Born: July 27, 1984 in Boston, Massachusetts, USA

When I was performing on tour with Justin Timberlake, we did a show in Boston, Massachusetts at the TD Banknorth Garden. I’m from Boston, and just a few years prior to the performance, I’d been back home in my living room trying to learn JT’s choreography. To return to my hometown performing with my favorite artist in the world was amazing. It taught me that anything is possible!

(On Whale Rider) I’ve been waiting for this film for a long time. It’s fun to go off and put on a disguise and pretend to be someone else, but to be able to get back to myself and my culture, that was just more than really nice, y’know – it was vital.

Happy Birthday: Jonathan Rhys Meyers

jonathanrhysmeyers.jpgJonathan Rhys Meyers

Born: July 27, 1977 in Dublin, Ireland

In order to avoid the boyish and somewhat androgynous junkies and weak-willed characters he found himself typecast as, he underwent a fitness regime in 2004 and gained and maintained about 25 extra pounds of muscle, so he can also be considered for more masculine roles.

Born: July 27, 1984 in Boston, Massachusetts, USA

I started doing yoga in college, so that has just become a staple of a self-care routine for my mind and my body. My body craves it at this point, so I do it two to three times a week, sometimes more. I practice Vinyasa style yoga and sometimes mix it up.
