The Birthday Crew You Didn’t Know Shared July 12!

Michelle Rodriguez is basically the definition of bad-ass, showing up as the toughest characters you love to root for. She smashed it on Girlfight, then zoomed into our hearts in Fast & Furious and Avatar. Fun twist? She almost became a writer instead of an action star!

Remember Eric from That '70s Show? Yup, that’s Topher Grace showing off his smooth acting chops. He’s rocked everything from serious dramas to playing Venom’s other half. And yeah, his name 'Topher' came from a school nickname—it’s just cooler than Christopher!

Rachel nailed it as The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and is gearing up to be the new Lois Lane. Oh, and here’s a curveball: she was on her high school wrestling team. Talk about brains AND brawn!

Loni’s got jokes and smarts—she used to be an electrical engineer before making us laugh on The Real. She’s proof you can totally switch gears and shine!

Malala’s courage is next level. Surviving a crazy tough ordeal, she turned things around to fight for girls’ education worldwide. Quick fun fact: her name means “grief-stricken,” named after a fierce Afghan folk hero!

Lee’s got moves on and off screen, starring in action-packed flicks like G.I. Joe. Bonus: he’s also a Taekwondo fan, so don’t mess with him!

Cheryl soared as one of Charlie's Angels and even lent her voice to an animated rock band. She also uses her stardom to help kids in need—pretty impressive, right?

Phil’s the mastermind behind The Lego Movie and Spider-Verse magic. He and his buddy Christopher Miller met in college, and the rest is hilarious, animated legend.

Natalie started out volunteering in a maternity ward (what a switch!), then busted onto screens with Death Race and Under the Dome. Talk about a cool career jump!

Before stealing scenes on Shameless and Reba, Steve had a basketball scholarship! Now he’s scoring points making us laugh and root for him in movies and shows.
