| When it comes to charming, the Cardinal Fire Sign of Aries can teach a lesson or two. And it is precisely this quality that has led to such a successful career for Russell Crowe who turns 52 today! Russell Crowe is not just a Hollywood A-lister but an actor who has had a very long and successful career, and one that has been recognized by the Academy Awards. Many think it was the big screen that started his career but this 51-year-old has been working in the business since the age of 5. That's a true Aries trait! He's received the Best Actor award for his role as Maximus in Gladiator, and he also played the role of Javert in the 2012 hit Les Miserables. Additionally his versatile talents have been seen in American Gangster, Cinderella Man, and also Master and Commander. He's also one of the only Hollywood actors who has been protected by actual Secret Service agents when his family was threatened by al-Qaeda. Happy birthday, Russell! If today is your birthday too, you share it with not just this movie legend. Jackie Chan turns 62 today, director Francis Ford Coppola turns 77 today, and the late but oh so great Billie Holiday was also born on this great day in 1905! Happy birthday, Aries! |
