Brandy Norwood → Brandy (singer) – WP:CRITERIA No. 1, 2 and 5: She's a singer, known as "the singer Brandy" in sources, besides an actress. Use normal English which readers will recognize. Sunrise In Brooklyn ✉ 16:32, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Keep the status quo. First, she is not exclusively known as a singer. And as noted in the previous RM discussions, she seems to be known by her full 'Brandy Norwood' name during her works as an actor. Even last October 2022 when she was in the hospital, reliable sources like CNN and E! still referred to her with the full Norwood name.[1][2] Or how about two month ago when Deadline Hollywood still used her full Norwood name when reporting on her Cinderella role on Descendants: The Rise of Red.[3] Zzyzx11 (talk) 02:42, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Zzyzx11's comments. I agree that sources do use her full name and that the singer disambiguation is not the best as she is also an actor. Aoba47 (talk) 14:24, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
