Rumer Willis, Joaquin Phoenix and other celebs who don't deserve albums
editor
A few weeks ago we were really annoyed with Scarlett Johansson’s
attempt at a music career. But this week came news of not one but two celebs wanting to head to the studio. Ninteen-year-old Rumer Willis (daughter of Bruce and Demi) is “in talks” with music executives who are intrigued by her “deep, husky” voice. "With the right production and material, she could put out something solid and already people are talking,” says a music insider. Next comes Joaquin Phoenix, who admittedly did impress us with his Johnny Cash impersonation in
Walk the Line. But is that enough to carry a solo career? No matter—he’s already working with Britpop star/Charlatans frontman Tim Burgess on his debut. We feel bad for all the struggling musicians trying to make it—Hollywood is butting in on their turf! We've got a word for all you actors looking to record an album: just because Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Minnie Driver, Kevin Bacon, Billy Bob Thornton, Gina Gershon and countless others have tried, it doesn’t mean it’s okay. In fact, take a lesson from their failures and give up now! [

Wow...gotta to agree completely with vixenmisa. I still can't even understand what Rumer Willis is famous for other than having a stupid name and famous parents. I guess she couldn't crack it in acting and she's not pretty enough to be a model so they're going to make her a pop star. Another cd that will go straight to the bargain bin, right next to Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan. Someone needs to start telling these idiot celebs and wannabes "NO" and spare us another lame vanity project cd.
