At least we hope that
Robert Alda did some Shakespeare at some point in his career. Note that Art Rochester's very apt anagram uses the alternative spelling. Of these, the last three are quite remarkably appropriate.

The longest one-word celebrity anagrams we have encountered are 13 letters in length (a tie between Britney Spears, Eddie Charlton, and Ingrid Steeger).
Word Ways readers are challenged to try and beat this record.
