Stars: They're just like us! These are lists of fascinating facts about famous people - who, despite all the glitz and glamour, are well-rounded, full-formed human beings. Mostly.

Celebrities

List of celebrities with stage names, loosely ranked according to fame and popularity. It's tough to break into show business, but a good stage name might give you a leg up in a sea of boring Joe Smiths and Anne Taylors. This list includes famous people you didn't know were using fake stage names, including those who go by their middle names and celebrities who used variations of family names. A number of people on this list changed their names to avoid confusion with other actors. For example, the Batman you know as Michael Keaton was born Michael John Douglas - not to be confused with Michael Kirk Douglas (whose own father, Kirk Douglas, was born Issur Danielovitch). Other celebrities changed their names to protect their privacy. Natalie Hershlag was a famous child actress, but you have always known her as Natalie Portman. Some celebrities who use pseudonyms changed their names themselves just because they sounded better.This list of famous stage names includes celebrities who go by nicknames and famous people who have changed their names. It does not, however, include female celebrities who use their married surnames professionally, <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/adopted-celebrities/carlybobarly?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">famous people who were adopted</a> by stepparents at a young age and had their names legally changed as children, or celebrities with obviously theatrical stage names, such as many wrestlers and eponymous artists. You know Adele must have a last name. You know Sting's real name is not Sting. You are pretty sure it's not just a coincidence that the Macho Man's last name was Savage. For more lists of celebrity names, check out the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/funniest-real-names-of-celebrities/carlybobarly">funniest real names of celebrities</a> and this list of <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/most-ridiculous-celebrity-baby-names/carlybobarly">stupid celebrity baby names</a>.

Here is a list of famous people who were born the same day - not just with the same birthday, but on the EXACT same day in the same year. Maybe even at the same hospital? To the same mother? No, there are no twins on this list. It's only celebs with the exact same birthdate, like Paris Hilton and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, or like Nancy Grace and Weird Al. What does it mean for two people to be born on the same day? In elementary school, it means two sets of cupcakes for the whole class! In college, if you have a lot of mutual friends, maybe it means a joint b-day bash? For the rich and famous and successful, it probably means a really fun conversation at Elton John's Oscar party while others stand around feeling like outsiders. A shared birthday equals an immediate kinship and a lifelong guarantee that at least one Facebook friend will remember your special day.You know what is fun to think about re: people who have the exact same birthday? The different trajectories their careers have taken. For example, child star Henry Thomas, aka Elliott from E.T. - well, what is he up to these days? Who knows, but he is certainly not the breakout star of Modern Family, like his identical birthday buddy Eric Stonestreet! And Ralph &quot;Daniel-san&quot; Macchio has popped up in stuff recently, but his modern day career pales in comparison to his birthday twin, Survivor host Jeff Probst. Also, Malcolm X and Pol Pot were pretty different, goal-wise. And what about people who died young? What if Marilyn Monroe ever looked as old as freaking Andy Griffith???Is it fun to think about birthdays? Did you even know that &quot;Lincoln's Birthday&quot; on your calendar could just as easily have said &quot;Darwin's Birthday?&quot; And even that it would say the same year? Something to chew on!

They even get summoned for jury duty and some of them actually serve!&nbsp;Celebrities are not exempt from receiving those little jury duty notifications in the mail, just like us normals. But unlike most celebs, you probably don't cause quite as much of a commotion when you show up at a courthouse. While fame was enough to get Madonna out of celebrity jury duty (apparently the court also already had enough jurors for the day), it wasn't enough to get Tom Hanks or Steve Carell off the list of celebrities who served on juries&nbsp;.&nbsp;And despite the fact that celebrity jurors are potentially too distracting to actually serve during a trial, fame and fortune weren't enough to get Donald Trump, Jennifer Lopez, or Eva Longoria out of spending full days in the juror lounge just waiting for their names to be called. Turns out celebs are not above the law!So if you're bummed about having to do jury duty, just remember all of us have to do it - regardless of whether you're a former president (like George W. Bush) or just a regular ol' Joe. &nbsp;

Some of them want a place to relax on their time off, while others don&rsquo;t want to lose touch with their roots so they literally go out and touch roots.
