About This Quiz

Think of the DJ rounding into the next track. The words want to fall in a groove. We removed the person. Now the phrase sits a little crooked. Your job is to straighten it.

Four names appear per title. Mix of full names, single names, and stylized handles. Tiny spacing choices matter. Periods, ampersands, a stray comma. Typo energy is the decoy.

Do not chase trivia. Chase fit. The correct option reads like packaging, not fan talk. When the cadence stops clunking, stop there.
