SUBSTITUTION RULE (Round 1)

How to Play:

This brainteaser has two variations, both involving well-known persons.

Variation 1 entries are made-up names resulting from substituting a random letter in both the first and last name of a well-known person. Solving each entry requires a bit of guessing (or reverse substituting) to figure out the real identity of the well-known person.

Variation 2 entries are silly 2-word phrases resulting from substituting a random letter in both the first and last name of a well-known person. Solving each entry requires a bit of guessing (or reverse substituting) to figure out the real identity of the well-known person.
