Happy Birthday: Natasha Henstridge

natashahenstridge.jpgNatasha Henstridge

Born: August 15, 1974 in Springdale, Newfoundland, Canada

[on being raised in a small northern Canadian town] When I look back now, it was a wonderful place to grow up in terms of having freedom. It was one of those childhoods where you hopped on your bike and came home at dark. You walked to school, walked home, hung out with your friends. When I look at that now and the difference between that and how I’m raising my children, I’m really thrilled that I got to have that experience. I think 25 below zero was when they let us stay in for recess or lunch. One of the beauties of that is I’m a tough cookie. I can roll with the punches.

Happy Birthday: Emily Kinney

It’s definitely one of those things when you decide to be an actor that it would be really cool to be in a Broadway show or a series regular on a hit show.

Happy Birthday: Jennifer Lawrence

Born: August 15, 1990 in Louisville, Kentucky, USA

Yesterday, I had to do an interview. I was in a horrible mood. I couldn’t think of basic words. I could see my publicist in the background, mouthing things to say. They want you to be likable all the time, and I’m just not.

Happy Birthday: Ben Affleck

benaffleck.jpgBen Affleck

Born: August 15, 1972 in Berkeley, California, USA

Married to: Jennifer Garner (29 June 2005 – present) (filed for divorce) (3 children)

[on tabloid coverage of his life] It feels like being in a soap opera that you were unwittingly cast in and you have no choice about it. I get to watch my life like everyone else and think. “I can’t believe they did that”. And, for whatever reason, you become less special for movie audiences. It cheapens the brand if you want to look at it in a really crass sense. But I figure it has to go away at some point. Eventually someone will come along and have a sex tape or someone will play grab-ass with some kids and I’ll be off page one.
