Artificial Intelligence has reached the point that it can not only generate copies of celebrities, but also simulate celebrity voices. This has opened the possibility for voices to be used long past the celebrity’s lifetime. Imagine Elvis endorsing peanut butter and marshmallow flavored Oreos, or P Diddy voicing a commercial for Johnson and Johnson Baby Oil.

Here at meridian-street.com, we believe that just because something can be done, doesn’t mean it should be done. Here are celebrity voices that we do not want to hear forever.

Jimmy Carter – Love the man’s heart, but there’s enough hick in the world already.

Late State Joe Biden – Do we need more phrases like “rammelframalburdabajunk ?”

Younger Joe Biden – His voice is forever tainted because of lines like, “Dog faced pony soldier.”

RFK Jr. – His voice makes everyone want to suck on a Luden’s.

Hillary Clinton – For half the country that she called “Deplorables,” her voice is like fingernails on a blackboard.

Pee Wee Herman – Do we need to hear, “I meant to do that” again? Did we ever need to hear it?

Howard Cosell – Why?

Meg Tilly – Does anyone really like high pitched nasal tones? Anyone?

Roseanne – Ditto.

Fran Drescher – Ditto

Miley Cyrus – Ditto but in a lower register.

James Earl Jones – Don’t you dare touch the voice of Darth Vader. If you do, may the force not be with you.

Bob Uecker – Every simulation we’ve heard, misses, just a little outside.

Morgan Freeman – We love his voice so much, it would be sacrilege to resurrect it, if Freeman ever dies.
