FX’s hit biker gang series Sons of Anarchy has featured some surprising cameos over the years, including Dave Navarro, Stephen King, Marilyn Manson, Ashley Tisdale, Joel McHale and David Hasselhoff – to name a few. But this week featured a very brief and very, very random cameo from Carmelo Anthony, star forward for the New York Knicks. ‘Melo showed up towards the end of Tuesday’s episode, playing the role of a henchman for security thug Moses Cartwright.
What the heck? That might be the most random cameo yet. And, hey, he even had a line!
Yup, that was his only line. He handed a knife to Cartwright and then disappeared (presumably) forever. I can’t believe they didn’t even let him shoot…Melo loves to shoot.
It wasn’t Anthony’s first acting gig – he’s cameos on a few other shows, including Law & Order: SVU – but I think it’s safe to say that not too many people saw this one coming.
