Nobel Peace Prize winner and former president Jimmy Carter (pictured) is 84 on Oct. 1. What have you done lately?
The princess of perkiness , Kelly Ripa, is 38 on Oct. 2. Seriously—do you think she and Rachael Ray are the same person?
His lite-rock lordship Sting is 57 on Oct. 2. Loved the Police reunion—although that still doesn’t excuse “(Everything I Do) I Do It For You.”
Singer Ashlee Simpson-Wentz is 24 on Oct. 3—and if anything is even less interesting than her sister, if that’s possible.
Atlanta’s neo-soul queen India Arie, the musical equivalent of self-empowerment guru Oprah Winfrey, is 33 on Oct. 3.
Gwen Stefani is 39 on Oct. 3. See, girls? Start a mediocre ska-pop band, marry a third-rate grunge leftover and you, too, can be famous!
Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee is 46 on Oct. 3. Will he triumph over Ludacris on Planet Green’s “Battleground Earth.” Oh, the anticipation is simply too great.
