Celebrity Birthdays

Say what you want about Kris Jenner - no, seriously, please say what you want about Kris Jenner! - but the savvy marketer of a mother turns 57 years old today.

The woman who convinced Kim Kardashian to star in a sex tape and somehow talked Fox into hiring Khloe Kardashian for The X Factor is nothing if not persuasive.

And perverse and attention-starved and shameless, some might say. And... where were we again? Oh, right. Kris is now 57! Send in your birthday wishes to the matriarch.

Among other celebrities turning one year older on November 5: Kevin Jonas (25) , Bryan Adams (53) and Art Garfunkel (71).

Hillary Clinton celebrates her 65th birthday today.

The wife of former President Bill Clinton and the candidate who barely lost out to Barack Obama for the Democratic nomination in 2008, Hillary has emerged as a wildly respected global ambassador.

This Secretary of State has earned praise from both sides of the aisle for her handling of complicated foreign matters and blatant examples of sexism. She's a staunch, respected advocate for women's rights around the world.

She can even recognize a solid set of hooters when she sees them.

So let's put our partisan dividers down for a moment and wish Hillary a very happy birthday. Send in your best wishes now as we all wonder:

Will she seek a higher office in 2016? Should she?

Light the Fireworks and engage in some Teenage Dreams.

Katy Perry turns 28 today!

The musical superstar celebrated the occasion by spending some time with the most powerful man on the planet in Las Vegas, as she played a prominent role this week at a Barack Obama rally in Las Vegas, donning a unique outfit that made it extra clear just who she supports in this election:

Obama hailed Perry as “a wonderful young lady” at the outset of his remarks and, regardless of your politics, it's hard to disagree. She's pretty darn cool and fun.

Tila Tequila turns 31 years old today and the former reality star has many things for which to be thankful.

Namely, that she's still alive.

The former reality star, who was likely chosen in many Celebrity Death Pools, has spent time in rehab and even faked her own suicide once. She makes Kim Kardashian look like someone NOT in need of attention.

But Tequila has now made it over three decades on this planet and that in itself is a worthy accomplishment for this troubled young woman.

Kim Kardashian, THG's favorite celebrity/arch nemesis, turns 32 years old today.

The talent-free reality star has been in the news lately for pretending to date Kanye West and for posing in a bikini. She's also been busy paying her intern to post updates on Facebook and Twitter.

For that, and on the anniversary of her birth, we salute Kim and we encourage readers to send in their best birthday wishes!
