by Sarah Baird I’ve never really been the type to stay glued to the latest Hollywood gossip or eagerly thumb through chatty tabloids, but I have always held a deep inter- est in celebrities who are such forces of nature that they’ve become mono- nymous — so famous they only have to go by one name. Whether we’re talking about Prince’s over-the-top talent and extravagance, Sting’s migration from pop star extraordinaire to tantric yoga advocate, or the scores of mononymous women who have shapeshifted the music industry like Cher, Madonna and, of course, Beyoncé, it’s hard not to feel like bowing down in the face of cultural icons so mighty that a single moniker can be their entire calling card.
