Singers turned actresses

Mariah Carey was one singer cum actress who received her first award right after her second film and also a Razzie for the Worst Actress for her efforts in 2001's Glitter, which scored a mere seven percent critic-approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. There was only one way to go from there.

After roles in a few direct-to-video and little-seen films, Carey made news for her performance as a social worker in 2009's Precious. Dressed down, cleavage hidden and a faint moustache (which may well have been grown), Carey's subtle and strong portrayal of the role juxtaposed her "Look at me!" persona, which the singer had previously displayed for almost 16 years.
