You’ve been pronouncing these famous peoples’ names wrong
We all pronounce names wrong but have you realized you’ve been saying these famous peoples names wrong?
Early this morning Chrissy Teigen quote tweeted a tweet saying,
” well we pronounce @Chrissyteigen’s name wrong all the time”.
Chrissy responded with “word! gave up a long time ago. last name is tie-gan not tee-gan.”
Ariana Grande is also a victim of mispronunciation. Just recently while chatting with Beats Radio 1, Ariana slipped by pronouncing her name correctly. After being asked if she will take Pete Davidson’s last name she said she would like to at least keep Gran-dee.
Other names you could be pronouncing wrong are…
Rihanna Ree-AN-uh
Demi Moore Duh-MEE Mor
Isla Fisher EYE-luh FISH-UR
Barbra Streisand Barb-RAH Strei-SAND
Amanda Seyfried Uh-MAN-duh SIGH-fred
