Peter Sellers Come to me, Thank Heaven for Little Girls I'm serious. Peter Sellers sings Come to me in The Pink Panther Strikes Again and Thank Heaven for Little Girls in Revenge of the Pink Panther and he even sings them on the respective soundtracks! - Alan of Seville
Renee Zellweger Several songs in  Like Catherine Zeta-Jones, Richard Gere, John C. Reilly, Taye Diggs, Dana "Queen Latifah" Owens, and all the other cast members whom the film credits with songs from the score, Renee Zellweger did her own singing in the film version of "Chicago." As for the quality of her performance, that judgment is left to others, as this posting came from an individual who had, by the time of posting, not seen the film itself. - Parker Gabriel
Hugh Jackman Songs from "Oklahoma!" and "The Boy from Oz" Hugh has appeared in the musical "Oklahoma!" in London, and on Broadway in "The Boy from Oz" which featured the songs of Peter Allen. And yes, he can sing, quite well in fact. He should do an album one of these days. - Chris
Annette Funicello Tall Paul, Pineapple Princess, O Dio Mio, Jojo the Dog-Faced Boy, My Heart Became of Age Disney's Mouseketeer teen queen turned beach-movie-costar-with-Frankie-Avalon had a handful of hit records during 1959 and 1960. "Tall Paul" (written by the Sherman Brothers) was the biggest, making it to #7 on the Billboard Hot 100, even though Annette was not the first Mouseketeer to record the song. Annette's singing voice is nothing special but her hit songs were usually fun and catchy if lightweight pop songs with slight rock & roll flavor. - Chris
Cheryl Ladd Think It Over The only one of "Charlie's Angels" to parlay that success into a music career. "Think It Over" made the Billboard Top 40 in 1978, but her biggest success as a singer was in the Japanese market. - Chris
Sally Field Felicidad The actress best known as "Gidget" and "The Flying Nun" had a very brief side career as a pop singer in the late 1960s. She put out one album on Colgems Records which generated her only Billboard Hot 100 charting single, "Felicidad." Sally was no vocal powerhouse but still made a pleasant-sounding record a la Shelley Fabares. - Chris
Shelley Fabares Johnny Angel Shelley was playing Mary Stone on "The Donna Reed Show" when the producers decided that she and her costar Paul Petersen would both become recording artists. Shelley insisted she couldn't sing, but "Johnny Angel" went all the way to #1 on the Billboard charts. Personally I think it was a much more listenable effort than other actors who have tried to sing, but much of the credit for that goes to the backup vocalists (Darlene Love & The Blossoms). - Chris
Catherine Zeta-Jones All That Jazz, Cell Block Tango, I Move On The actress played Velma Kelly in the movie version of "Chicago" and did all her own singing. She has also performed in stage musicals in London. I think she is an excellent singer and dancer as well - "All That Jazz" really gave her a chance to show off her vocal chops. - Chris
Reese Witherspoon Jukebox Blues, Wildwood Flower She was as June Carter Cash on "Walk The Line". Won Academy & BAFTA for best actress. If she was worried about singing in front of live audience, and that she never met June Carter Cash before her passing, she did a great job. - Rocky Mak
Joaquin Phoenix I Walk The Line, Ring Of Fire He was Johnny Cash in Walk The Line - The Movie (with approval from Johny himself) and he learned to play guitar after that. He did get a Grammy for the rendition, and subsequently recorded the soundtrack, won Golden Globe and nominated for best actor. - Rocky Mak
Julie Andrews Sound of Music, Mary Poppins For the younger people, you may know her on Princess Diaries 1 & 2 and Enchanted and the voice of Queen Lillian on Shrek 2 & 3, but before her throat surgery in 1992, she was a musical singer with 4 octave range and perfect pitch. - Rocky Mak
Andrew (Andy) Cole Outstanding Cole covered Outstanding by The Gap Band in 1999 when he was in Manchester United. It made it to no.1 for US R&B & Hip Hop songs, but never made it to no. 40 in the UK. - Rocky Mak
Paul Holmes You've Got A Friend, Wonderful Tonight Paul Holmes is a well-known broadcaster and political commentator and the adoptive father of Millie Holmes (due to her drug charges), but his 2000 album sales was poor... not that he can't sing, but the genre is way out of touch, some covers of original songs that are unheard of. - Rocky Mak
Brittany Murphy Faster Kill Pussycat, Somebody to Love, Boogie Wonderland As herself, she made Faster Kill Pussycat a club favourite with Paul Oakenfold. As a voice actress on Happy Feet, she covered the two latter songs, and made her an underrated singer. - Rocky Mak
Bec Cartwright (Hewitt) All Seats Taken She can sing, but only managed no. 10 in the Australian charts. - Rocky Mak
Chris Rock Never Scared  - Rocky Mak
Seth McFarlane I Need A Jew, Off on the Road to Rhode Island, The FCC song Yes, got to give voice actors some credit, too. Now he does the voices of Brian, Stewie & Peter Griffin on "Family Guy", but all three have varying degree of vocal abilities, and Seth is the voice behind all three of them. - Rocky Mak
Siobhan Marshall Living On A Prayer This tall, blond actress is Pascalle West of "Outrageous Fortunes". She won Sing Like A Superstar (albeit a more performance-based) karaoke competition to be honest). She was backup vocals for "Living On A Prayer" during the 2006 Christmas in the Park in Auckland with a few fellow Outrageous Fortunes female actresses. - Rocky Mak
Adam Sandler The Lonesome Kicker Someone commented on my parody and introduced me of his song. Anyone who knows about his sports comedy would know how good he is in those. Pacing is a but rushed, but it is not a bad song. - Rocky Mak
Emily Deshanel Girls Just Wanna Have Fun She CAN sing, even if it was only a karaoke... with two American Idol contestants on Bones! Go to YouTube and check out the behind the scenes and the actual scene. - Rocky Mak
