I think these 2 initial quizzes should require you to provide BOTH names.

Justin Bieber isn't even close to being cool enough to make up half of Tenacious D. He would be like, 1/13th at best.

Please update the president of South Africa to Cyril Ramaphosa, because Zuma resigned in February 2018.

Aww, man. I tried to put together Spanish names that would work, and I actually thought of "Julio Iglesias," but I didn't know that was the name of a real person, so I didn't try it.

Great set of quizzes. Took me a while to realise I wasn't looking for the name of Barack's off-road vehicle though.

there is now something probably more famous to say about JB; although i guess the same could be said of JL so maybe it’s deliberate

I find it strange that only 57% got Joe Biden, a lower percentage than Madison or Kennedy, when more recent people generally have an advantage in these quizzes.

Madison and Kennedy are listed as presidents, whereas Biden is listed as Vice President, an office whose holders are less likely remembered. Also, the word "veep" is used in the clue which not everyone might understand, especially non-Americans.

Blitzed through it all only to be thoroughly disappointed that I had no idea on the very final 2. Judging by the stats, I'm not the only one to suffer this heartbreak.
