Reneé Rapp — whose sophomore album, Bite Me, will be out Aug. 1 — says her name sealed her career path. While appearing on the Good Hang with Amy Poehler podcast, Reneé said her mom "chose my first and last name to both have R’s. She was like, ‘Alliteration, just in case she wants to be a pop star.’ Like before I was born.” Reneé called the decision “conceited,” but said, “I’m obsessed with the way she did it. I’m like, ‘Thank you, God.'”
