Ok... so my birthday just passed. And in honor of that today's post will honor...well let's just call them parents who are really into astrology...lmao
August (born in December)

Gemini (who is a Libra born in Oct.)--actually I've seen this more than once
I was thinking today about why artists, singers, actors etc. change their names.
Answer: Because somehow 50 Cent sounds so much better than Curtis Jackson (*side eye and sarcasm*).
So today I'm going to expose their gubment (yes I said gubment) names. And if the FBI, LAPD, Secret Service, IRS or Arizona State Police (that means YOU DMX) are reading, you didn't get any of this info from me.
Real names of Hip hop and R&B artists:
Ashanti Ashanti Shaquoya Douglas Busta Rhymes Trevor Tahiem Smith Chaka Khan Carole Yvette Marie Stevens Flava Flav William Jonathan Drayton, Jr Flo Rida Tramar Dillard The Game Jayceon Terrell Taylor Juvenile Terius Gray Lupe Fiasco Wasalu Muhammad Jaco Plies Algernod Lanier Washington Remy Ma Reminisce Smith Vivica Fox Vivica Anjanetta Fox
and the ass backwards award goes to:
Michelle Johnson aka Meshell Ndegeocello
the completely random flashback award goes to: Yourree Dell Harris but you may remember her better as:
As I stated in the first blog... feel free to submit names. They must be real names. No urban legend names like Orangello/Lemonjello. You don't have to submit last names unless the combination makes it funny. You can also submit celebrity baby names.
Strange names come in a few categories...there are names that are weird just for the sake of being weird, names that might seem normal until you see them spelled out etc. etc. If you're not sure if a name really qualifies read the "Rules of Names." If it breaks more than 1...usually it's a winner.
As a reminder, if your name is on here--this is meant to be entertaining...but if it makes the list it must be pretty weird.
