Celebs Stage Name Vs. Their Real Name

It’s honestly shocking how many of our favorite stars go by a different name in Hollywood.

At this point, it’s not very surprising to most fans that their favorite celebs have fake names, pseudonyms and aliases. Surely, no one assumes that The Weekend or P!nk are birth names, even though it’d probably be pretty cool if they were. But the coolest thing about these celebrity names aren’t just that they differ from their real names, but that there’s usually a story behind the names they choose that gives us a deeper look into who they are and why we love them so much.

Even though we all love Outer Banks, Chase Stokes isn’t really the actor’s birth name. (We’d also love to know when and/or if there’s going to be a season 3; looking at you Netflix!). And before she became the queen we know her as today, Lizzo hasn’t always been known as such. Not to mention that Travis Scott has an honorable reason why he chooses to go by that name. And don’t even get us started on how Doja Cat got her name, though it’s pretty straight forward and honestly hilarious.
