11 Celebrities Who Rejected The Simpsons

1. Prince

The episode: Unproduced sequel to 'Stark Raving Dad' The role: Prince as Leon Kompowsky as Prince Michael Jackson absolutely nailed the role of Leon Kompowsky. Even though he didn't receive credit he was responsible for most of the "Do The Bartman" song and had a significant amount of input into the "Stark Raving Dad" episode as a whole. And what better way to continue the epic super star delusions of old Leon Kompowsky than to bring him back, this time as Prince? Everything was in place: Prince saw the appeal and agreed to the show but it was quickly alleged that the script originally sent to Prince wasn't the same as the one he was recording from. In true super star fashion Prince threw a world class hissy fit and outright rejected to work from anything but the original script that he had seen, and, since nobody knew what script he was talking about, a stand-off ensued. The end result was that Leon Kompowsky never made his reappearance. Still, at least we got to experience the magical MJ episode, right?

I have been described as a sportsman with the brain of an athlete and the body of a scientist. Since it was established that playing wouldn't work out for me I have taken to writing.
