Brilliantly lit from stem to stern she looked like a sagging birthday cake.

Lucy took care of me on the set and made sure that none of the crew cussed around me. She also had birthday parties for me and made sure that they were well attended.

With a recent birthday I've been acting now for twenty years.

I am a big popcorn fanatic. I love popcorn. In fact one year for my birthday my husband bought me one of those big popcorn machines like they have in movie theaters.

I was fired by 'America's Next Top Model' on my birthday.

On a royal birthday every house must fly a flag or the owner would be dragged to a police station and be fined twenty-five rubles.

My brother got a .22 for his 12th birthday I got a .22. He got a hunting knife I got a hunting knife.

When I was in elementary school I used to write letters to myself. I'd write letters and go 'Dear Kristen-at-16-years-old happy birthday. I hope you're doing something.'

For my birthday this year my girlfriends - who knew I'd just inherited my dad's turntable - gave me a carton of albums like 'Blue Kentucky Girl ' by Emmylou Harris and 'Off the Wall ' by Michael Jackson. It's all stuff we grew up with. I mean you can't have a music collection without Prince's 'Purple Rain' - it just can't be done!
