hilarieburton.jpgHappy Birthday actor Hilarie Burton

Born: July 1, 1982 in Sterling, Virginia, USA

Married to: Jeffrey Dean Morgan (2014 – present) (1 child)

QUOTES:

Her favorite holiday: “Fourth of July. My birthday is July first and my best friend’s birthday is July fifth so it’s always been a favorite holiday. It’s all about having a cooler full of sodas, hot dogs, and just hanging out and shooting off firecrackers, being low-key, watching the fireworks. There’s something about a holiday that isn’t all about how much money you spend.”

Their team’s good, but our team’s good-looking. (On the victory of the opposing team in the OTH Cast Super Bowl)

We are so defensive of one another because it’s that whole sibling thing where I can tease you and we can goof around, but if anybody else says a word . . . (on her One Tree Hill (2003) friends/costars)

QUOTES:

What I know in life runs the gamut of the “feminist experience”. The true meaning of feminism is this: to use your strong womanly image to gain strong results in society.

I don’t now if I’d recommend surgery – Women’s bodies are beautiful – I’ve had a love/hate relationship with my breasts my whole life. (New York Post)

I am the ultimate California girl, which is funny, being that I’m Canadian.

Happy Birthday: Hannah Murray

hannahmurray.jpgHappy Birthday actor Hannah Murray

Born: July 1, 1989 in Bristol, England, UK

Quote: I’ve read scripts that have full nudity, loads of violence, full of everything. But when it’s written in a clever way, it really works.

At the age of 16, Hannah Murray decided to pursue acting and she auditioned for Skins (2007), the debut series for new channel E4. She won the role of Cassie Ainsworth, a gentle, “spacey”, yet self-destructive teenager with an eating disorder. The role lasted 2 seasons on the show, when her generation was replaced with a new one. But until today, her character remains one of the greatest icons of the series. Murray can also be seen in Chatroom (2010), Clone (2010), Dark Shadows (2012) and Game of Thrones (2011).

Married to: Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini (7 July 2014 – present) (filed for divorce)

Ashley Cole (15 July 2006 – 3 September 2010) (divorced)

QUOTES:

I absolutely love my tattoos. The girls and I decided that the next time Girls Aloud have a No. 1, we’ll all get one done. I want us to get something that only makes sense if we all stand in line, though!

The past year [2004] has been the best ever. I feel like I’ve got a fairy godmother watching over me.

I can’t hurt any more than I’ve been hurt, I can’t cry any more than I’ve cried. I’ve been to the highest of highs and lowest of lows, so one day I’m going to find my middle ground and be happy.

[on drug addicts] I don’t have any sympathy for the addicts. That might sound harsh, but I don’t give a f***. If they’re in pain because of drugs, it’s self-inflicted. You know what you’re doing when you take it.

[on Simon Cowell] Simon is the most charismatic man I’ve ever met — it’s like he’s trancing you or something. It’s actually quite scary.
