Erykah Badu, The Neo-Soul Queen, Turns 55
Erykah Badu’s voice is like a cozy soul hug that took the music world by storm. Her album Baduizm scored her loads of Grammys and a forever spot in neo-soul history. Oh, and she used to teach drama before hitting big time. So cool, right?
Michael Bolton, The Voice That Could Melt Hearts, Turns 73
Michael Bolton’s got pipes—seriously powerful ones that made him a global superstar. He’s sold millions of records and started making music when he was just a kid fooling around with a saxophone. Little dude with big dreams!
James Wan, Horror Maestro and Aquaman Boss, Turns 49
James Wan pretty much invented scary with Saw and Insidious, then switched gears to make Aquaman a splashy hit. Before he got all famous, his first movie even won an underground film festival award. Talk about starting with a bang!
Max Martin, The Hit-Making Machine, Turns 55
Max Martin basically writes the soundtrack of your life with one hit after another. This Swedish wizard even won a fancy music prize and picked up the French horn as a kid. Who knew?
Yeat, The Rap Game’s New Weirdo, Turns 26
Yeat’s got a sound that’s all his own—and it’s catching fire everywhere. Fun fact: his dad’s also a musician, just under the quirky name Beast Clouds. Talent must run in the family!
Teresa Palmer, The Aussie Actress Who Does It All, Turns 40
Teresa Palmer acts in everything from heart-tuggers to fantasy series. Before nailing Hollywood roles, she was running the show (well, a store) at Cotton On. Talk about a glow-up!
Nate Ruess, Voice of Indie Pop Anthems, Turns 44
Nate Ruess is the guy behind sing-along tunes that made early 2010s indie pop unforgettable. He fronted fun. and before that, led a band called The Format. Basically, he’s got indie cred for days.
Tim Commerford, The Rock Bass Hero, Turns 58
Tim’s bass skills help fuel hard-hitting rock bands everyone loves. When he’s not rocking out, he’s probably shredding mountain trails on his bike—he’s been doing it for 30 years. Talk about endurance!
Maz Jobrani, Comedy Whiz and Cultural Commentator, Turns 54
Maz makes you laugh and think at the same time. He almost went full-on academic with a PhD but dropped that to chase comedy dreams. Glad he did, because his "Axis of Evil" specials are comedy gold.
Tim Kaine, Politician and Spanish Speaker Extraordinaire, Turns 68
Tim Kaine’s resume includes being Virginia’s governor and a US Senator. Plus, he rocked the 2016 VP spot. Here’s a curveball: he’s fluent in Spanish thanks to a mission trip in Honduras. Multitalented much?
