I just don’t know why they don’t all use last names. Full names is just really basic best practice on the first instance, before switching usually to last name only, or first name only if you’re personally familiar with the person.
In the 90s you could arbitrarily refer to Michael and there was a 50/50 shot that anyone could guess specifically who you were talking about. I think pretty much everyone still knows who Arnold is when referenced.
Not really. Only one of the people pictured really has a stage name, and even that’s a stretch, because Beyonce created her stage name merely by dropping her surname. Normally, the term “stage name” refers more to people who use a completely different name, like Katheryn Hudson, better known as Katy Perry, or Ramón and Carlos Estevez (Martin and Charlie Sheen).
I have no idea who Megan or Dua is.
I kinda like that. I’m old now!
If you were aware of Cardi B’s WAP, Megan was the feature on that. I only really know Dua Lipa because of the Levitating lawsuit
No idea thank you though!
Wireless Application Protocol??
She’s got some bangers too.

I only know Megan for Wet-Ass Pussy.

Dance the Night is the only song of Dua’s I recognize.

for the same reason that when we grew up you say
Freddie
or
Elton
And be confident “everyone” knew what you were talking about.

That’s 'cause there were two of them, Jackson and Jordan.
It’s called having a stage name.
