relationship to Hollywood Scoop, saying, “This is the first time I’ve ever dated anyone in the industry, and it’s kind of nice. It’s nice to have someone that understands kind of what you do, it’s a thing that we have in common a thing that we share, it’s all wonderful all good. There’s nothing wrong with it.†Aww, how sweet.
3. Katy Perry and Travis McCoy
Katy Perry has been dating Travis McCoy, the lead singer of kidz hip-pop boy band Gym Class Heroes, since early 2008. It’s a pairing that doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. Katy Perry is bright, bubbly, pleasant on the eye, and sweet as pie. Mr. McCoy looks like he was just released from prison after serving time for cruelty against music.
2. Marisa Miller and Griffin Guess
Marisa Miller is one of the hottest women in the world, yet she’s married to a dude who can be charitably described as “incredibly douchey.†Seriously, what grown man spends that much time shaping and styling their hair? Why would you even want hair like that? To top it off, Marisa’s man has a seriously douchey name – Griffin Guess. To be fair, most men would walk around with a sense of arrogance and cocksureness if they’d landed Ms. Miller.
1. Christina Aguilera and Jordan Bratman
Life may be blissful for Ms. Aguilera, but her fans have not taken kindly to Mr. Aguilera’s looks. He has been described by fans as looking like a “monkey†and “hideously ugly.†Ouch. Now I can understand that a guy doesn’t need to be an Abercrombie model or an action hero to land a beautiful woman. Heck, even Lyle Lovett managed to score Julia Robert for a hot second. However, truth be told, it’s obvious that Jordan Bratman has gotten into numerous fights with the ugly stick and lost them all.”
I’d agree with most of these but considering that they put Katy Perry and Travis McCoy on this list and they aren’t dating anymore, they should have put Marilyn Manson and Dita Von Teese on here. Thoughts?

In a new interview for “Esquire”, “Transformers” actress Megan Fox has revealed that she’s bisexual.
She says that even though she’s bisexual, she wouldn’t be with a woman who’s also bisexual.
She says, “I think people are born bisexual and they make subconscious choices based on the pressures of society. I have no question in my mind about being bisexual. But I’m also a hypocrite. I would never date a girl who was bisexual, because that means they also sleep with men, and men are so dirty that I’d never want to sleep with a girl who had slept with a man.”
This isn’t the first time Megan has drawn questions about her sexuality. The actress, who’s currently dating Brian Austin Green, has said that she had a fling with a stripper, but said that she’s not a lesbian.
She adds, “I just think that all humans are born with the ability to be attracted to both sexes. I mean, I could see myself in a relationship with a girl – Olivia Wilde is so sexy she makes me want to strangle a mountain ox with my bare hands. She’s mesmerizing. And lately I’ve been obsessed with Jenna Jameson, but… oh boy.”
