Los Angeles: Demi Moore has addressed long-standing confusion about her name, offering a clear and polite correction to fans. In a recent video, the 62-year-old actress explained that her name is pronounced “Duh-mee,” correcting a fan who had said it differently.
Clarification and past explanations
Moore noted that this is not the first time she has clarified the pronunciation. Previously, during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, she discussed the difference between her name and that of Demi Lovato. Although both names share the same spelling, Moore explained that their pronunciations differ.

In addition, Moore continues to maintain a strong presence in Hollywood after more than four decades in the industry.
