For me it has to be Lemmy from Motorhead. I was very big into my rock/metal music between 1990-1995, so to see Lemmy the king of Metal appear in not a great film Airheads was amazing.

 

His line..... 'I used to be editor of the school paper'.

 

What is you best cameo by a music star?

Jarvis Cocker in The Good Night and in Harry Potter.

Tim Booth in Batman Begins.

The various cameos in 24 Hour Party People - Vini Reilly, Howard Devoto, Paul Ryder, Rowetta, Mike Pickering, Mark E Smith, Dave Haslam, Mani, etc.

Not a cameo, but Jimmy Cliff in The Harder They Come.

how about sting in brimstone and treacle? bet you'd all forgot about that piece of tantric shiiite eh.

 

Tantric shiiite? - Yep, I've had a few of those in my time.

 

How about David Bowie and Ryuichi Sakamoto (Yellow Magic Orchestra) in Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence?

 

Although I'm not sure either performance would strictly be described as a cameo.

 

A cracking soundtrack too.

Ryuichi Sakamoto actually composed the soundtrack, it's one of my favourites. Excellent composer.
