34 Celebrity Projects That Were Probably a Big Ol' Mistake

A lot of people on the list below have done genius work-- They've recorded timeless albums, directed truly great films, or brought unquestionably vivid characters to life on our screens… But, as much as they would like it to be true, it doesn't mean that every single they touch immediately turns into gold. Many of our greatest creative minds that have taken side projects that can AT BEST be described as… questionable?
Steven Spielberg's submarine themed restaurant sounds more like a migraine than a novel dining experience. MC Hammer probably should have predicted that his search engine would inevitably make Google say “Can't Touch This." Oliver Stone has taken several tries at getting his passion project “Alexander” right, and that movie still freaking stinks.
This list doesn't have to be all schadenfreude though… Maybe we can look at it as an inspiration! Once you have enough money, you can follow dreams, even if your dreams are incredibly stupid.
