Week #42 | |
Category: | Music |
Difficulty: | Medium |
Clue: | Ladies and Gentelemen, boys and girls, presenting two of the most provactive entertainers in history… |
Answer: | |
![]() | |
![]() | ![]() |
OK, so maybe not “Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls,” but rather just “Lady” and “Boy.” In putting these two famous faces together, I was struck at how similar their styles (and careers) have been so far. It’s almost more about the performance than the music, I think… |

Brain Celebri-teasers: Solution – Week #41
Thursday, October 13th, 2011Welcome back to Brain Celebri-teasers. It’s time to reveal the solution to our Week #41 puzzle:
Week #41 | |
Category: | Movies/TV |
Difficulty: | Hard |
Clue: | These two handsome men are famously linked for a time when they kept their faces hidden |
Answer: | |
![]() | |

When actors look like this, it seems strange to cover their faces in the movies. But George Clooney and Christian Bale both famously took a turn wearing a certain bat-like cowl, adding their names to a long list of actors who have stage-whispered their way into history. |
The winner this week was Mike!
After forty-one weeks, the standings are as follows:
Player | Points | Correct Answers |
Mike | 32 | 16 |
Konstantin | 11 | 18 |
