If the names of some stars sound too good to be true, it’s because, most likely, they are.
Believe it or not, many stars have changed their names when entering the entertainment industry. Whether it’s because it’s hard for fans to remember them or having a childhood nickname that’s only lasted for years, plenty of famous faces have moved on to their nicknames.
Some stars, like Miley Cyrus and Frank Ocean, even made their name changes legal. The way Frank Ocean sees it, “None of us are our names. If you don’t like your name, change yours.”
And it seems a lot of other singers and actors agree with him.
Jennifer Aniston, Lady Gaga, Ricky Martin and even Jamie Foxx recreated themselves by making the switch years ago, and we can’t even imagine that they could have thought they could use anything other than their famous stage name.
