A heavy metal/hard rock artist from UsefulNotes/{{Detroit}}, Michigan, Vincent Damon Furnier (born February 4, 1948) was originally the frontman of a band called Alice Cooper. He has also used it as his stage name from the start. Every Alice Cooper album credits vocals (and sometimes harmonica) to Alice Cooper. He has since legally changed his name to this. The split was entirely amicable, probably because Furnier [[NiceGuy pays royalties to his former bandmates for the right to use the name.]]
