A great celebrity cameo can absolutely make a movie, leaving the audience talking long after the credits have rolled, but just why do these brief appearances, often uncredited and with no spoken lines, have such an impact? Often, it appeals to the audience because it's like an inside joke that they get to be a part of, exchanging a wink and a nod in their minds with the movie's creators. These cameos are also a great way to give the movie a boost by tying it to a celebrity who is already known for a classic movie, hit song or piece of pop culture — without actually shelling out millions to put that star in a leading role in the picture.
Many times, it's the sheer audacity of filmmakers that takes a viewer's breath away, putting beloved game show host Bob Barker into a violent onscreen fight with Adam Sandler, or having Eminem give an "interview" where he not only openly admits to being gay, but expresses shock and dismay that no one could figure it out themselves from all the hints he was leaving. If we show you one of these awesome celebrity cameos, do you think you can match it to the correct movie? Prove your cameo IQ with this quiz!
