- Cher, Moonstruck (1987) Someone like Judy Garland certainly had a more impactful Hollywood career overall, but when it comes to a single performance from an acting singer or a singing actor or whatever you wanna call it, Cher’s Oscar-winning turn in the 1987 romcom Moonstruck remains the standard by which you mentally check all others.
- Barbra Streisand, The Way We Were (1973) A single scene is enough to prove the point: On one of those New York nights, Barbra Streisand’s Katie runs into the uber-WASP Hubble, played by Robert Redford, who she had a thing for in college, out at a bar.
- Ice Cube, Boyz N the Hood (1991) If there’s a thesis statement to the first half-decade of Ice Cube’s entertainment career, it could be one of Doughboy’s most famous lines: “Either they don’t know, don’t show, or don’t care about what’s goin’ on in the hood.”
- Lady Gaga, A Star Is Born (2018) It might not seem like much of a stretch for Lady Gaga’s big screen breakout to come as an aspiring pop star. It would be a mistake, however, to assume that Gaga is playing a Hollywood-ified version of herself in A Star Is Born.

- ‘Selena’ (1997) Arriving just two years after the murder of Selena Quintanilla-Pérez, Selena is an elegant, deified portrait of the "Queen of Tejano." The biopic allowed Selena to posthumously cement the crossover success she tragically didn't live to experience, while also thrusting actress Jennifer Lopez — who earned a Golden Globe nomination in what was her first leading role — on her own path to superstardom.
- ‘Notorious’ (2009) Directed by George Tillman Jr., this competent biopic chronicles the Notorious B.I.G. 's too-brief growth into one of the greatest rappers who ever lived, and his tragic 1997 murder at the age of 24.
- ‘The Runaways’ (2010) Biopics live or die on their performances, and Floria Sigismondi's take on the early days of the pioneering all-female rock band has two dynamite ones in Kristen Stewart's Joan Jett and Michael Shannon's Kim Fowley.
- ‘La Vie en Rose’ (2007) If you'd have assembled a shortlist of actresses to play the chanteuse extraordinaire Edith Piaf in a movie, Marion Cotillard might have shown up somewhere between Mariah Carey and Martha Plimpton — the French actress had already proven she was much more than a pretty Gallic face, but there was little to suggest she'd be perfect to portray the Little Sparrow.
