Celebrity Toons: Difference between revisions

 

* ''I am the Greatest! The Adventures of Muhammed Ali'', with [[Muhammed Ali]].

* Pamela Anderson was a stripper at night and fought crime later at night in ''[[Stripperella]]''.

* ''[[Little Rosey]]'' with Roseanne Barr.

* ''[[Tenko and the Guardians of the Magic]]'' featured pop-singer-turned-magician Mariko Itakura, a.k.a. Princess Tenko.

* ''[[The Lebrons (web animation)|The Lebrons]]'' with LeBron James

* ''[[Bobby's World]]'' with Howie Mandel (who not only appeared as himself in liveaction against animated bookends but also voiced the title character and the title character's dad, [[The Danza|Howard]]).

* ''[[Hammerman]]'' with MC Hammer.

* ''[[Gravedale High|Rick Moranis in Gravedale High]]''. Another odd case as Ricki Lake (the star of ''Hairspray'' and later the host of her own talk show) was the voice of Cleofatra - but she wasn't the star of the show.

** Yeah, because Rick Moranis was, y'know the guy from the title, and Ricki Lake wasn't much of a celebrity at the time.

* ''[[Mister T (animation)|Mister T]]'', where [[Mr. T|the star]] of ''[[The A-Team]]'' ferries a gymnastics team, a young protégé who imitates everything he does, and an enormous mastiff with a spiked collar and a mohawk.

* ''[[Mary Kate and Ashley In Action]]'' featured the Olsen twins.

* Sgt. Slaughter in ''[[G.I. Joe]]''. NFL star William Perry aka "The Fridge" also had his own figure, but never actually appeared in the animated series.

* ''[[Bruno the Kid]]'' with [[Bruce Willis]].

** Enhanced by the fact that the title character's CG persona when talking to his employers was a pretty obvious Bruce Willis look-alike.

** Actually, it was said that when [[John Lennon]] stayed home as dad to son Sean, he watched the cartoons. And [[George Harrison]] was quoted as saying that the show was "[[So Bad It's Good|so bad or silly that it was good]] and maybe the passage of time would make them more fun today."

* Averted in ''[[Father of the Pride]]'', which "[[Not Quite Starring|features]]" Siegfried and Roy as ''supporting'' characters.

* ''[[The Harlem Globetrotters]]'' (later ''Go-Go Globetrotters'', an [[Animated Anthology]] with ''[[CB Bears]]'', ''[[The Herculoids]]'' and ''[[Space Ghost]]'') applied the same to, well, the Harlem Globetrotters (an "entertainment" basketball team). They later became the '''[[Recycled in Space|Super]]''' Globetrotters.

** These cartoon versions of these spacebound Globetrotters characters later appeared in the ''Futurama'' universe where there's an entire Planet Globetrotter.
