Hollywoods Hottest Stars Shed Their Aliases

#1. Whoopi Goldberg

Real Name: Caryn Johnson

Whoopi Goldberg born Caryn Johnson got her stage name from some pretty unsavory backstage behavior. She hilariously revealed on The Graham Norton Show, "... I was a bit of a farter. The theatres I was performing in were very small, so if you were gassy, you had to walk away farting, and people would say I was like a Whoopee cushion. I was sometimes quite noisy never offensive."
