these are very talented people but
actors they are not welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down another top 10 horribly awkward TV
cameos understand you are looking for me
I’m John Wayne and don’t think that the
Brits aren’t prone to the odd cringy
cameos check out watch mojo UK’s list of
the top 10 WTF TV cameos by Brits for
proof for this list we’ll be looking at
more horrible celebrity cameos from
throughout TV history these cameos can
be awkward in numerous ways including
being misplaced unnecessary or poorly
acted I hope I’m not disturbing you I’m
Nancy Reagan number 10
Boy George the a-team that’s me I’m
looking for cowboy George I’m almost a
month old Jewish I am can you think of a
more awkward pairing than Boy George in
this squad the 18 was a very popular
show in the mid 1980s it followed four
Special Forces veterans who escaped from
a military prison the work is mostly
do-gooder mercenaries although comical
in spots it was constantly being
criticized for its sexism and violence
which is why the inclusion of Boy George
was so jarring
[Music]
in the show while George wins over mr.
T’s ba Baracus and ends up performing to
a bar full of tough country love and
good ol boys we’re not sure but we
highly doubt that Culture Club is their
kind of music can anyone say ratings poi
analysis everybody likes Culture Club
number 9 will.i.am Joan of Arcadia trick
we’re not dogging Williams acting chops
here because he’s actually not half-bad
we’re just talking points for how
unnecessary his cameo is in the episode
Independence Day he appears as God in
the form of a three-card Monte player
and gives Joan some advice about life by
using the card con as a metaphor gotta
keep it as open so you can see all the
movies his inclusion in the episode is
really unnecessary as a regular actor
would really do just fine and it simply
comes across as pandering to Joan of
Arcadia’s teenage audience that said if
you didn’t know who will I am is
probably wouldn’t even know it’s anyone
special keep your eyes on the Queen
number 8 Tom Morello Star Trek Voyager
the worst kinds of cameos are the
obvious ones such as the case with Tom
Morello appearing as crewman Mitchell in
the scene mitchell randomly appears and
gives Janeway directions to share a
brief awkward conversation complete with
Morello looking directly into the camera
before Janeway walks away her man
Mitchell I’ll have you been
never better man Morello is a fan of
Star Trek and the son of series producer
Rick Berman is a fan of Morelos work and
Rage Against the Machine and Audioslave
the scene which could have easily been
cut from the episode screams we just
wanted to hang out with Tom Morello for
a day to the left man thank you number 7
Alice Cooper monk the guy
Alice Cooper in the episode mr. monk in
the garbage strike the garbage
collectors of San Francisco go on strike
and month grossed delirious from the
smell of garbage while single-handedly
cleaning up the city monk tells his
colleagues that he has solved the murder
on his mind Alice Cooper must have read
about Jimmy Cusack’s handcrafted
wingback chair as he explains the real
Alice Cooper is a collector of antique
wing chairs and committed murder when he
discovered that the head of the
Sanitation Union had one that he wanted
while this is being explained Alice can
be seen snarling at the camera and
caressing a chair it’s very weird and
very awkward but then again that’s monk
for you number 6 Michael Stipe The
Adventures of Pete and Pete what can I
get you son REM was all the rage in the
early 1990s and their popularity
resulted in one incredibly awkward cameo
from the band singer Michael Stipe in a
special episode of game Pete Stipe
appears as a sledge sickle vendor named
captain scrummy and while Stipe is a
great singer as an actor he’s well
you’ll have to talk to mr. tasty if it’s
a blue tornado you’re after look we
understand that Pete and Pete is
intentionally corny and ridiculous but
there’s a difference between good corny
acting and bad corny acting this is the
latter
stipe makes some truly weird facial
expressions and his voice stays in his
sleep inducing be monotone throughout
the entire scene it’s surreal but not in
a good way he look like a bowl of fried
sludge sickle moon number 5 Quentin
Tarantino all-american girl look we all
know that Quentin Tarantino is one of
the best directors of the past few
decades that said everyone also knows
that he isn’t the strongest actor
especially when he puts himself in
scenes alongside Titans like samuel
l.jackson and Jamie Foxx Quinton
appeared in one episode of the
short-lived ABC sitcom all-american girl
I do a lot of business for the Korean
community and I always believe mark of a
good salesman speak to your customers
language yeah the constant Tarantino
jokes were fun but the dude was as usual
fast-talking awkward self
wasn’t bad enough his on-screen
chemistry with Margaret Cho was well
they weren’t very compatible let’s just
say that it’s weird to think that
Tarantino went from pulp fiction
directly to whatever this was okay
thanks for stopping before Macy Gray
fuller house she’s my girl call it an
awkward cameo for an awkward show in a
fuller House’s third episode wittingly
titled fun her house the gang runs into
Macy Gray at a nightclub okay let’s get
the obvious out of the way first
why Macy Gray she may be a great singer
and talent but her last big hit was in
like 1999 we don’t think the demand for
Macy Gray cameos are very high
[Applause]
[Music]
our question is answered later in the
episode when gray awkwardly plugs a new
album although the following dig at
herself is admittedly quite funny it’s
the one redeeming aspect of this
otherwise cringy and terribly active
cameo number three Donald Trump The
Fresh Prince of bel-air but folks before
we go too far I’ve got something to tell
you we mean it’s Donald Trump need we
say more
in the fourth season episode for Sale By
Owner the family has offered an
exorbitant amount of money for their
house by a mysterious buyer this buyer
turns out to be none other than the
Trump Meister himself I like keeping a
low profile Donny T awkwardly appears to
an incredibly lame and overly scripted
fanfare including an exaggerated
announcement and Carlton fainting and
excitement Trump then awkwardly acts and
prances his way around the set
delivering horribly timed monotone minds
before leaving barely two minutes later
come on Fresh Prince you’re better than
this everybody’s always blaming me for
everything
number two Lance Bass seventh heaven so
I guess we have a date tonight huh some
musicians and singers beautifully
transitioned from music to acting and
some don’t
case in point and sinks Lance Bass who
appeared as Rick Palmer in an episode of
7th heaven
this was basses first role in television
and it shows his acting is painfully
wooden an emotionless and his line
delivery is stilted like he’s reading
off a cue card just off-screen we were
just experimenting with what happens
when friends kiss friends this episode
aired in January of 2000 the same month
and sinks bye-bye-bye debuted and only
two months before their most successful
album no strings attached was released
this show was geared towards teens and
preteens hence basses blatantly
commercial cameo my brother Rick’s right
here and he says he’d love to take Lucy
out I didn’t say that before we unveil
our top pick here are a few honorable
mentions this is Wayne knot of our
Edmonton operation sure could use some
of your class round home oh I’m so sorry
I have to
oh that’s cool we gotta go solve a
murder so I’m gonna heavy a bit of a dip
my pony for number one
Paris Hilton Veronica Mars no one cares
what you think Veronica Mars not anymore
Paris Hilton has made numerous cameos
over the years like when she appeared as
a goddess on supernatural and as you can
probably imagine they have all been very
jarring her most Awkward cameo is
arguably her appearance as Caitlin Ford
in the second episode of Veronica Mars
here she’s given an important role but
her character Falls wicked flat what
strident talking of ronica it seems
incredibly out of character for a new
show to do a cameo like this and it
reeks of Network meddling
it’s as if UPN wanted to pander to its
viewers and was willing to jeopardize
the quality and identity of its show to
do so so are you supposed to be going
