Memorable Movie Star Voices
Ranked #8,340 in Entertainment, #93,581 overall
Beyond The Voice
I have decided to highlight some movie star voices that I think are memorable for one reason or another. I got the idea for this lens while watching The Haunted Mansion, a movie with Jennifer Tilly. Well at least her head plays in the movie. She is a funny talking crystal ball. Very interesting and exciting movie I might add. She is one of those stars that even without seeing her face you would know it was her just by her voice.
This lens will highlight actors and actresses with unique voices, some that you may label as a bit on the annoying side and others that are memorable for other reasons, like being sexy or silly or just really well known. I want to take a look at what made them famous and maybe where they are now. And go over some of the great highlights of their lives.
It will be so fascinating to get to know the people behind these memorable voices. So come along with me on this journey. A journey beyond the voice. Let's get to know some of these amazing and interesting people. It's time to shine a light on some movie stars with some unforgettable voices.
Featuring..................
Jennifer Tilly
Jennifer Tilly is an actress with an unmistakable voice. Jennifer knew she wanted to be an actress even as a teenager. She won her way into the theater program at Stephens College in Missouri through writing competitions. And from there a star unraveled.
Jennifer starred in many movies that we love spanning over the last 20 years. Coming from a mixed family and a very unique home life she sure has it in her to play any role at any given time. The true definition of an "actress".
Aside from entertaining us with her ironic personality what else does she like to do? Well play poker of coarse. She won a bracelet and over 100,000 dollars in a Ladies Poker Championship. Beating out 600 other women. Wow she is one spicy lady. She is also an avid shoe lover, she has like 400 pairs of shoes. I would love to see all of these.
Along with these accomplishments and just being totally awesome she has also received 3 best actress awards and a Golden Gate award, of coarse along with many other nominations.
I love Jennifer Tilly. She has a sparkling, witty, but bad girl attitude that delivers what it promises.
Some of her popular movies:
Stuart Little 1999
Liar Liar 1997
The Haunted Mansion 2003
Monsters Inc. 2001
Home on the Range 2004
Bride of Chucky 1998
Arnold Schwarzenegger
We all know him best for his famous line in the movie Terminator "I'll Be Back! But Arnold has had many roles in other movies also. His voice is very well known I would say. If you would like to have some fun with Arnold's voice travel here to the Arnold Soundboard.
But Arnold's fame didn't start out just in the movies. He started body building at the age of 15. Then after 5 years at the age of 20 he became the youngest Mr. Universe ever.
Schwarzenegger has many reasons to be puffing on that cigar because he has made some great accomplishments not only in the movie world but in politics also. In 2003 he became the Governor of California. And his wealth measures over $800 Million dollars.
Some of his other movies:
True Lies 1994
Twins 1988
Junior 1994
Batman & Robin 1997
Around the World in 80 Days 2004

Fran Dreschner
Aside from being a woman with a very unique and somewhat agonizing voice. Sorry Fran, I still love ya. Anyhow she is a very respectable woman of many attributes. She is an Emmy- and Golden Globe Award-nominated American film and television actress, comedian, screenwriter, television director, producer, author, activist and political lobbyist best known for playing Fran Fine on the television series The Nanny. And no one could ever forget her voice.

incase you needed a reminder of what her voice sounds like :)
Fran is also a Cancer survivor, take a look at the video.
Whoopi Goldberg
Whoopi Goldberg is a wonderful woman and a great actress. Her first big break in The Color Purple was just the beginning. Whoopi starred in many other movies after. Not to mention her Broadway music success, her time on Hollywood Squares and her own spot on the show The View. She is a woman who has achieved many great things. Whoopi is one of only 10 people who have won Academy, Emmy, Grammy, and Tony Awards. That sure is something.
Despite being an awesome and talented actress Whoopi still just can't seem to find true love. She has been married 3 times. She has one daughter Alexandrea, an actress born 1973. Whoopi has a history of a hard life as you can call it. Becoming a heroin addict at a very young age and even marring her drug counselor.
But even through all of this she sure managed to come out on top.
Some of her best movies:
The Lion King 1994
Ghost 1990
The Color Purple 1985
Sister Act 1992

Clint Eastwood
Clint was born in San Fransisco. He started out as your average guy working in a factory or steel mine. Doing what he could to make ends meet. A lot of people don't know he also served his country in the U.S. Army. It wasn't until he was snuck into Universal Studios to meet a camera man that he was considered for acting, but not for his talent, purely for his good looks.
Clint Eastwood made his big break with the movie The Good, The Bad and The Ugly (1966). Since then he has starred in well over 50 movies. And has also received many awards.
Some of Clint Eastwoods movies:
Unforgiven 1992
Million Dollar Baby 2004

- One voice I always loved to listen to was Orson Welles. I can see why people believed his War of the Worlds radio broadcast. Who wouldn't take that amazing voice seriously? Great idea for a lens. 5*
