Pop to flop: divas who died on screen
Put a diva in front of a microphone and she'll blast out a smash hit, put her in front of a film camera and there's only one thing she'll create - a stinker! Hold your nose, here are some of the very worst
Britney Spears - Crossroads (2002)
The 24-year-old mother-of-two made her film debut as Lucy Wagner, one of three school friends who embark on a coming-of-age journey across America with a mysterious hunk. Britney gets more press for appearing in her bra and panties than for her acting prowess. Provoking boos from fans by snubbing them at the London premier only added to the barrage of abuse from critics.
Killer Line: Spears: 'All we have is now, and right now we have each other.'
Critical Damage: 'Oops, she's really done it this time! That chirpy songbird Britney Spears has popped up with more mindless drivel. This is less of a movie than a mind numbingly dull road trip.' - LA Times
Box Office: $40m
Jessica Simpson - The Dukes of Hazzard (2005)
Jess was eager to prove she wasn't just a blonde bimbo by taking on films as well as music. Unfortunately, she chose to play a blonde bimbo. Daisy Duke was actually a brunette in the old TV series but Jess insisted on her own look for the film version of the hillbilly hit. She was upstaged not only by Johnny Knoxville but also the car.
Killer Line: 'I think something bounced up into my undercarriage.'
Critical Damage: 'Simpson's body is unimpeachable, but her thespian talent is still undiscovered country. It's as if the director told her to treat her performance like a photo shoot: Turn. Smile. Pout. Primp.' - Rolling Stone
Box Office: $80m
