Notable Acting Credits | Comments & Submitter Name |
"Hairspray, Videodrome, Spun, Heavy" | Deborah Harry aka Debbie Harry is the lead singer of the pivotal late 1970's punk/pop group, Blondie. Besides singing Harry also acts and has appeared in the above named films, but also in television roles and has done many voiceovers for both television, movies and video games, including "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City". Her most famous movie role came in 1988 when she played the original version of the villianous Velma von Tussle in John Waters' "Hairspray" (I think she did a great job and one worth seeing in renting or buying the DVD or video of the movie). Harry also appeared in "Hairspray" being the wife of the character played by another singer who acted, Sonny Bono. - Peter Bradfield |
