Today’s Star-Packed Birthday Bash! Meet 10 Famous Folks Born on May 16

Janet Jackson? Total superstar! She shook up music with her killer dance moves and powerful songs from her albums Control and Rhythm Nation 1814. Plus, she acted in movies like Poetic Justice to keep things spicy. Fun twist: she wanted to be a race-horse jockey before jumping into showbiz!

You know Pierce Brosnan as James Bond, right? The guy’s got style, charm, and a knack for action. But he’s also a painter! Before hopping into acting, he tried his hand at commercial illustration. Oh, and he’s green-friendly, donating his art to charity.

Megan Fox burst onto the scene in Transformers and never looked back. She's got the look, the talent, and a fun little fact—her thumbs are quirky thanks to a thing called brachydactyly type D. Talk about unique!

Love him or love to debate him, Tucker Carlson knows how to hold a news spotlight. He used to want to be a spy (wink, CIA!). Now he runs his own network and stirs up conversations nightly.

David Boreanaz went from walking his dog to playing a vampire (yep, that happened!). He’s been everything from a brooding Angel to a crime-solving FBI agent. Now, he leads the SEAL Team with serious style.

From Beverly Hills 90210’s Donna Martin to reality TV face and bestselling author, Tori Spelling’s done it all. Fun fact: Her dad got her an acting coach when she was just six. Talk about a head start!

Melanie Lynskey is the New Zealand star who’s been winning hearts since Heavenly Creatures. She’s got awards and Emmy noms for days. Oh, and she’s been a pescetarian forever after learning about sheep farming as a kid. Interesting, huh?

Remember the kid from Love Actually? That’s Thomas Brodie-Sangster, who also learned drums for the movie—pretty cool, right? He’s now an Emmy-nominated actor thanks to The Queen's Gambit. Total glow-up!

Joey Graceffa jumped from vlogging to starring in his own mystery series. He’s also a bestselling author! Crazy fact: As a kid, he got lead poisoning from eating paint chips. Pretty wild start for an internet star.

Krist Novoselic rocked out as Nirvana’s bass player and then shocked everyone by becoming a licensed pilot. From grunge legend to flying high, his career took off in every direction!
