greggsulkin.jpgHappy Birthday actor Gregg Sulkin

Born: May 29, 1992 in London, England, UK

Quotes:

[on his Jewish upbringing] The Jewish community is all about love and family, which is the most important thing in my life too.

I know when I have kids, when I’m older, I’m going to encourage them to play sports because I think it teaches you a lot. It teaches you discipline, teamwork, and that there’s really no ‘I’ in team.

I didn’t ever think about being an actor. But I fell in love with it when I realized how amazing, difficult, and interesting it is.

The fans on ‘Pretty Little Liars’ were the craziest fans I’ve ever met in my life in the best possible way. The dedication that those fans have to the show and the characters is amazing.

I love sports, and when I was playing soccer, I was always trying to be the leader on the team and the one who takes control.

If I had any advice to give people, it would be to relax; never treat an audition like an emergency. There will be plenty more in your career. If you think you messed up, you probably didn’t. And if you did mess up, it’s not the end of the world.

Ever since I was young, I played sports.

Best Quotes:

[as one spokesperson for the transgender movement] Some folks, they just don’t understand. And they need to get to know us as human beings. Others are just going to be opposed to us forever. But I do believe in the humanity of people and in people’s capacity to love and to change.
