Or The Bee Gees with "Stayin' Alive", "How Deep Is YOur Love", and "Night Fever" - all from a #1 movie called Saturday Night Fever! They didn't appear in the movie (if they did, maybe on a magazine cover or an album cover or a poster that Tony Manero had), but hey those hits are heard in the movie!
Funny I mentioned this, because I just heard "Night Fever" and "Saturday Night Fever" in Second Life just now.

The Bee Gees might count if the 'Sgt Pepper' movie had hit #1. IIRC, they had a nominally more-than-cameo appearance. Unfortunately, Sgt Pepper bombed.
Similarly, 'the Wiz' also appears to have bombed at the Box Office.

Found another one... Justin Timberlake was one of the stars of The Social Network, which spent its first two weeks of release at #1.

Late last year, the #1 story that Ryan told was about how "Late Night Talking" by Harry Styles was #1 at the same time as his movie "Don't Worry Darling."

Maureen McGovern had the #1 song “The Morning After “ and was in the #1 movie “Airplane!” You're right, so unfortunately I can't say 'Surely you must be joking'. Did not know she had a part (a small one) in one of my favorite movies.

Did not know she had a part (a small one) in one of my favorite movies. She was also in a #1 movie from 1974-1976, The Towering Inferno! Maureen McGovern as Singer at the party (although not listed in the cast credits, her performance is acknowledged in the end titles.) During 1974, she recorded two movie themes: "We May Never Love Like This Again" from the disaster film The Towering Inferno, in which she made a short appearance when she is seen singing the song as the evening's entertainment, and "Wherever Love Takes Me" from the British disaster film Gold. The former won an Oscar (though it was only a minor pop hit at #83), and the latter received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood composer John Williams wrote the original music score for The Towering Inferno, and interpolated the tune of the song into the underscore of the movie. The actual 1974 song recording for the album (subsequently released as a single) was produced by Carl Maduri for Belkin-Maduri Productions. It was arranged by Joe Hudson and was engineered by Arnie Rosenberg. McGovern had previously performed Kasha and Hirschhorn's song "The Morning After" for The Poseidon Adventure, which also won the Academy Award for Best Original Song two years prior. Due to her associations with two Oscar-winning songs, McGovern recorded Academy Award Performance: And the Envelope, Please an album comprising Oscar-winning songs, which included both "The Morning After" and "We May Never Love Like This Again". In 1976, she recorded her cover version of "The Continental", the very first Oscar-winning track for Best Original Song. It proved to be her only hit on the UK Singles Chart, where it peaked at #16.

Lady Gaga has had 6 or 7 #1s on AT40 and I’m pretty sure “A Star Is Born” was #1.
