Has a female musician ever successfully transitioned to an acting career in quite the same way?

Olivia Newton John is somewhat comparable. Lots of Top 40 hits, though not as many as Madonna had, and starred in movies like 'Grease' and 'Xanadu'. The latter, being a semi-musical also points to the mid-century era of musicals that probably had lots of singer/actresses but that's far before my time.
>Newton-John's accolades include four Grammy Awards, a Daytime Emmy Award, nine Billboard Music Awards, six American Music Awards, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and an induction into the ARIA Hall of Fame. She scored fifteen top-ten singles, including five number-one singles on the Billboard Hot 100, and two number-one albums on the Billboard 200: If You Love Me, Let Me Know (1974) and Have You Never Been Mellow (1975). Eleven of her singles (including two Platinum) and fourteen of her albums (including two Platinum and four 2× Platinum) have been certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

Sissy Spacek was a musician under the name Rainbo before getting into acting. Her biggest claim to fame was a song criticising John Lennon for his nude photos. When her label dropped her due to poor sales she decided to pivot to acting.

>>222795367
Yup and she won the Academy Award for Funny Girl, her film debut.

She’s a 6/10 whore with mediocre music and acting, where in the fuck does the underrated come into play now

Not a woman (sort of) but Prince had the top movie, top album, and top single all at the same time. Several others have been able to have two of these at the same time, and a few even had all three during non-overlapping times, but Prince is the only artist to top all three at the same time.
