Neil Sedaka - PLAYGIRL KILLER *Excuse me, but is it really right to lump Frank Sinatra in with so many also-rans (I'm not criticizing Lady Gaga, since she just got started, making it too early to pass judgment on her acting)? Mr. Sinatra performed in many important films, AND he was not only nominated for Best Actor for the very film you cite, he also won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for From Here to Eternity, and those were just two of his numerous awards/nominations...doesn't sound to me like some nobody who "attempted" to star in a movie or movies. He WAS a star. (And "frank"ly, he is not exactly my favorite show biz guy, but fair is fair. )

Frankly, I don't really understand what "attempting" to star in a movie means. So I just read it literally as people who starred in a movie, but were known more as singers.

For now, I left everybody in, since OP of this thread hasn't weighed in yet. My two cents: Lori Petty is not primarily known as a singer, though she's a terrific actress, so she wouldn't fit. As for Sinatra, he was probably known primarily for singing before he starting acting, so he would fit the category - even though he succeeded impressively as an actor.
