Celebrity Challenge: Music Edition

The names we often know celebrities by are not their birth names. Movie stars, singers, and even presidents, have changed their birth names when they became well known. The information contained in this quiz are hints, not actual facts. The names, however, have not been changed to protect the innocent. How well do you know your celebrities?

Nice job, sqtammo. Different and fun. Braingle quizzes have become part of my daily routine - ten minutes of peace with a cup of coffee and trivia that doesn't give me a migraine. Although I've always read other players' comments, I'd never posted one myself. Several of today's comments jumped out at me, and I feel compelled to insert my two cents.

I would hope when people come to this site, they do so to have fun. I know I do. If the trivia quiz is one I think I'd enjoy, I participate; if not, I skip it. End of story. It's interesting to me that someone posted a comment correcting sqtammo's grammar. True, ending a sentence with a preposition is not grammatically correct. However, before attempting to correct someone else, perhaps one should be sure his/her own house is in order. Learning to spell one's profession correctly, for instance, may be a good start. It's p-s-y-c-h-o-l-o-g-i-s-t. And, if critiquing others is a choice, both posters may want to consider brushing up on proper punctuation.

My writing skills and command of the English language are not perfect, nor do I expect anyone else's to be. We all have pet peeves and sometimes need to vent. Let's lighten up (myself included) and just have fun. End of rant.

Nice job, sqtammo. Looking forward to more of your quizzes.

Kelly
