You know, I'm having a hard time thinking of any actors who've turned full time into musicians. Hasslehof, maybe? I'm not sure he still does anything.

Rick Moranis and Steven Segal put out some decent music. Hugh Laurie could have a legit career in music if he had never started acting.

Barbara Streisand, Gary Sinese and if you are talking actors that had a hit song you can include Jack Wagner and Patrick Swayze.
