Celebrity’s Secret Travel Aliases Revealed

The lengths that some stars go to maintain their privacy seems crazy, but it’s often necessary. When they travel and stay at a hotel or even book a rental car, they no longer have the benefit of private phone lines and are exposed to fans in a more accessible way.

To combat the privacy issue, famous faces will uses fake names when booking travel arrangements. It helps to maintain anonymity and prevent their location from spreading to fans and paparazzi. However, those names have been compromised thanks to the major Sony Pictures leak. This caused many celebrity’s secret travel aliases to be revealed.

Normally, we’d keep these under-wraps for the sake of celebs, but this list is going viral. Looks like some name changes will be happening for these folks:

Clive Owen often uses “Robert Fenton”. His wife’s name is Sarah-Jane Fenton, so this is both a nod to his wife and rather common name. Tobey Maguire goes by “Neil Deep,” while Taye Diggs uses his real name, “Scott Diggs.”

Jude Law keeps it formal with “Mr. Perry,” but Rob Schneider likes to have some fun as “Nazzo Good” (sounds like “not so good”). Natalie Portman prefers a simple name and will be “Laura Brown.” The same goes for Debra Messing a.k.a “Ava Harper”.

Other stars like to give a nod to someone special. Daniel Craig uses “Olwen Williams,” an homage to his grandfather, Olwyn Williams. Tom Hanks will go by “Harry Lauder,” who a famous Scottish comedian, or and “Johnny Madrid,” which may be a reference to a character on a 1960s Western series, ‘Lancer.’ Ice Cube might use “O’Shea Jackson” which is his real name. “Darius Stone” is another favorite of his thanks to his character’s name in ‘XXX: State of the Union.’ Jessica Alba gives a nod to her hubby with a play for a last name – “Cash Money.”
