He’s a singer just like I am an actor

I am trying to say that he considers himself a singer but he’s really bad, just as bad as I am an actor.


Do both of these mean that? Are they natural?

He's a singer just like I'm an actor.

If he’s a singer I’m an actor.




Guess which which celebrity I am thinking about.
This person is both an actor and singer. This person can be considered an actor before a singer or a singer before an actor. She is known equally for both. This person is of Latin Amercian decent.

Could someone tell me If the following 2 sentences are natural and said by a native english speaker? Does sentence 1 mean sentence 2?
1 This person can be considered an actor before a singer or a singer before an actor. 2 She is known equally for both.



Thanks


Ps

Is this sentence correct?

I am trying to say that he considers himself a singer but he’s really bad, just as bad as I am an actor.

anonymous He's a singer just like I'm an actor. It certainly has no negative implications. It could be Johnny Depp comparing himself to Luciano Pavarotti.

They can have that meaning, but only if you say them in a sort of sarcastic tone of voice. The second one sounds more natural to me.
