10 Celebs Born on December 16 That You’ll Definitely Want to Know About

Meet Kai Cenat, the guy who turned streaming into an epic comedy show packed with energy and internet slang goodness. He's basically the original "Rizz" boss, coining a viral word that even Oxford gave a high five to. The Twitch world can’t get enough of him.

Krysten Ritter is the cool cat who nails both drama and comedy — from Marvel’s Jessica Jones to the intense vibes of Breaking Bad. Fun fact? She was discovered at a mall when she was just 15. Pretty sure she wasn’t just shopping for snacks!

Theo James is that charming British actor who made us all fall for Tobias Eaton in Divergent. Not just a pretty face, he once cleaned up for the NHS before becoming a star. Oh, and he was also a band's lead singer. Talk about multi-talented!

J. B. Smoove brings the laughs like no other—remember Leon Black from Curb Your Enthusiasm? Before that, he was selling fire extinguishers and mixing perfumes. Who knew that smelling good and being funny could come from the same guy?

Mats Hummels is a German football pro who was a defensive rock on the field (and he even snagged a World Cup trophy). Fun twist? He started out as a striker before becoming the defensive beast we know and respect.

Paul van Dyk made trance music the party’s heartbeat with hits like "For an Angel." Before dropping beats worldwide, he was training to be a carpenter. So yeah, he builds beats and stuff. Pretty cool combo!

Benjamin Bratt has the kind of charm that sticks with you from Law & Order to traffic-filled thrillers. His activist mom even dragged him to a historic protest when he was just six, so you know there’s some serious heart behind those roles.

From Logan’s superhero grit to Indiana Jones’ wild adventures, James Mangold directs with flair. At 12, he was already filming with a Super-8 camera, starring the mean kids who picked on him. Revenge through filmmaking? Classic move.

Miranda Otto slayed as Éowyn in Lord of the Rings and brought serious drama to Homeland. She dreamt of ballet but had to switch gears because of scoliosis. Luckily, acting suits her warrior spirit way better.

Lalah Hathaway’s voice? Next-level magic. She can sing multiple notes at once with a rare technique called overtone singing. Grammy awards? Yes. Jazz, R&B, and then some—she’s got the whole musical spectrum covered.
