List of guest stars on The Simpsons

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

This is a list of guest stars who appeared on The Simpsons. Many episodes of animated series The Simpsons feature celebrity guests contributing their voices to the show, whether as themselves or as fictional characters. This list does not include those celebrities whose voices have just merely been impersonated.

There are several non-regular voices who make appearances but are credited as "also starring" and not guest voices. These voices are not mentioned here. As well, Marcia Wallace has made many de facto appearances and has always been credited as a guest star. Only the episodes in which her character Edna Krabappel plays a significant role are mentioned here.

The show currently holds the Guinness World Record for Most Celebrities Featured in an Animation series.[1]
