where, WOW! The fascination with celebrity
stretches to the Birthday arena as well. We have

- Medical Marvels
- Business leaders
- Celebrity Criminals
- The mega rich the dirty poor
- Historical personalities
Seems everyone wants a piece of their cake. It
must come back to the fascination we have with people and things outside of
ourselves.
The
Wikipedia
online
encyclopedia had this to share about celebrity and famous people:
"While some envy celebrities,
and many aspire to celebrity, some who have attained it are ambivalent about
their status. Often, celebrities cannot escape the
public eye."
I once saw a publication -- a UK Magazine --
where the celebrity in question had three birthdays in the one year! A rival mag
brought the news to everyone's attention.
Funny? maybe. Could you imagine a birthday
where you don't have privacy or intimacy? I think it would be hard to enjoy.
Perhaps that's the price you pay for being popular and having a famous birthday.
Have a Famous Birthday
yourself...sort of.
Have you ever wondered who you share a day
with?
With a short time spent on research you can find who you, your friends and
most importantly the upcoming birthday person shares a birthday with.
A fun site to visit has made this easy for you. Get past the dated graphics and
Famous Birthdays
will deliver all you need.
[WARNING:Just don't spend too long on this addictive site.]
Another superb celebrity birthday goldmine is the
Internet Movie Data Base.
The previous warning applies double for this one!
Once you know who's who...
...here's where the fun starts. If they have a famous birthday on the same day
THERE'S YOUR PARTY THEME:
Celebrity Birthday. Can you imagine a room full of Marilyn Monroe's , or Tom
Hanks look-a-likes? You could have them come as characters from one of his 15,000 movies (I even
saw him in my brothers wedding video! It's TRUE, I tell you.).
If the celebrity in question is topical at the
moment then that is priceless. Picture Washington DC circa 1998 when the Monica
Gate hit the tabloids. Blue dresses and cigars everywhere!!
Tie ins with
TV Shows are popular for sharing a
birthday. I was invited to a Melrose Place gig when living in the wonderful
Australian city of Melbourne in the early 1990s. Did I like the show? Nope! Did
I know the show? Nope! Did I care that it was the final show ever? Not in the
slightest! Did I love the concept and enjoy celebrating a dear friend's 30th??
You BETCHA I DID !!!
They work spectacularly.
Best FAMOUS
Birthday SUGGESTION
You be the celebrity on
your birthday OR make someone else feel famous on theirs. Best
thing about keeping it local? The world need never know, only those that
matter ...matter!
