Guess the Star ?

by **Kenny** Tue Jul 17, 2012 4:46 pm

Simple game really , a lot of ' Stars ' are known by different names to the ones they were born with ie the singer Albert George Dorsey is better known as Englebert Humperdink or the actor Carlos Irwin Estevez is better known as Charlie Sheen .

So simply post a STARS real name and then someone with their more commonly known name , it can be a singer actor sportsman any star

I will start off with

Issur Danielovitch Demsky

Sounds like some early 20th century Russian immigrant to the USA, but I don't know who.
An actor, or a jazz musician?
