Cartoon-Superstar Mashups

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Simpsons Celebrity Series by Brad Anderson are Hilarious

— January 30, 2013 — Pop Culture
The Simpsons Celebrity series is a hilarious mashup between characters from the long-running television show and some of today's hottest superstars. While some artists have tackled creating real-life versions of the beloved cartoon characters, this series does something else entirely. It is almost as though real-life people have been cartoonized rather than the other way around.

Created by artist Brad Anderson, The Simpsons Celebrity series essentially casts actors and actresses as the characters. Some are strange while others fit the bill perfectly. For instance, while Cate Blanchette makes a weird Marge and George Clooney is too dashing for Homer, Steve Buscemi is perfect as Moe and William H. Macy is the same for Ned Flanders.

Overall, some people might have issues with The Simpsons Celebrity series, but it is undeniably fun.
