Musicians as actors.

[BoyScoutKevin]

How did you know what I was thinking? On the earlier post of actors who also sang, I was thinking to myself of singers who also acted. And here are some of them, excluding those already mentioned, and those who appeared in musicals.

Singers who morphed into actors--more or less
Alan Arkin -- Bing Crosby -- Bobby Vinton -- Fabian (who became Fabian Forte, when he went into acting) -- and Rudy Vallee.

Groups and Duos
The Beach Boys -- Donny and Marie Osmond -- Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello -- Sonny and Cher -- and The Spice Girls.
Cher also had a solo acting career.,

And then there was . . . who both acted and sang
Art Garfunkle -- Elton John -- Jim Nabors -- Kenny Rogers -- Keith Richards -- Kris Kristofferson -- Little Richard -- Lulu -- Pat Boone -- and Willie Nelson.

And I am sure there are many others, I have failed to mention.
