20 Name Brands In Music, Fashion & Pop Culture That Are Commonly Mispronounced

Today I got into an argument with someone over the correct pronunciation of 'Gotye.' (Gotye is an australian singer/songwriter who currently has a hot song called 'Somebody That I Used To Know') With his recent success, comes the struggle of correctly pronouncing his unorthodox moniker. So, to settle my little argument, I took it to the almighty Google and typed in 'how to pronounce Gotye.' Not only did I prove that I was right (it's pronounced gore-tee-yay) I also found a YouTube channel that is 100% dedicated to pronouncing things correctly. What made it extra special, is that the majority of the words were related to music, fashion and pop culture. Scope this list and I can almost guarantee that you'll be the coolest kid at the next party you attend; especially if any of the following brands are present.
