Call him Jermaine Jacksun, please

2/24/2013

The Jackson Five is down to three as Jermaine Jackson has officially changed his name to Jermaine Jacksun for "artistic reasons." This won’t be the first name change for the 58-year-old pop singer, who is currently touring Europe with Jackie, Marlon and Tito. In 1989 he unofficially took the name Mohammad Abdul Aziz, but perhaps that’s too many letters to fit on a marquee. We approve of Jacksun rather than Jackzyn, Jacksonne or Jacksin,' however he's still got a ways to go before he reaches the Ultimate Pretentious Celebrity Name Change: adopting a symbol as your name. (And then getting a guitar in that same shape.) [Source]
