The most prolific talent of movie stars is patting themselves on the back, or each other on the fanny, for merely doing what they are overpaid to do.

Kim Kardashian Paris Hilton The Late Anna Nicole Smith Attyush?

Harrison Ford. He pilots his helicopter for search and rescues and he has been known to fix the cars of random strangers broken down on the side of the highway.

I can’t believe someone mentioned Halle Berry, after the whole ‘kiss my black ass’ hissy fit that wench threw on the set of x-men. Oh and her only talent is in hollywood skin flicks.

Natalie Portman

Keb’ Mo. The Be Good Tanyas. Hem.

Don Cheadle Denzel Washington Idris Elba Kerry Washington Taraji P. Henderson Megan Good Mos Def Tariq Trotter Ahmir Thompson Jill Scott Patti LaBelle Alicia Keys Dave Matthews All from this Generation…and that’s just off the top of my head…not everyone’s a tabloid celeb.

Jeana Jamison. Talent. lol

Anne Hathaway Kiera Knightley (sp?) Jodi Foster Stephen Hawkings Johnny Depp

Jack Black is famous for being TOTALLY AWSOME ! ! ! ! !

Paul Newman Mother Theresa Barack Obama my aunt Ione

Cary Grant, Ginger Rogers, Peter Lorre, Bela Lugosi, Bette Davis, Hope and Crosby, Martin and Lewis, Fred Astaire, Bogey and Bacall, Richard Harris, just to name a few.

I can’t name many celebrities’ names because they are wonderful talents anyway.

Vladimir Horowitz, Artur Schnabel, Andre Watts.

Victor Borge?

Emmy Rossum, Meg Ryan, …okay, I’m struggling on the obligatory third example to demonstrate a list, but you get the point, right?

Does anyone else hear Lucy’s “Oh Dear…” in a Winnie the Pooh voice?

If Danae thinks good behavior makes people invisible, she’s obviously never had to fill out a tax form.

@Gweedo: You are invisible. Couldn’t see your comment.

@Nozzi: Nice compilation. You don’t seem all that “invisible” yourself.

Guess Danae is a bit Eeyonian. She doesn’t like to see good. Michael J. Fox…??

Joy618, you are cute. I especially like your a**! LOL

Sean Connery Agnes Morehead Ben Johnson

Cate Blanchett?

William H. Macy

James Cagney

Why would anyone equate “acting” and “talent?” Maybe Albert Pujols or John Smoltz, people who can do things other people cannot do. Maybe Tiger Woods. That’s about it.

Good job, commenters.. Now in fairness, Mr. Wiley has a point that if you went by what you heard on the “anything for a buck” media, Danae is vindicated. But just because a whole bunch of “boring” celebrities aren’t in all the tabloids, it’s not that they don’t exist.

GEORGE CARLIN Lord Lawrence Olivier Sir Richard & David Attenborough John Cleese or any other Monty Pythoner. John Lennon (Potentially) President Barack Obama

Bill Gates counts as celebrity right?

Actually, the celebs I named I named because besides being great talents, they also embody the meaning of “class”!

All six of the Monty Python actors. Duh. You got that one pouncingtiger!

George Carlin, Bill Maher, Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, …

Patrick Stewart.

Keanu Reeves. Never heard a single bad thing about him.
