Thing 1 & Thing 2
















It seems that everyone in the entertainment industry has an alter ego. Not the manic depressive bipolar kind, but just a seperate performing persona. It can be a little confusing at times as to which personality is being observed but it seems to be making bank. ex:

T.I./TIP
Beyonce/Sasha Fierce
B.o.B/Bobby Ray
Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana
Even Tyrese has an album entitled 'Alter Ego'

If anyone has read 'The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde' you'll comprehend the fascination of having this persona, an extension if you will, of the person in question. You'll also understand the possibility of being so consumed with their 'other self' that they essentially lose themselves as a person...But maybe I'm being over analytical. People react differently in all types of situations, but that doesn't mean they have a double personality. It's all fun and games right? So I wonder who my alter ego is....
