I did the gift thingy. Does this work? https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2023/12/14/briefing/2023-faces-quiz.html?unlocked_article_code=1.GE0.IxQr._O0pRJ17DwT5&hpgrp=k-abar&smid=url-share

39 out of 52
the gift link worked, but I was stumped by many of the singers and actors.

I typed "White Gal," "Black Gal."

Thanks for the gift link. I got 28.
The only athlete I got was Travis Kelce (and not because of Taylor).
I couldn't think of Ramaswamy's name so I put Ramalamadingdong and I guess it wasn't 'close enough'.
The only young actor I got was Margot Robbie because...well, how can you forget her? The other young actors I hadn't heard of even after I saw their names.
And I'll admit to laughing out loud when Clarence came up because all I could think of was V63's comment.
I don't know who I feel worse for. Fran Drescher or Melissa McCarthy who I mistook her for.
Ticked me off that I got Brian Cox wrong because I spaced out and put Brian Fox instead. But I should get a little extra credit for putting Beyonce Knowles.
Then again, they gave me credit for just writing Bankman for Sam Bankman-Fried, so there's that.

47 got me. I had about 100 multiple answers, all correct.

Didn't use any hints, so only got 26... but here's my hints to those who haven't tried this yet:
1. give the correct first name only, and you'll be "correct"
2. give the correct last name only, and you'll be "correct"
3. give the correct last name but incorrect first name, and you'll be "wrong"

32
I got zero sports people except Kelce, I think.
The trick for only using one name saved my butt.

I was tempted, but I was already down one because of F. Carlson.
