Challenge: Link these celebs to superheroes

March 17, 2008 by Grace  

I’m in this challenge of a contest to link celebrities to superhero roles, something like a “six degrees of separation”.

Now, not just ANY celebrity, but only those that are in these shows – American Idol, Ugly Betty, Dancing with the Stars, Desperate Housewives, and Disney movies.

So I thought it was a no-brainer. I mean, tell me an actor who hasn’t been involved in a superhero movie, or science fiction at best? There should be plenty, so doing this challenge would be quick. Well, it took me all night. But I took a shot at it…

Paula Abdul of American Idol has links to Smallville! Did you know that Alan Ritchson, who played Aquaman/Arthur Curry in Smallville, was an American Idol 3 contestant? Now if I can only find his audition video where he strip teased for Paula…

Even before Wysteria Lane, Teri Hatcher of Desperate Housewives  was best known for playing “Lois” in “Lois and Clark: The Adventures of Superman“.

Known for stealing our hearts with her dancing and backstory is Jane Seymour of Dancing with the Stars. Years ago, she stole Christopher Reeve’s heart in his most romantic movie Somewhere in Time.

Kick-ass beauty Rebecca Romijn bared her femme fatal powers as Mystique in the X-men movie. She’s still a knock-out in her new role, only as the transgender Alexis Meade of Ugly Betty.

Easy enough eh? Here’s more. Disney’s Sky High is the high school for super-powered kids.

Donald Duck won’t be far behind. He is also known as Paperinik, Phantomias, Duck Avenger, Superduck, PK, Superdonald and Phantom Duck. You can’t get more heroic than that!

So, there you go. How did I do? If you know any other celebs in these shows that have been in superhero movies, give a shout!

    Well, how about the fact that in addition to co-starring with Christopher Reeve, Jane Seymour also appeared in numerous episodes of “Smallville”.

    Disney also made the film “The Rocketeer”, about a WWII era superhero.

    Goofy has been “Supergoof” on more than one occasion.

    Disney/Pixar created one of the all-time best superhero movies “The Incredibles”.
