#4: Ludacris
There are some celebrities out there that, instead of just keeping things simple, decided to take on a different name, a stage name if you will, and create alongside it a specific personality. Whilst this might sound like a weird thing to do, it is actually very common in Hollywood and often allows people to truly be who they want to be.

Christopher Brian Bridges, otherwise known as Ludacris, was apparently the funniest guy in school. You can understand why he might have wanted to change his name to something a little more stage friendly… Not only does Ludacris give off different vibes, but it probably allowed him to tap into a completely different side of himself.
